How to manage your contacts in Mailchimp
As your list of email subscribers grows, it becomes increasingly important to keep track of your contacts and segment them into groups. This process, called contact management, helps you send more relevant and targeted emails to your subscribers.
It also helps you avoid sending too many emails to unengaged subscribers, which can lead to them marking your messages as spam. In this article, we’ll show you how to manage your contacts in Mailchimp.
When you first create an account with Mailchimp, you’ll be asked to add a contact list. This is where you’ll store all of the information about your email subscribers.
You can add contacts manually or import them from a CSV or Excel file. If you have an existing contact list in another email service provider, you can also import those contacts into Mailchimp.
Once your contacts are in Mailchimp, you can segment them into groups so that you can send more targeted emails. For example, you could create a group for people who live in a certain city or who have purchased a particular product from your website.
You can also add tags to individual contacts so that you can keep track of their interests and preferences. For example, you could tag someone as “interested in product X” or “likes type Y of email content”.
Tracking this information will help you send more relevant and targeted emails to your subscribers, which will lead to higher engagement rates and fewer people unsubscribing from your list.
How to track your results in Mailchimp
After you’ve sent out your campaign, it’s important to track how it’s performing so you can learn what works and what doesn’t for your audience. In this article, we’ll show you how to track your results in Mailchimp.
To start, log in to your Mailchimp account and go to the campaign you want to track. Then, click the View Report button.
This will take you to your campaign results page, where you can see an overview of how your campaign performed. Here, you can see things like how many people opened your email, clicked on any links, unsubscribed from your list, or marked your email as spam.
To get even more detailed information about your results, click on the View Email Stats link.
On the Email Stats page, you can see things like a detailed breakdown of who opened your email and when, which links were clicked the most, and what devices people used to view your email.
You can also see a list of everyone who unsubscribed from your list or marked your email as spam on this page. If you see a lot of people doing either of these things, it’s a good indication that you need to make some changes to your campaigns.
That’s everything you need to know about how to track your results in Mailchimp!
