Mailchimp Analysis

…for when you need to know if you’re doing it right


“Worth every Penny!“

Are you a Mailchimp Champ or Mailchimp Chump?
How can you be sure?

Ever logged into your Mailchimp account and said to yourself: “yep, this is a great set up. I’ve got it 100% locked down”?

If you’ve been using Mailchimp for a while, you’ve probably settled into a nice comfortable process… and don’t even think if there’s ways you can do things better.

Chances are, you’re suffering from a bad case of Mailchimp Myopia… a belief that your account is “all good”… without having any external evidence to support the claim.

How do you really know you’re good at Mailchimp… especially when the only account you ever look at is your own? Are you truly on top of your game… or are you blind to the shortcomings of your set up, because… well… you don’t know what you don’t know.

Chimp Answers have been reviewing Mailchimp accounts for over 12 years, and have seen the good, the bad and the truly ugly, which means that when we look at your account, we can tell exactly where you’re knocking out of the park… but also where there’s some work to be done… so you can get things working the right way.

Why Choose Chimp Answers?

Mailchimp Health Check

We carried out a full Mailchimp Health Check on John’s account and identified numerous areas where he was missing out as well as the areas that needed tidying up to ensure the account was optimised the right way

Identified the opportunities I was missing out on.

The Mailchimp Health Check really helped me get a clear understanding of where I was with Mailchimp, but more importantly, the opportunities that I was missing out and could implement.

I was extremely surprised at the huge amount of value I got out of it, considering it was free! – highly recommended.

Mailchimp Health Check

…for when you need to know how good you are at Mailchimp


How do you know what you don’t know?  Well, the fact of the matter is that you can’t. It’s not possible… and when thinking about your email marketing the same thing applies – how do you know if you’re doing email marketing on Mailchimp the right way?… when you’ve no evidence outside of your own experience.

You could be missing out on elements of Mailchimp you didn’t even know existed. You could be undermining your emails by using techniques that others stopped using years ago. You could be making life harder by not knowing any better when it comes to database management.

That’s why there’s no substitute for getting the experts in to review your performance and highlight the opportunities there are to be better… and that’s what Chimp Answers do when we carry out a Mailchimp Health Check.

They’re an insight into your account, how it’s doing and areas that you’re underperforming on (or even missing completely). You don’t know what you don’t know, but we do… and we can help you know it!

Who is this Best For?

Anyone who has a mature Mailchimp account and wants to understand the specific areas that their account is underperforming.

Mailchimp Medical

…for when you need an account audit AND training


OK, so getting a Mailchimp Health Check report is definitely the best way to understand what’s going on in your account and learn the opportunities you have for getting better.

…but for many Mailchimp users, that’s only half the story – knowing what’s wrong is one thing… solving it is a completely different thing…. and that’s where the Mailchimp Medical comes in.

Unlike the Health Check report, which just gives you the numbers, the Medical adds on time with a Mailchimp expert to review your report and develop a clear plan of how to improve things.

Booking either a 30 minute call, a 60 minute call or 2 x 45 minute calls, you can use the time to address the issues, make changes and get trained on how to improve your situation.

So you can not only work out what’s going wrong… but get focused, bespoke help on getting things right.

Who is this Best For?

The Medical is the perfect solution for someone who has a mature Mailchimp account and wants to not only understand what’s working (and not working), but also get time to solve the issues and turn the account into a well oiled machine.

How it Works

If you’re interested in a Medical, then click here and complete the form. Once confirmed, we’ll get an NDA in place (as we’ll be looking at your data) and request access to your Mailchimp account – and then we carry out the Health Check. Once complete we’ll be in touch to book your training.

Costs Involved

A Basic Medical including a 30 minute call starts at USD$127.

The Mailchimp Medical report and the 1-hour session with Chimp Answers provided the exact action steps we needed to get our account under control.

We came away with 8 specific elements that needed “fixing”, and now we feel like we have a road map for optimizing our email system.

Worth every penny!

Crossroads Community Church are a large Church based in Oregon, USA. They contacted us to help understand the issues with their account and how they could solve them.

Through the medical report and the subsequent meeting we were able to guide them on where their efforts should be focused and developed a plan they could implement themselves.
