2. Creating Your Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After logging into Pabbly Connect, navigate to the workflow builder, which is essential for setting up your automation. In this interface, you will define a trigger and an action. The trigger starts the workflow, while the action is the outcome.

Click on the ‘Add Trigger’ button and search for Google Ads. Select it, and for the event, choose ‘New Lead Form Entry’. After this, click on ‘Connect’. You will receive a webhook URL to connect your Google Ads account.

• Open your Google Ads campaign.
• Locate the lead form and paste the webhook URL in the lead delivery settings.
• Send test data to confirm the connection.

Once the test data is sent, return to Pabbly Connect, where you will see the captured response. This indicates that the connection between Google Ads and Pabbly Connect is successful.

3. Adding Mailchimp as the Action Step

Next, you need to add Mailchimp as the action step in your workflow. Click on ‘Add New Action Step’ and search for Mailchimp. Select it, and for the event, choose ‘Add New Member with Custom Fields’. Click ‘Connect’ to link Mailchimp with Pabbly Connect.

If you have an existing connection, select it; otherwise, create a new connection. To do this, you will need your Mailchimp API key and data center. Access your Mailchimp account, go to your profile, then Extras, and API keys to generate a new key.

• Copy the generated API key and paste it into Pabbly Connect.
• Identify and enter your data center from your Mailchimp URL.
• Click on ‘Save’ to finalize the connection.

Now your Mailchimp account is successfully connected to Pabbly Connect, allowing you to add new subscribers automatically.

4. Mapping Fields for Subscriber Details

With your Mailchimp connection established, it’s time to map the fields for the new subscriber. You will need to select your audience list and map the email address of the new lead. Instead of entering the email manually, use the mapping feature to dynamically insert the data from the previous step.

In the mapping section, you can also add additional details like first name, last name, and phone number if needed. This ensures that every new subscriber added to Mailchimp has all the relevant information.

Select the audience list from Mailchimp. Map the email address and any other required fields. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to verify the setup.

After clicking save, you should receive a confirmation that a new subscriber has been created in your Mailchimp audience, demonstrating the effectiveness of Pabbly Connect in automating your subscriber management.

5. Finalizing Your Automation Workflow

Finally, after ensuring that all fields are correctly mapped and your workflow is functioning as expected, save your workflow in Pabbly Connect. This will ensure that every time a new lead is generated through Google Ads, the information will automatically be sent to Mailchimp as a new subscriber.

Make sure to test your workflow with real data to confirm that everything operates smoothly. Once satisfied, you can rely on Pabbly Connect to handle your subscriber additions seamlessly in the future.

By following these steps, you can leverage the power of Pabbly Connect to automate your subscriber management process, saving you time and ensuring you never miss a lead.
