Connect Mailchimp to CoSchedule

1. Open Settings
2. From the main Settings tab, click Integrations
3. Locate and click Mailchimp, then click Enable
4. Follow the prompted steps to connect Mailchimp to CoSchedule. Once connected, click Sync and CoSchedule will sync all email campaigns in your Mailchimp account to your calendar.

Add Mailchimp Projects to Your Calendar

As soon as you connect your Mailchimp account to CoSchedule, scheduled email campaigns will be added to your calendar.

1. To create a new Mailchimp email campaign, click the + icon on the date you would like the campaign to start and select the Mailchimp project type.
2. Enter a title and click Create
3. Choose Regular Email or Plain Text Email

Your Mailchimp project will sync with your Mailchimp account and a new draft email campaign will be created in Mailchimp. Certain functions will now directly sync between the project in your calendar and the email campaign in Mailchimp:

• Project Title Title of the email campaign in Mailchimp.
• Scheduled Date Scheduled time for the email campaign in Mailchimp.
• Subject Line Subject inside of the email campaign in Mailchimp.
• Delete When you delete an email campaign in your calendar the campaigns will be deleted inside of Mailchimp and vice versa.

The Email Campaign will need to be officially scheduled first inside Mailchimp before you can change the schedule status inside of CoSchedule. Click Edit in Mailchimp to schedule in Mailchimp.  

Working With Draft Mailchimp Emails

Your calendar will sync all of the Mailchimp email campaigns in draft state. If they are scheduled, they will be located in the calendar view. If they're unscheduled drafts, they will be located in the Unscheduled bin. To access all of your unscheduled email campaigns, click on Unscheduled in the upper right corner of your calendar. If you do not see an email campaign at first, use the search option to search for the email campaign title.
