They will want to look at the campaignEcommAddOrder and ecommAddOrder methods.

Two things.

I’m curious to know if there’s been any developments on the “We’re also working on some ways to allow people to dump their order history into us for use with this.”

Also, can you please point me in the direction of where I can show our software developers the your API documentation relating to this?

Thanks,

Richard

There’s a run-down at the bottom of that page for folks wanting to create their own using the API.

We’re also working on some ways to allow people to dump their order history into us for use with this.

If you don’t want to do any of that, then you’ll have to use normal segmentation using merge tags. Using that method, you’d simply update existing subscribers with a specific merge value related to the segment you’ve created externally, either using a manual upload/import or using the API.

If we performed the segmentation in our own database, is there a way of sending that segment through to Mailchimp without having to create a whole new list every time?

I am transiting from another email service to Mail Chimp for a client and have some purchase data. Is there any way to use the existing data I am going to import with the email addresses — by having custom fields or making them interest groups?

Thanks.

We are predominantly a brick-and-mortar retail business. Less than 0.5% (half of a percent) of our sales are made online. Nonetheless, email marketing is becoming a valuable means of communication to drive in-store sales. We keep detailed track of our customers’ purchases and have an extensive customer record that includes mailing addresses for customers who opt to receive notice of sales and events. Is there any way we can incorporate purchase history and geographical information into our email segmentation without importing a different list each time?

Sincerely,

AJ

For example most CB products have free reports they give away to increase their opt-in subscribers.

Those that opt-in our sent the promised report and then information about the product for sale from time to time.

It would be nice to have those who buy your CB product automatically get assigned to your list for those who bought your product and have those that are still Free Report subscribers continue to get info on the product.

Looking forward to more comments.
