Hi. I'm Gary from organicweb.com.au and I'm a Mailchimp partner and that's exactly what
I'm talking about today Mailchimp partners. So this video will be particularly of interest to
virtual assistants freelancers agencies
anyone else that helps other clients with their marketing or with their software
Mailchimp last week introduced something called Mailchimp and co so let's go and look at that
Mailchimp and code there we go what this is is this is a partners program in Mailchimp it's much
more than just a partnership program yes there are financial incentives the different levels of
partners that you can be now just to let you know that I'm not paid by Mailchimp for this video I'm
just doing this on my own behalf because I have personally gained so much from being a partner
with Mailchimp more than just the financial rewards of course is the kind of partnerships
and that's why I'm, I'm promoting this video and putting it on youtube in the hope that more and
more agencies virtual assistants etc. join up because particularly in the Slack channel
there's a Slack channel that all partners are a part of the amount of knowledge that's shared
where you can hear how others work with their clients for example the kinds of solutions they've
put in whether those are Custome Journeys big clients small clients and so on it's just been so
valuable for me it has been incredible but here we go so I'm viewing um Mailchimp.com
backslash andco and you can also reach that by going to resources for freelancers and agencies
and then Mailchimp and co just to let you know that even if you're a one-man band which I am
you can also join up to the partnership program so whether you're a huge advertising agency
or a one-man band or somewhere in between join up so going to enco will describe what
benefits there are and a little bit more about the program but I'll give you a quick peek at what
the dashboard looks like so when you do become a a partner depending on what level you're on
as you can see at the top member partner, pro partner depending on what you know
what what I guess plan you're on or how big you are how many clients you have I guess
depends on the level you're on what you'll see what you'll get and so on I'm showing my, my
my dashboard that I see when I go into my um my partner's login I guess
as you can see I can see my various clients I can add clients and all I need to do in that case
is I click add a client put the email address of the client and put a short message when
that client approves that you will then be able to see people from your login so you log into
Mailchimp with your normal login and you'll be able to manage your clients from there
this is hugely advantageous because you don't need to have a login for each client and because some
plans are limited to the number of users a person can have on their plan by using by adding a
client through your partner platform like this it doesn't count towards the client's number of users
so you can just go directly to a client and then view them here and this is just a demo obviously
I'll just scroll down the page very quickly you can do certifications there's a great educational
program where you get certified in Mailchimp various things whether that's the fundamentals
email marketing Custome Journeys etc. etc. you can look at the rewards there are financial
incentives certain financial incentives and so on you get a badge that you can use and
and there lots of other things such as directory listing and I'll just go across to mine so this
is my directory listing I can amend this and so on and Mailchimp promote the directory listings
to their customers saying look why don't you hire what used to be called an expert or why don't
you hire a partner and get some help so you'll get leads or you may well get leads from this
people can customers of Mailchimp can fill in a form if they're interested in engaging
you are brief which you will then receive and and you will get back to the the client
um so just going back into Mailchimp um yeah lots of things depending on what account you're on
as well you might get premium supports for yourself so that you can then help clients
should you have an issue if you need to contact Mailchimp premium support which is actually
very very good and as you can see down the side I can view the dashboard which we've just seen
I can go and view all my clients however many you have whether you have one client or 20,000
clients however many you can click clients you can see what rewards there are and incentives
Mailchimp academy again is that educational program various partner resources articles etc.
etc. and you can amend your editor but again I'm going to go back to probably for me the biggest
thing has been the Slack channel um where I belong to a Slack channel and the hundreds of other
Mailchimp partners on there both individuals that work by themselves and very large corporates and
we discuss things we, we we talk about things there are features by Mailchimp such as we get
to chat to some uh people at Mailchimp and hear what's happening in the future and so on and and
and where it's all going look that's a very quick overview
of the uh Mailchimp and code or the partner platform from my perspective and I've used it
for a while I absolutely love it and if you are a small agency or a very large one honestly just
go to Mailchimp and sign up for the partner the partner program you've got nothing to lose and
you will gain a heck of a lot but thanks for joining me I'm Gary from organicweb.com.au.
