First, make a copy of your Google Calendar events listing. Next, open up the Mailchimp emailCampaign rule editor and paste in the event’s full details. Make sure to include the event name, date, time, and any relevant notes. (If you’re using an automatically generated campaign sign-up form, for example, include the user’s name and email address.) Now hit “Create Campaign Rule.” You’ll be prompted to select which of your Mailchimp lists will contain this event’s contacts. If you want all of your event attendees’ contact information added to your Mailchimp list, select “All Contacts.” If only some of your contacts are included (for example, if you’re using a custom list created specifically for this campaign), select “Contacts From This Event.” Finally hit “Create Campaign Rule.”\n

Google Calendar Events are automatically synchronized with your Mailchimp Email Campaign Rules, so there’s no need to manually keep track of which events are scheduled when. However, you may want to refine your event schedules based on certain criteria, such asdemographics or location.
If you’re looking for a way to optimize your event schedules for better engagement and conversions, look no further than Mailchimp’s powerful Email Campaign Rules.
