In this post, we will answer these questions and more. At Redegal, as a certified Mailchimp partner, we have the expertise to help you get the very best out of the platform. Get ready to discover how Mailchimp can become the driving force behind a comprehensive marketing strategy, and how our team can guide you every step of the way.

What is Mailchimp? From email marketing to automation 

Mailchimp began as an email marketing tool, but over time it has evolved into an all-in-one marketing platform. It enables you to create campaigns, automate processes, manage audiences, design landing pages, launch digital ads and even build websites, all from a single, intuitive and accessible interface.

Mailchimp brings together everything you need to manage your brand’s digital marketing efficiently. It is the tool that enables you to create tailored experiences at every stage of the customer journey and is suitable for all types of businesses.

How to maximise results with a Mailchimp strategy

What was once an email-focused tool is now a complete ecosystem for building and nurturing customer relationships. These are some of the features of Mailchimp.

1. Email marketing 

Although Mailchimp has grown significantly, email marketing remains one of its core strengths and the foundation upon which many of its other features are built.

Mailchimp offers different types of campaigns to suit every need and support effective email marketing strategies: from traditional emails for promotions or newsletters to automated campaigns triggered by user behaviour, such as welcome emails or cart reminders.

2. Marketing Automation

Automation in Mailchimp allows you to build complex journeys or workflows that guide your customers through a personalised experience, triggering specific actions based on their interactions. This advanced functionality turns every stage of the customer journey into an opportunity to connect more effectively.

These automated workflows are especially useful for:

• Remarketing: Reach out again to users who visited your website but did not take the desired action, such as making a purchase or signing up.
• Cart Abandonment: Recover lost sales with personalised automated reminders.
• Welcome New Subscribers:  Introduce your brand with a series of scheduled emails from the very first interaction.
• Customer Loyalty: Strengthen your relationship with customers through exclusive offers, birthday greetings, or special content.
• Behavioural Segmentation: Personalise every interaction based on each user’s click history, site visits, or purchases.

3. Content and Website Creation

Mailchimp goes beyond email, helping you attract new leads and strengthen your online presence. You can create optimised landing pages to capture contacts or promote products, as well as build basic websites ideal for businesses seeking a quick and simple solution. Additionally, it offers customisable forms and pop-ups to grow your subscriber list and effectively capture the attention of your visitors.

4. CRM and Audience Management

A successful marketing strategy is built on a deep understanding of your audience. Mailchimp provides tools to manage your contacts and uncover valuable insights that help you connect with them more effectively.

• Audiences: The foundation of your strategy starts in Mailchimp, where all your contacts are brought together. For best results, maintain a single main audience and organise it using tags and segments to target your communications more effectively.
• Tags and Segments: Tags allow you to categorise contacts manually or automatically (for example, “VIP Customer”), while segments are dynamic groups based on specific criteria (for example, “Recent Customers in London”), making it easier to run highly targeted campaigns.
• Contact Profiles:  Each contact has a detailed profile that includes demographic information, interaction history, website behaviour and purchase history, giving you a complete understanding of your customers and enabling more personalised, effective marketing.

5. Boost your online sales

Mailchimp integrates natively with major e-commerce platforms such as Shopify, WooCommerce, PrestaShop  and others. It automatically imports customer and order data, allowing you to create segments based on purchase history. In addition, it generates personalised product recommendations based on user behaviour and automates reminders to recover abandoned carts, helping to increase completed purchases.

6.  Performance Insights

Digital marketing is meaningless without the ability to measure results and learn from them. This email marketing tool provides detailed reports to help you understand the performance of your campaigns in Mailchimp.

Mailchimp provides key metrics such as open rates, clicks, bounces, unsubscribes, conversions and revenue generated for online stores, allowing you to measure the performance of your campaigns.

In addition, its heatmaps show where users click within your emails, helping you optimise design and element placement. You can also compare your results with industry averages to understand your position in the market. For a more complete view of the customer journey, Mailchimp integrates seamlessly with Google Analytics.
