How to send a MailChimp campaign to one person?

Introduction

A campaign is a marketing message that you propagate with ads, email, or some other medium. If you own a store online, you might be willing to send transactional emails to your clients concerning information about their account activity and purchases. Transactional emails are the ones that are sent to a single person at a time and can carry a limited type of content. You can send transactional emails to subscribers with the help of a few different means offered by MailChimp.

Email sent by a single sender to a single recipient, usually associated with commercial transactions or account activity. Examples encompass purchase confirmations, personalized notifications of products, and password reminder emails.

Transactional emails permit you to convey information that is uniquely associated with the recipient. These emails share requested information or remind a person of requisite activity; for instance, they put products in their shopping cart but later did not complete the process of purchasing.

Transactional and Bulk Emails

The transactional email typically uses SMTP or API integration to send emails. This process mostly requires a professional developer to set up a system to send coded template messages to specified recipients based on a particular action. You can convey these emails to various ‘Types of contacts’ in the list of your audience. For different organizations and companies, it is a requirement to use both transactional and bulk emails.

Things to Remember

Ensure the presence of the recipient in your subscriber audience by sending an email. If you do not have a targeted audience on your list, you can import the audience to your MailChimp account or invite people for the subscription via a signup form. It would be best if you were sure to verify the domain of your email before sending your first email.
