Understanding Mailchimp Campaign Resending

By delving into Mailchimp's help articles on this topic, we can gain valuable insights into when and how to resend our campaigns effectively.
One of the key factors to consider is the timing of the resend. According to Mailchimp's blog, waiting at least two days before resending a campaign can prevent an increase in unsubscribes and complaints. This insight can guide us in devising an optimal schedule for our resend strategy.
Furthermore, Mailchimp provides detailed instructions on how to resend different types of campaigns, including regular, plain-text, A/B testing, and multivariate campaigns. By familiarizing ourselves with the specific steps for each campaign type, we can ensure that our resend process is seamless and efficient.
Understanding the nuances of resending campaigns in Mailchimp empowers us to resolve issues related to unopened emails and ultimately improve open rates. It's essential to log in to Mailchimp, navigate to the campaign, select 'Replicate,' make any necessary adjustments, and then send it as a new campaign. This approach can help us achieve better engagement with our audience and maximize the impact of our email marketing efforts.
Replicating Your Email Campaign
Understanding the nuances of resending campaigns in Mailchimp has empowered us to address issues related to unopened emails and improve open rates. Now, we're going to focus on replicating your email campaign.
To resend your email campaign, you can find help articles on the Mailchimp website that provide step-by-step instructions for replicating and resending unopened regular, plain-text, A/B testing, or multivariate email campaigns. If you encounter any challenges or have specific questions, you can contact support to access email and chat assistance.
When you replicate your email campaign, ensure that you consider the timing and frequency of your resend to avoid increasing unsubscribes and complaints. It's essential to maintain a balance between reminding recipients about important content and respecting their inbox.
Moreover, if you're using the Mailchimp mobile app, you can also resend regular email campaigns to non-openers. For more details on this process, refer to the article 'Resend to Non-Openers with the Mobile App' to learn how to effectively resend your email campaign using the app.
Targeting Unresponsive Subscribers
To effectively target unresponsive subscribers, consider creating a segment using the Campaign Builder in Mailchimp. This feature allows you to resend an email campaign to contacts who didn't open the initial one. By selecting 'Email interaction' and specifying 'Did not open' in the drop-down menu, you can easily create a segment of subscribed contacts who didn't open your email. This targeted approach increases the likelihood of re-engaging with these contacts.
If you need further assistance, Mailchimp's help articles provide detailed guidance on how to resend an unopened email. Additionally, contacting Support can resolve any specific issues you encounter.
It's worth noting that when targeting unresponsive subscribers, it's essential to monitor the impact of the resent email campaign through the Reports page to evaluate its effectiveness.
For new subscribers, consider creating a specific campaign to re-engage them. For long-term inactive subscribers, a re-engagement campaign might be more appropriate.
Learning how to re-send and effectively target unresponsive subscribers will help maximize the impact of your email campaigns.
Sending or Scheduling Your Resent Campaign
When targeting unresponsive subscribers, the next step is to replicate the original email campaign through the Campaign Builder to resend it to those contacts who didn't open the initial email.
To do this, go to Campaigns, then All campaigns to access the targeted email campaign for replication. Choose the Replicate option from the drop-down menu for the selected campaign. The replicated copy will load the campaign checklist in the Campaign Builder.
In the Campaign Builder, click on Edit Recipients in the To section, select New segment from the Recipients drop-down menu, and add a filter for Email interaction to target unresponsive subscribers. After setting up the segment, you can save and send or schedule your resent email campaign to engage unopened recipients.
This process ensures that your message gets another chance to reach the intended audience. If you're on the go, you can even schedule the resent campaign using the Mailchimp mobile app.
This approach demonstrates an active effort to maximize the impact of your email campaign and connect with more people over time.
For further guidance, refer to Mailchimp's help articles on how to re-send an email campaign.
Maximizing the Impact of Email Marketing

Leveraging A/B testing can provide valuable insights into what resonates with your audience, allowing for refinement and improvement. Resending a campaign to unresponsive subscribers with slight variations and a compelling call to action can rekindle their interest.
It's important to provide valuable and important information in the email to incentivize recipients to open it the first or subsequent time. Utilizing Mailchimp's 'View Report' feature is essential for monitoring the impact of your campaign resend, allowing for informed decisions on future email marketing strategies.
Additionally, regularly updating and cleaning your recipient list through 'Edit Recipients' can ensure that your emails are reaching an engaged audience. By implementing these strategies, you can maximize the impact of your email marketing efforts and drive better results.
