3 Steps To Be Ready Fast for Email Marketing Venture By Using MailChimp

In the previous blog post, I wrote that this Blogging Tips Blog had the NewsLetter/Mailing List which provided by MailChimp, The Email Auto-Responder service. As I said before, one of the NewsLetter/Mailing List functions is as Email Marketing tool – as tool for Email Marketing venture. From the NewsLetter/ Mailing List creation by using MailChimp, I found that MailChimp is surely a great tool to start Email Marketing venture.

It is because MailChimp offers the professional Newsletter/Mailing List for free (up to 500 subscribers and 3000 Email sending per month) with so many useful features such as customizable linked or embed OPT-IN form, customizable Email Marketing process, or customizable Email Campaign form.

The Fastest Way To Be Ready For Email Marketing Venture

Of course, it is needed times to customize the entire MailChimp Email Marketing process which means that it is not fast at all. Fortunately, there is a choice to use the default MailChimp Email Marketing process for almost of all required steps. Indeed, we can use the default MailChimp process for the entire Email Marketing steps but I do not suggest it. We should still customize the OPT-IN form so can blend well in our blog layout.

Here, three steps the fastest way to be ready for Email Marketing Venture:

Step #1. Register for Free Account

• Go to mailchimp.com , click “SIGN UP FREE” button and follow the registration process until finish.

Step #2. Create A List

• Login to MailChimp by using the created account

• Click the “Start” button

• Fill all the required information

• Click the “Save” button

• A list had been created and ready to opt the subscribers

Step #3. Create and Integrate Opt-In Form

• The previous step brings us to the List page

• Click “forms” at the List page

• Now, we in form creation page

• Choose the submission type and click it

• As example, choose the embed code

• Click “create embed for small form”

• We can design the Opt-Form base on our needs freely

• Use “build it” area to remove or added OPT-IN Form such as text forms or check box

• Use “design it” area to customize the OPT-IN Looks such as color or fonts style

• After “build it” and “design it” tasks is finish, click “create embed code for small form”

• Check the needed options only

• As example, To use the defined design before, check the “use colors I defined in form designer” option

• Click “create embed code” button after options choosing is finish

• Copy the code and paste it into our blog

Please note that the entire Email Marketing process still use the MailChimp default process such as for thank you page, conformation email, or welcoming message. If want to add our personal touch in the entire Email process, it is surely needed more than these three steps that I had written in this blog post.
