Great stuff again! I finished my 1st lead magnet yesterday and set up Mailchimp to collect emails. Then Mailchimp wasn't working today so I set up a ConvertKit form to collect emails. I don't have an audience yet but I'm really happy that I've gone through these steps. Now I have Mailchimp and ConvertKit set up so if one doesn't work, I can fall back on the other. Thanks for making such amazing content.
This has to be the most MASSIVE VALUE, real actionable free video you have ever done! I realize I've been using a fraction of Mailchimp's capabilities for years. This one goes in my Favorites Tab and will I have to watch it multiple times in the future. Thanks for all you do!
I still have one question after watching this video: What if I end my automated email sequence with 2 emails: the first is a pitch to my training product, and the second is a reminder that the discount will expire (exploiting urgency). If the lead buys my course on the first pitch email, I don't want him to receive the second reminder email since he already bought it...! How can I automate that? Is it too advanced for Mailchimp?
This is a bit more advanced and Mailchimp doesn't handle it perfectly. Ideally when the purchase something they get added to a NEW list of "customers" or "buyers" and then your second email will filter out people on that buyers list. But honestly, I didn't do this for like 7 years and it was never a problem.
Hi Graham - I just wanted to say a big thank you for making this. After applying these concepts, I grew my email list by over 500 people in one day.I generally have about 7 people join each day. It was a HUGE help and I can’t thank you enough. Have a great week.
Hi Gragam, Just wanted to drop a comment and to let you know your channel is nothing short of pure VALUE. Im using you as my online mentor as I continue to grow my business online. Thank you!
This video is superb. Thank you so much for sharing. I'm a professional freelance musician and educator looking to effectively capitalize on digital marketing. I just can't compliment you enough on how well this video was made, and how much your entrepreneurship shines through. Subscribed!
Hey Graham! I've been overwhelmed by idea of creating my email list and this completely took the guess work out of it. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. You're a life saver. :)
This has helped me so much! I have been trying to figure out the whole welcome email and stuff and when I did it on the regular campaign it wasn’t doing the right thing so I am super glad I found this video! Very informative :)
Wow ... really great Graham, I was in dueling mixes for 9 months and I was a blast... I was what I needed to fined tuned and get mine confidence to open my studio to the public. Now when I have to do this Email think I was really afraid to even how I DO THIS...Art Davis recommended this video to me , to get me in the right way ... I did it with your help... Can't thank you enough for what you do to help us... really thanks Man...I live in Chicago but when I visit florida would like to give you a visit... if time if right...Thanks Jose
This is so good Graham. Thank you for sharing this, its going to be huge for me. You're really helping us like a child who needs help learning how to walk. Most of us are just crawling like a baby through life not really knowing what we're doing.
Eric van Riessen Thank you for all your beautiful work on youtbe. With mailchimp you can also register all your new subscribers whether they now or in a few months if first send a number of emails in which your best work is. So that everyone can see that work first. If so how do I do that and can they be included in the rest of the email?
Hi Graham. I've recently discovered your channel. Great content. Thank you. I was just wondering if you are still using MailChimp? If not, which mailing system do you recommend now? Thanks.
I would be very careful with telling people to get freebie instead of "subscribe to a newsletter". If there are email campaigns to follow and your leads are not informed about it when they give you an email, it seems to be a GDPR issue.
