Notis

Welcome every new Mailchimp subscriber from Gmail

Turn a new signup into a warm first touch without adding another follow-up to your list.

Trigger

Subscribe Trigger

Triggered when a subscriber subscribes to Mailchimp

Action

Send Email

Sends an email via gmail api using the authenticated user's google profile display name, requiring `is html=true` if the body contains html and valid `s3key`, `mimetype`, `name` for any attachment.

Why this helps

New subscribers can wait too long for a personal welcome while you are focused elsewhere.

  • Acknowledge signups promptly.
  • Keep the welcome message in your Gmail sent mail.
  • Reduce manual follow-up after subscriber growth.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Mailchimp and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to send a concise welcome email in Gmail to each new subscriber, using only the available subscriber details.
  • 4Pick the Mailchimp Subscribe trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real subscriber example.

Questions about this workflow

Does this send an email for each new subscriber?

Yes. The Mailchimp Subscribe event starts the automation, which asks Gmail to send the welcome message.

Can the email be personalized?

Ask Notis to use subscriber details available in the event. Provide any extra welcome copy or facts in your instruction.
