Tracking Campaign Performance in Pipeline CRM

After you send an email campaign in Mailchimp, you’ll see a new Mailchimp section in each contact’s profile in Pipeline CRM, including:

Sent campaigns
Open and click status
Bounces

This allows you to follow up based on real engagement.

Viewing and Managing Mailchimp Lists

Go to the Mailchimp Integration > Click on "Your Mailchimp Lists".
- See all of your Mailchimp lists imported into Pipeline CRM.
- Select double opt-in/welcome email options for each list.
- If your Mailchimp list doesn’t appear in Pipeline, an Admin should click Update my lists from Mailchimp! in the integration settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does double opt-in work?
Learn more about double opt-in. Double opt-in ensures new subscribers confirm their signup before joining your Mailchimp list, improving compliance and deliverability.

Why can’t I see my list when exporting to Mailchimp?
Your lists may not be synced. An Admin should refresh lists and enable those needed.

Why did my export fail to reach Mailchimp?
Failing exports usually mean a Mailchimp-required field isn’t filled in Pipeline CRM. Remove the requirement in Mailchimp or fill in the missing data first.

How do I get help from Mailchimp?
Visit the Mailchimp Help Center for searchable guides, troubleshooting, and direct support.

Are unsubscribes in Mailchimp reflected in Pipeline CRM?
No, unsubscribes are not automatically synced. Update Pipeline CRM manually if a contact unsubscribes.

Do updates in Pipeline sync with Mailchimp?
No, the integration is one-way (Pipeline → Mailchimp). Changes made in Mailchimp won’t sync to Pipeline CRM automatically.
