I noticed that you uploaded your video today. It takes a little bit of time for YouTube to do all the processing on their end, so we likely just aren’t able to pull in the thumbnail shot from them yet. Within a few hours of the upload, you should be good to go.

Matt – Looks like you found the twitter answer, and yes – something FB-related is on the way.

Trying to get Youtube Merge tag to work and essentially copied and pasted the merge tage from this and it did not work.

The Twitter Template is there – take a look under the click “change template” “Gallery” tab when you are in the Campaign Builder. That tab may have been added after she took this screen shot showing the “new email” tab.

I’ve tried using the “Twitter Template” through the Campaign builder, but the feature is not accessible for me. Has this been added yet or is it still coming?

Thanks.

I agree. We’ve seen some additional traffic and views of our campaigns by using the Social Media links on our emails and also pushing out via Twitter and Facebook.

MailChimp KNOWS how to help companies get their message out to people…this is seen by you guys always coming up with NEW add-ons, merge tags, social links, etc to help us with our marketing, etc. Much appreciated.

I’d like to see social links to LinkedIn and Mixx (if possible). LinkedIn has significant value to my company’s email campaigns.

BTW…how do you like your bananas? Just past the green point, or really ripe??
