Bring your marketing and sales together with the MailChimp integration by UPilot
The engagement of a prospect with your marketing activities is valuable information for your sales and support staff. That information can now be made available inside UPilot, providing your sales people with vital information.
Clicks and opens from MailChimp are automatically associated with their respective records in UPilot. You can also add a new contact to a mailing list with a single click. Want to create a new list in MailChimp? No problem – you can do that from UPilot itself!
This means that these insights are no longer limited to marketing departments alone and Mailchimp can be effectively used to what it does best – crafting and sending beautiful campaigns.
Using our legendary easy admin controls, the UPilot admins can decide who gets to see this information inside UPilot.
We built the MailChimp integrations because we love using MailChimp for ourselves. What was missing was the ease of adding contacts to a list without having to export and reimport each time as well as seeing the activities of any particular contact we wanted to focus on.
