Automatic mailing of letters. What is automatic mailing and how can I set it up? and little tricks
Concisely and succinctly about the principles of Lead Scoring in a 90-second video:
So, we have finished with the theory, now let's move on to practice - we need to automate Lead Scoring.
To do this, go to a paid Mailchimp account. The minimum paid account costs $ 10. You can register with Mailchimp using our partner link (Powered by MailChimp), activate the minimum tariff plan and immediately receive $ 30. to your account.
Now that you've activated your account, let's go directly to the settings:
Step 1: Go to Mailchimp. Select “Lists” then “Settings” and “List fields and * | MERGE | * tags”
Step 2: Create a new field and uncheck “Visible”.
Step 3: Define a sales funnel. To do this, you need: an identifier for a segment (Lead Score) and a behavioral attribute that characterizes this segment.
In our case, the segments are named “Prospect”, “Warm”, “Customer”. To update the identifier for each of the stages - add the Lead Score field, as we did in step 2.
This is the code for the “Prospect” segment:
Ready! In the following example, we will describe how to use this option to configure advanced automation. Already, you can identify segments based on their actions and use this data in various e-mail campaigns.
2. Advanced automation in Mailchimp based on actions
For this, user or behavioral data and the Lead Score parameter, which we described in the first automation method, can be used. For example, we want to send a letter not to the entire “Prospects” segment, but only to those who have performed certain actions.
Step 1: Go to the “Automation” section and select “Custom workflow”.
Step 2: Configure the trigger:
Here you can configure the action after which the message will be sent. If you have configured the Lead Score as described in the first example, then you can select the item “Merge field value changes”.
Then select “Based on merge field” - “Lead Score” from the drop-down menu. In the “When merge field value is” field, enter the name of the segment to which actions the mailing list will be linked to.
3. Autocomplete Landing Page Forms Using Mailchimp
You've probably seen examples when, when you go from a letter to the landing page, the fields of the registration form are automatically filled with your user data. Let's see how it works:
Step 1: Instead of just adding a link to the landing page in your email, specify a parameter for storing information (http://yourdomain.com/?email=*|EMAIL|*), as shown in the example below:
Step 2: Now, when a visitor follows this link, we need to enter their details into the form. Add the following script to your landing page:
