Mailchimp + Asana

What is Mailchimp?

Mailchimp is an email marketing tool that helps you with personalization, automation, and customer conversion.

Why Mailchimp + Asana?

The Mailchimp + Asana integration allows teams to track important email campaign details and reporting metrics from Mailchimp in Asana tasks.

For example, teams planning email campaigns in Asana can also add a Mailchimp email campaign widget to a tracking task to view campaign performance.

Asana Rules:

Use Asana Rules to trigger the addition of email campaign metrics as a comment on a linked task to notify task collaborators about the campaign's status.

For example, when a task in Asana moves to a certain section like “Ongoing campaigns”, a rule can be triggered to add the report of the email campaign to the task with the linked campaign as a comment.