First off, well done on the clear presentation. I'm new to the marketing space and this is golden! I know this maybe silly but can you create or find a free offer to promote as long as it's giving value? Do you have a preference over one over the other?
@@GrahamCochrane Could you possibly do a video on how to create your own value product to give to your customers or what is a way to leverage using other products you may find helpful?
very professional Graham. Thanks. I'm trying to get freelancers to set type of system up for me, but it always seems they want me to tell them how to do it instead. My problem is bootstrapping the organizing part. I need a CRM to plan correctly, but so many choices and integration abilities/limitations. I've got gsuite but do u have any suggestions on which would be good to start and scale? Without having to manually enter data into both places? And-any freelancer suggestions - OMG that is like herding cats.
Hi. Can I add a button to my business Facebook page as this is where I do most of my customer interaction and I think I could build my email list by offering many different brochure downloads and at the same time collecting their email address? Thanks in advance
Q1- I have an Excel menu with 70,000 emails. When I have two ad campaigns you must enter each email separately. Or is there a way to upload the file once and MailChimp will format it. Q2- If this list contains some Excel emails that have expired or not working or incorrect in writing Is MailChimp will exclude them from the list. Or the ad campaign will crash because there are invalid emails
1. You can upload them all to Mailchimp at once. Just take your Excel file and save it as a CSV file. Then upload that to Mailchimp where it says import subscribers 2. Mailchimp will exclude any bad emails.
Graham, very interesting and informative. I have one question: how can I apply mail chimp to customized 4 - step email campaign we are creating at my company ? Thanks much!
When you convert to another provider what happens to all your emails? And I thought that Kajabi already had this service imbedded. Or if I get Kajabi do I still need something like mail chimp?
This is my question too. I have kajabi now so do I need mail chimp (or convertkit) to add opt in email pages to my wix website? Or does kajabi do this? Ps-your videos have been a lifeline for just starting out. Thank you! Edit: never mind...I just found another video you created that reviews kajabi vs mail chimp and it answered all my questions! Thanks Graham for the great content.
So, this is from roughly 2 years ago. The UI on your screen does not look like the UI on my screen. I can't seem to find "List" as a menu option anywhere. Any update on that?
Hey Graham, great vid as always! I want to add something maybe it can help someone out there. You can actually provide the download directly in the thank you email on mailchimp. This works great if you 're just starting out and don't have a website to link to but want to instead build a list from UA-cam or Facebook.
Is there an email marketing tool (like Mailchimp) that allows you for free to upload a custom template? (Mailchimp used to, but now you have to buy the standard subscription 😒)
How do I get my subscriber the free PDF that I am providing? I want to do this in my final welcome email, but not sure how to get my PDF on a web link. Someone please help!
Great tutorial, Graham. One question: Is it necessary to upgrade to a paid account for replies/conversations--to actually view audience replies to "how can I help you?" Seems like it's necessary but I might be missing something.
Excelent video! This July I just started a blog www.pilarnavarrete.com, to share free printables base on my watercolor artwork. Do I need to create a new campaign for each free printable? What happen with the persons that have already subscribed? Do they get the new printable as well? Even though, I only have one subscriber in my blog (hopefully it will grow over time) I would like to know what happen. Sorry I am not tech savvy. Thank you in advance.
This was Incredibly Helpful..Thank You!!! There's a lot to learn when you're not techy and you're starting your own business.

