Do we need to stop using Mailchimp?

Which member information can connect to Mailchimp?
We will review the supported fields, audience mapping and subscription handling with your team. Bring an example campaign and the member groups you need to reach to your demo.
Which campaign should we connect first?

A general mailing list does not explain the member relationship
A general mailing list rarely tells the whole member story. Campaign planning becomes harder when household records, interests and outreach live in separate places.
The audience is rebuilt for every send
When campaign planning begins with another spreadsheet review, staff spend time organizing contacts before writing the message. A recurring renewal or program campaign repeats the same preparation work.
One message tries to serve everyone
Current members, interested households and program participants may need different next steps. A broad list can hide the reason a particular person would find the campaign useful.
Membership changes complicate list decisions
Operational status and campaign subscription are different pieces of context. Without an agreed approach to audience mapping, staff can be unsure how each should affect a send.
Bring a real example.
In your personal walkthrough, we’ll explore:
- Member audience and segmentation planning
- Renewal and program campaign journeys
- Your existing Mailchimp campaign workflow
- Audience mapping and subscription handling review

Which campaign should we connect first?
Choose a recurring campaign with a defined audience and one useful next step. A familiar renewal or program message gives your team a concrete way to compare preparation work and identify where member context would make the campaign more relevant.
How should we check whether the intended audience makes sense?
Use representative member examples to explain who would benefit from the message and why. Include someone outside the intended group in that review; clear inclusion and exclusion criteria make the audience easier for the team to understand.
Where should the campaign’s call to action lead?
Choose the page or member journey that supports the promised action, such as renewal or program registration. Follow that destination as a recipient before sending so an interested reader can understand what to do next.
