With Sendtric, you can easily create HTML countdown timers that you can embed in your Mailchimp email campaigns. In this blog post, we’ll discuss how simple it is to add an email countdown timer to your Mailchimp campaign with Sendtric.
Why Use Countdown Timers in Mailchimp?
Countdown timers can add a sense of urgency to your email campaigns, which can lead to increased conversions. Here are some reasons why you should consider using countdown timers in your Mailchimp campaigns:
Increase Urgency: Countdown timers create a sense of urgency, prompting subscribers to take action before time runs out. This has the potential to boost conversions and revenue.
Encourage Engagement: Countdown timers are engaging and visually appealing, which can encourage subscribers to stay engaged with your email campaign.
Create a Sense of Exclusivity: Countdown timers can create a sense of exclusivity, making subscribers feel like they are part of a special group with access to time-limited deals or promotions.
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to create countdown timers in Mailchimp with Sendtric:
Step 1: Create a Sendtric Account
To begin, go to the Sendtric website and sign up for an account. After you sign up, you’ll be directed to the Sendtric dashboard, where you can create and customize your countdown timer.
Step 2: Customize Your Countdown Timer
The next step is to select a countdown timer format that best fits your needs and can be tailored to your brand and the objectives of your campaign. You can use Sendtric to create a countdown timer, a progress bar, or even an image of your own design.
Pro Edition users can save time and avoid confusion by giving their countdown timers the same names as their MailChimp campaigns. Additionally, you can customize the timer’s colors, text, and font to match your brand.
Step 3: Copy The Embed Code
After you’ve finished personalizing your countdown timer, you can copy the embed code that Sendtric provides. This code will embed the timer in your Mailchimp email campaign.
Step 4: Create A Mailchimp Campaign
Create a new email campaign in your MailChimp account, or make adjustments to an existing one. After you’ve finished customizing the content and layout, you can insert the Mailchimp countdown timer.
Step 5: Add The Embed Code
Simply add a new “Code” block to your email campaign by dragging and dropping it into the appropriate place in the Mailchimp editor. Simply copy and paste the embed code provided by Sendtric into the “Code” box.
Step 6: Preview And Send
Check out the countdown timer in action by previewing your email campaign in Mailchimp. If everything checks out, you can begin sending the email to your list of contacts.
Step 7: Analyze The Results
If you use a countdown timer in your email campaign, you can use Sendtric’s real-time analytics to see how effective it was after you sent it. With this information, you can evaluate the timer’s performance and its effect on your campaign’s results.
Please note: In the Pro Edition, you can make adjustments to your timer design after previewing it in the template. For example, you might not be satisfied with the color choice. The Sendtric Pro Edition Editor makes changing any of the timer’s settings simple. If you are updating the same timer that was part of your template before, there is no need to recopy the code.
