Mailchimp + Pitchsite Integration

Trigger Mailchimp email campaigns from proposal events

Mailchimp is the most widely used email marketing platform for small businesses, used by agencies worldwide to run newsletters, nurture sequences, and client communications. Connecting Mailchimp to Pitchsite creates a powerful feedback loop — proposal events trigger precise Mailchimp campaigns, and Mailchimp subscribers can be converted to Pitchsite proposal recipients.

How to use Mailchimp + Pitchsite

A step-by-step look at how Mailchimp and Pitchsite work together.

1

Connect via Mailchimp API

Link your Mailchimp account to Pitchsite using your API key. Audience lists and tags sync to Pitchsite immediately.

2

Tag proposal recipients in Mailchimp

When a Pitchsite proposal is sent to a prospect, they are automatically added to your Mailchimp audience with a "Proposal Sent" tag — enabling targeted follow-up campaigns.

3

Trigger nurture sequences for unsigned proposals

Prospects who receive but don't sign within 5 days enter a Mailchimp "Proposal Follow-Up" automation — a 3-part email sequence that addresses common objections and keeps the deal warm.

4

Move signers to a client nurture list

When a proposal is accepted, the prospect moves from "Prospect" to "Client" segment in Mailchimp — triggering your onboarding welcome sequence.

5

Convert Mailchimp subscribers to proposal leads

Use Mailchimp campaign click data to identify engaged subscribers for Pitchsite proposals. If someone clicks a "Get a quote" CTA in your newsletter 3 times, they're ready for a personalised proposal.

Use cases

Real ways agencies use Mailchimp and Pitchsite together.

Nurture unsigned proposals with email

Automated Mailchimp sequences for prospects with unsigned proposals — addressing common objections, showing new social proof, adding urgency — reactivate deals that would otherwise go cold.

Post-close onboarding sequences

Signed proposals automatically add the new client to Mailchimp's onboarding sequence — welcome emails, next steps, and resources delivered on a defined schedule.

Newsletter to proposal pipeline

Convert your most engaged Mailchimp newsletter subscribers — those who read every issue, click every link — into personalised Pitchsite proposal targets. Warm outreach beats cold every time.

Seasonal re-engagement campaigns

Tag prospects who previously received but didn't sign proposals in Mailchimp. Run seasonal re-engagement campaigns ("New year, new website?") targeting this high-intent segment.

Frequently asked questions

Is consent required to add proposal recipients to Mailchimp?

Yes. GDPR and CAN-SPAM require consent for email marketing. Proposals should include a consent option or prospects should have opted in to receive marketing communications. Consult your legal counsel.

Can I trigger Mailchimp campaigns based on proposal section views?

Yes via Zapier. Pitchsite webhooks can trigger Zapier automations that apply Mailchimp tags based on specific section views — e.g., tag as "Pricing Interested" when pricing section is viewed.

How does Pitchsite identify which Mailchimp subscriber a proposal went to?

Pitchsite matches proposal recipient email addresses to Mailchimp subscriber email addresses for audience tagging and segment management.

Does this work with Mailchimp's transactional email (Mandrill)?

The Pitchsite integration is with Mailchimp marketing automation. For transactional email, Pitchsite uses its own email delivery infrastructure. Mandrill integration is not currently native.
