    Gary, this has been a pertinent topic with I work with. I believe this clarifies some of the questions my co-worker had, because she was fearful of having people unsubscribe from a campaign email but then possibly be unsubscribe from ALL organization emails.
    CHEERS!

    Thank you for this!
    How do contacts get in or become non-subscribed? Where there just isn't anything in that column?

    Thank you for your clear explanation. I'll now ask you another question (although I'll search for it in case you have explained before). What does one star mean? Does it mean a subscriber open just one email or...?

    • @GaryEckstein
      @GaryEckstein  2 года назад

      Mailchimp's definition of a one star contact rating is "This recipient has either unsubscribed and resubscribed, or soft bounced in the past" - see mailchimp.com/help/about-contact-ratings/ for more

    Hi Gary,
    Is it possible to distinguish the sending of newsletters and onboarding emails for one and the same audience list and to make sure that if the user unsubscribes from one, he is not unsubscribed from the other?
    The disadvantage of duplicating the audience would obviously be the cost of Mailchimp.
    I tried the groups but I have the impression that it still unsubscribes the user from all the groups in the list.
    Thanks for your help Gary!

      Hi Louis, when a person unsubscribes, they are unsubscribing at the Audience level. As such, no emails may be sent to that email address from that Audience.

    It sounds like if I have one subscriber in 2 audiences, that unsubscribes from one audience I can still legally send them an email from the other audience. At the end of the video what you said wasn't very clear and seemed to negate what you stated in the video. Can you clarify? Thank you!

    • @GaryEckstein
      @GaryEckstein  2 года назад

      With most privacy and spam laws, if a contact unsubscribes from one audience you must not send from another audience.

    Thanks Gary. As I set up my first newsletter the unsubscribe options, when clicked, appears with the box for email and underneath "Sorry, there was a problem with the email you entered." I do not know how to correct this. Can you help

    • @GaryEckstein

      Hi Clare, when you mention 'unsubscribe options' are you referring to the unsubscribe link in the footer of the email campaign?

      Yes Clare. The test email unsubscribe won't work but the unsubscribe will work on a 'proper' email campaign.

      According to Mailchimp terms and functionality it isn't possible to email unsubscribed contacts to get their permission to send them emails. You could advertise on e.g. Facebook to get people to subscribe.

    I run a small charity. I thought I was offering an opportunity to unsubscribe from a "Group mailed campaign". I have learned the hard way that they are now unsubscribed from my entire audience. I will try to get them to re-subscribe using an imbedded form on my website and hope this solves the problem. Is this the only way. Obviously I can capture the email addresses and also mail them outside Mailchimp to ask them to re-subscribe.

      A means of resubscribing is described here: organicweb.com.au/marketing/mailchimp-cleaned-resubscribe/ (the article is a bit old but should still work).
