How to get 3 months free Mailchimp

Mailchimp script logoThe Mailchimp Expert Discount Program (formerly Experts Exchange Program) has changed recently. Whereas Mailchimp customers employing a Mailchimp Expert could get a 50% discount applied to their Mailchimp subscription for six months, now Mailchimp provides three months credit (i.e. three months free subscription).

As a Mailchimp Expert, I’ve found the program to be very beneficial for my clients. Mailchimp is really good at applying the three months free to my clients accounts and do so quickly. How it works is that I provide services to my Mailchimp client and my client pays me. I then submit the invoice and confirmation of payment to Mailchimp who then apply the credit.

Please be aware that Mailchimp won’t upgrade your subscription and then apply the credit. What I mean by this is that if you use a free Mailchimp account then don’t expect Mailchimp to upgrade your account for you then apply the credit; Mailchimp will credit you at your current subscription. I’m also not sure if Mailchimp credits pay-as-you-go accounts and I assume that they’ll only apply monthly subscriptions. It’s worth reading about the Program to get a better understanding.

Here is the Program wording at time of posting:

Mailchimp’s Expert Discount Program

Looking for some one-on-one guidance as you get started? Our Expert Discount Program will connect you with a Mailchimp- approved Expert to help you with custom templates, list migration, email marketing strategy, and more. We’ll even give you 3 months of free service after starting your first project with an Expert to offset your costs.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Find an expert
    Check out our list of Mailchimp Experts at https://experts.mailchimp.com . Choose an Expert with the appropriate skill set. Email them and explain you’d like to work with them as part of our program.
  2. Agree on project scope and cost
    Determine exactly what your Expert’s going to do and how much they’ll charge.
  3. Send your paid invoice to Mailchimp
    Once your project is complete, ask your Expert to send Mailchimp a copy of your paid invoice. We’ll apply 3 free months to your Mailchimp account.

Keep in mind that you can also get a 10% discount off your Mailchimp subscription each and every month just for being security conscious.

Note: As at the end of 2017 Mailchimp no longer provides the Expert Discount Program.
