Here’s a riddle for you: What’s (often) the cheapest form of marketing, yet the one that most businesses don’t take advantage of? (Automation Tip Tuesday 👇) If you guessed customer retention, you’re right. Take Promoessence’s story. They’re the guys you call when you need branded merch and promo items done right. With their large network of leads and an endless cycle of trade shows and events, customer retention is the cheapest form of marketing they can utilize. They reached out to us, wondering if they could integrate their Pipedrive lead database with their new Intuit Mailchimp email nurture campaign. We set them up with a seamless Zapier integration. Zapier sends their leads from Pipedrive to MailChimp. (This can be triggered as new leads are added to Pipedrive, as deals change, or as leads match a filter in Pipedrive.) We walked them through various Pipedrive-MailChimp integration options, from simple ones that segment and tag Pipedrive leads to complex versions that match different subscribers with different campaigns. Their leads are automatically subscribed and unsubscribed in Mailchimp based on changes in Pipedrive. And vice versa — information in Pipedrive is updated based on subscriber activity in MailChimp. They can now hyper-target their email campaigns to perfectly suit the subscriber — with zero extra manual effort. ➡️ Location-based campaigns. ➡️ Deal-stage-based campaigns. ➡️ Level-of-warmth-based campaigns.

Explore top LinkedIn content from expert professionals.
Summary
Connecting form data to email campaigns means automatically transferring information collected from online forms—like contact details or preferences—into email marketing tools so you can send personalized messages to your audience without manual data entry. This helps businesses reach the right people with targeted content based on the information users provide.
- Automate integration: Use native integrations or services like Zapier to link your forms with email platforms and keep your contact lists up to date automatically.
- Segment intelligently: Take advantage of form responses to group your audience and send messages that match their interests or actions for a more tailored experience.
- Explore personalization: Build workflows that use form data to craft customized email campaigns, saving time and increasing the relevance of your communication.

Highlights from the training session we held today with our partners, clients, and community of copywriters: 1. We demo'd 2 new features. 1a: We put the "wow" in Wow Tags - Nico demo'd a major upgrade for our data feature called "Wow Tags." With Wow Tags, you can transform any tokens/tags using prompts. E.g., you can clean, reformat, condense, and expand personalization tokens AT SCALE to fit smoothly and reliably into your copywriting. 1b: We demo'd Inline Segmentation - you can build audience cohorts and content in 3-5 seconds modularly while writing an email. Saves hours and hours of time and unlocks a whole new opportunity to book demos from newsletters. TECHNICAL BUT COOL: Both these tools use LLMs to create custom outputs, but the outputs are DETERMINISTIC, meaning there’s zero chance of hallucination even at ~100M emails. 2. We walked through an example of a Singulate campaign from our Conference Follow Up playbook that we used at SaaStock USA. Here's how it works: - Booth visitors fill out a HubSpot form from a QR code. - Once submitted, they receive a singulated (i.e., instantly segmented and personalized) email based on the form data and the rules defined in a Singulate Template hooked into a HubSpot workflow. After the conference, my post-event nurture comms use the form data to send highly-personalized follow ups, resulting in 37% converting into demos 3. I shared my 3 current favorite AI personalization tips (see slides below). Always a great community event - we host them every month. If you want to join the next one, ping me and I can add you to the invite (we just use Google Meet).

A story of "Don't assume you know what your users want until you get feedback" When we built Visme Forms our thought initially was to take the easier route and allow all integrations of Visme to email marketing and CRM via Zapier. The concept was that it would save us a ton of development vs. creating native integrations. But after collecting user feedback it was evident that there are two types of users: 1). Technically savvy and/or existing users of Zapier who have no issues utilizing it. 2). Those who don't want to sign up or pay for another tool to connect to their other apps. We had to make a decision. We had to find a compromise. And decided: Why not give them the best of both worlds 🌎 😊 And here's what we did: 1. Build Native integrations We took a survey of our early access users and asked what apps they would most likely send their Form data to and built seamless integrations to: Intuit Mailchimp, #googlesheets, HubSpot, ActiveCampaign, Brevo, Airtable, ConvertKit → Soon to be Kit, Klaviyo, GetResponse, AWeber and MS #excel. 2. Integrate with Zapier It's not possible to build native for all apps (there are far too many) so we also let users connect with hundreds of other platforms and tool in their marketing tech stack using zapier integration: Visme -> Zapier -> YourFavoriteApp 3. And... Webhooks We also recently added Webooks to send data to URL from third-party services for those that want to integrate with their own internal apps.
