See ChimpSync in action

With ChimpSync you can create multiple MailChimp campaigns for every Salesforce campaign. For all campaigns created with ChimpSync you will receive summary statistics of corresponding MailChimp campaigns. These statistics are recorded in Campaign History records.

For each new MailChimp campaign you have an option to transfer subscriber activity back to Salesforce. You can do this by leaving the Sync Member Activity on the Campaign page always checked. If you uncheck it, your new campaigns will only sync summary stats. Before you sync you need to be sure you selected MailChimp list.

You have different scenarios, depending on the sync option you choose.

1. Create new MailChimp campaignThis creates a new MailChimp campaing with all members selected as a segment of the list. Once your sync is finished you have a campaign waiting for you in MailChimp.
   • Login to MailChimp
   • Go to Campaigns
   • ChimpSync created a campaign with same name + date of the sync + segment with Salesforce
   • Edit campaign, add design and send
2. Update members on MailChimp campaign. If you add new members to Salesforce campaign or you remove some of them, and you still have the last synced campaign in draft in MailChimp, then you can change the segment by selecting the second option.
3. Sync reportsWhen campaign is successfully sent from MailChimp you can start syncing back the reports. When your sync is finished you must refresh the page in your browser to show you the results.

New Campaign History custom object – Used for storing summary statistics

Sync Member Activity field on Salesforce standard Campaign object – when checked all subscriber activity of the MailChimp campaign will be synced back as records on ChimpSync Campaign Member Statistics.

Visualforce page component on Contact and Lead page layout shows all lists that a Contact or Lead is subscribed to, and all Campaign history with member activity. This feature gives you all MailChimp history on Contact or Lead without burning any of your Salesforce storage limits.

Create multiple MailChimp campaigns from one Salesforce campaign

You can use the same Salesforce campaign and it’s members to create multiple MailChimp campaigns. This is especially useful if you send out regular newsletters to the your customers. You can just add new members to the Salesforce campaign and create a brand new MailChimp campaign every time you need to send out your newsletter.

Updating members on MailChimp campaigns

You can just update members on the campaign which is still a draft in MailChimp. If you have already created a new MailChimp campaign using ChimpSync, and it is still a draft, you can still add or remove members and sync them to your MailChimp campaign.

Updating reports

Every time you use ChimpSync to update reports, all Campaign History records will be updated. If Sync Member Activity is checked also all subscriber activity will be synced as ChimpSync Campaign Member Statistics records.
