How to Add an Attachment to a Mailchimp Email
Welcome to Ben’s Experience! In today’s post, we’ll walk you through the process of adding an attachment to a Mailchimp email. If you’ve ever wondered how to include a file, such as a PDF, in your Mailchimp campaigns, you’re in the right place.
Step 1: Log in to Mailchimp
First, visit the Mailchimp website and log in to your account. Once you’re in, navigate to the email creation section. We’ll start by creating a new regular email to demonstrate the attachment process.
Step 2: Create a New Email
Click on the option to design a new email. You’ll be taken to the email builder where you can start customizing your email.
Step 3: Add a Text Block
In the email builder, scroll down to the section where you want to add your attachment. Insert a text block or a section where you would like your attachment link to appear. For example, you might write something like “Download the attached PDF.”
Step 4: Insert the Attachment
Highlight the text where you want the link to appear, then click on the link icon in the editor tools. Select the option to link to a file. Click the upload button to upload your file from your computer. Choose your PDF or other file, and start the upload process.
Step 5: Save and Close
Once the file is uploaded, click the insert button. Your text will now be linked to the file. Don’t forget to click “Save and Close” to ensure your changes are applied.
Step 6: Notify Your Audience
It’s a good practice to mention in your email text that there is an attachment available for download. This helps ensure your audience knows to look for the attachment and download it if they’re interested.
And that’s it! You’ve successfully added an attachment to your Mailchimp email. For a more comprehensive guide and additional Mailchimp tips, check out my Mailchimp online course, available for free. You can access the course here.
