Integrating SumoMe with MailChimp
SumoMe has several email opt-in (subscribe form) features such as Welcome Mat, Scroll Bar and List Builder. These can all be used to obtain email addresses for an autoresponder (also known as Follow Up Email Series) or the Trigger Automation email marketing platform within MailChimp. They simply fill out your SumoMe opt-in and the information (name and email address) is passed to MailChimp.
If you have not yet installed SumoMe, Please see this to get started and then return here for the AWeber integration:
FREE Combo Sharing & Email Opt-in - SumoMe
Step 1: Login to your Website and Click the SumoMe Crown
Step 2: Login to your SumoMe account:
Step 3: Select Your Preferred App
You can integrate AWeber with the Scroll Box app, Smart Bar app, Welcome Mat app or List Builder app. For this example, I'll choose List builder as indicated below:
Step 5: From the Services screen, Click the MailChimp Option:
Step 6: Click the Connect Button:
Step 7: Login to MailChimpYou will now see a Popup that will ask you to Login to MailChimp with your MailChimp credentials. You must provide your:- Username/Email
- Password
- [SOMETIMES] Captcha Security Code
Step 8: Finishing Up
Almost Done! You will now See MailChimp connected! Now you must make sure of the following:- Select a List!! If you do not select a list your emails will NOT pass to MailChimp and be collected. If you see "-- Don't push to list --" Your emails will not pass.
- Determine if you want to use Double-Opt or not. MailChimp, by default, requires your subscribers to confirm through an automated Email before being added. This is called Double-Opt and adds a step for your user. This is the most secure method.
- Click "SAVE"! You did all that hard work! Now "SAVE" it!
YOU'RE DONE!

I recently did a blog on the top ten autoresponders and this training is great for those that don't know the workings of the system itself. Thanks for sharing it.
