Mailchimp

Give Mailchimp a finished campaign, not another assembly job.

Build and approve the campaign in Better Email. Export a coded Mailchimp template, or create a draft campaign with the destination settings already filled in.

How it works

Build and export campaigns to Mailchimp

Your team works in Better Email. Mailchimp receives approved campaign HTML with its subject, preview text, audience, segment, sender settings, and Mailchimp syntax when draft creation is enabled.

Change the priority, not just the pace

Move specialist capacity away from campaign production and toward strategy and audiences, segments, testing, and sending. The platform specialist keeps control of the work that belongs in Mailchimp.
