Mailchimp, a favored email marketing platform among our clientele, becomes even more powerful when integrated with dynamic countdown timers.
Including these in your MailChimp templates will significantly enrich the content of your email marketing campaigns.
Sendtric allows for the effortless creation of HTML countdown timers that can be embedded in your Mailchimp email endeavors. This article explains how easy it is to add an email countdown timer to a campaign that you are running in MailChimp by using Sendtric.
Reasons to Incorporate Countdown Timers in Mailchimp
Your MailChimp campaigns can generate a sense of urgency by including countdown timers, which may increase the number of conversions they produce.
The use of countdown timers should be considered for a variety of reasons, including the following:
1. Elevate Urgency: Countdown timers instill urgency, encouraging subscribers to act before time expires. This could result in an increase in conversions and revenue.
2. Boost Engagement: The visual appeal and engaging nature of countdown timers can sustain subscriber engagement with your email campaign.
3. Promote Exclusivity: Countdown timers can foster a sense of exclusivity, making subscribers feel as if they are privy to exclusive, time-bound deals or promotions.
Here are the step-by-step instructions to create countdown timers in Mailchimp using Sendtric:
Step 1: Register for a Sendtric Account
Start by visiting the Sendtric website to register for an account. Post-registration, you will be redirected to the Sendtric dashboard, which allows you to craft and customize your countdown timer.
Step 2: Personalize Your Countdown Timer
Choose a countdown timer format that aligns with your needs and can be adapted to your brand and campaign objectives. Sendtric enables you to create countdown timers, progress bars, or even custom images.
Pro Edition users can synchronize the names of their countdown timers with their Mailchimp campaigns to save time and minimize confusion. The timer’s colors, text, and font can also be customized to match your brand.
Step 3: Procure the Embed Code
Once you have personalized your countdown timer, you can copy the embed code provided by Sendtric. This code will be embedded into your Mailchimp email campaign.
Step 4: Initiate a Mailchimp Campaign
Create a new email campaign in your Mailchimp account or modify an existing one. After finalizing the content and layout, you can integrate the Mailchimp countdown timer.
Step 5: Implement the Embed Code
Simply drag and drop a new “Code” block into the desired location in the Mailchimp editor. Copy and paste the Sendtric-provided embed code into the “Code” box.
Step 6: Preview and Dispatch
When you preview your email campaign within Mailchimp, you will have the opportunity to see the countdown timer in action. If everything appears to be in order, you may now begin sending the email to the people on your contact list.
Step 7: Evaluate the Outcome
Post-dispatch, Sendtric’s real-time analytics can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the countdown timer in your email campaign. Using this data, you will be able to evaluate the performance of the timer as well as the impact it has had on the results of your campaign.
Note that post-preview adjustments to the timer design can be made in the Pro Edition’s template after the preview has been completed. For instance, you might want to modify the color choice. The Sendtric Pro Edition Editor simplifies the process of altering any timer settings. It is not necessary to recopy the code if you are only making changes to the same timer that was already present in your template.