Hey mate. I think you can automate the emails to send when someone clicks or doesn't click a link...
Yes! That was my hope - to add massive value!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Graham, you offer so much value, and I am so grateful for you!

So if I get Kajabi, is Mailchimp still preferred or will Kajabi built in mail service be adequate?
Kajabi will be perfect for you. I use it to run this business email!
This was fantastic. Thank you!
You're most welcome!
Great stuff sir!
Appreciate your video!!
Thanks for watching!
very informative video

graham, you should do a new video with an update, since mailchimp has really updated their site
I'm a RecordingRevolution fan
Awesome!
Hi Graham. I've recently discovered your channel. Great content. Thank you. I was just wondering if you are still using MailChimp? If not, which mailing system do you recommend now? Thanks.
Awesome! These days I’ve moved everything over to Kajabi. Including email.

What could be the lead in an NGO that works with children?
What kind of offers can I mention if the email marketing is for a hospital to pitch them to book an appointment? Need your suggestions
I would be very careful with telling people to get freebie instead of "subscribe to a newsletter". If there are email campaigns to follow and your leads are not informed about it when they give you an email, it seems to be a GDPR issue.
All that's needed is a simple line of text that states by signing up for the freebie you will also be receiving weekly emails.
First off, well done on the clear presentation. I'm new to the marketing space and this is golden! I know this maybe silly but can you create or find a free offer to promote as long as it's giving value? Do you have a preference over one over the other?
Absolutely - as long as you're giving value you're fine.

Can we use mailchimp(email marketing) for ebay product?
Hi. Can I add a button to my business Facebook page as this is where I do most of my customer interaction and I think I could build my email list by offering many different brochure downloads and at the same time collecting their email address? Thanks in advance
Yes, you can add a Subscribe or Learn More button on your FB page and have it link to wherever you like.

Looks like my dashboard is different to yours! Can't find half the tabs you mention :-(
I know they keep changing the layout
@@GrahamCochrane Thanks Graham. Finally worked it out. The tabs now have different names and embedded in different places.
Why I don't see 'List' on my Mailchimp dashboard?
Same here. I just see 'audience".
Thank you!!
Graham, very interesting and informative. I have one question: how can I apply mail chimp to customized 4 - step email campaign we are creating at my company ? Thanks much!
Hi Graham, great content, really enjoying it. Do you still use Mailchimp even though you're using Kajabi now? Thanks
No. Two years ago I switched to Convertkit. But I did use Mailchimp and Kajabi
When you convert to another provider what happens to all your emails? And I thought that Kajabi already had this service imbedded. Or if I get Kajabi do I still need something like mail chimp?
This is my question too. I have kajabi now so do I need mail chimp (or convertkit) to add opt in email pages to my wix website? Or does kajabi do this? Ps-your videos have been a lifeline for just starting out. Thank you!

So, this is from roughly 2 years ago. The UI on your screen does not look like the UI on my screen. I can't seem to find "List" as a menu option anywhere. Any update on that?
I believe it's under "Audience" now.
I have more than one website. do I need a separate account for each website?
Not necessarily. You can create multiple lists inside of your Kajabi account.
Thanks for the information.
My pleasure!
Hey Graham, great vid as always! I want to add something maybe it can help someone out there. You can actually provide the download directly in the thank you email on mailchimp. This works great if you 're just starting out and don't have a website to link to but want to instead build a list from UA-cam or Facebook.
Thanks for sharing!
Hi can I create multiple signup forms for different tags and subgroups? if yes where do I go?
You can - but in Mailchimp they each have to be different Lists. As opposed to subgroups on a main list.
Is there an email marketing tool (like Mailchimp) that allows you for free to upload a custom template? (Mailchimp used to, but now you have to buy the standard subscription 😒)
How do I get my subscriber the free PDF that I am providing? I want to do this in my final welcome email, but not sure how to get my PDF on a web link. Someone please help!
in case anyone needs this
mailchimp.com/help/send-a-file-to-new-subscribers/
Graham! This could kajabi solve this problem of using Mailchimp?
Great tutorial, Graham. One question: Is it necessary to upgrade to a paid account for replies/conversations--to actually view audience replies to "how can I help you?" Seems like it's necessary but I might be missing something.
No. When people reply to your email autoresponder it goes straight to your inbox. On both free and paid Mailchimp.
What happens at the end of the last email on the list?
After your autoresponder sequence then they would just get your regularly weekly or bi weekly emails you send out.
do you need a website to use MailChimp?
Hi, there! I am using mailchimp on my blog.
What 8f we dont have a website yet
You technically don't need a website to get started - but you should be making and posting regular content somewhere.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Excelent video! This July I just started a blog www.pilarnavarrete.com, to share free printables base on my watercolor artwork. Do I need to create a new campaign for each free printable?

you are all over the place. you know a lot but you are difficult to follow
do you realize you say "THANK you" in a weird way?
Graham says, "cha-ching!"
