📧 If you're managing email marketing campaigns with Mailchimp, you've probably wondered: "What if I could control everything through natural language conversations with an AI assistant?" That's exactly what Mailchimp MCP makes possible.

Understanding Mailchimp MCP

Mailchimp MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an innovative integration that connects your Mailchimp account directly to Claude Desktop, allowing you to manage your entire email marketing strategy through AI-powered conversations.

Instead of clicking through multiple screens in Mailchimp's interface, you can simply ask Claude:

• "Show me my top performing campaigns this month"
• "Create a new campaign for my product launch"
• "How many subscribers did I gain last week?"
• "Add these email addresses to my main audience"

How Mailchimp MCP Works

The integration uses Model Context Protocol (MCP), a standardized way for AI assistants to interact with external services. Here's the flow:

1. Installation: Install the Mailchimp MCP server package on your computer
2. Configuration: Connect your Mailchimp API key to the MCP server
3. Integration: Claude Desktop automatically detects and connects to the MCP server
4. Usage: Start chatting with Claude about your Mailchimp account
