Many sites run FluentCRM inside WordPress and still keep a Mailchimp audience for newsletters. FlowMattic passes subscribers, opt-outs, tags and cleaned addresses between the two, so a person has the same status in both places. It suits stores and publishers moving from one tool to the other, or using both on purpose.

1. TriggerNew Subscriber2. ActionCreate or Update ContactWhen Mailchimp fires New Subscriber, FlowMattic runs Create or Update Contact in FluentCRM with the data from that event.
You build this in the FlowMattic workflow builder on your own site. See the setup steps
Each one uses only triggers and actions the two integrations ship today, plus FlowMattic's own tools. Where the library has a ready-made template, import it instead of building from scratch.
Ready-made templatePeople who join through a Mailchimp signup form also become FluentCRM contacts, and Send Email to Contact gives them a welcome from your own site.
New SubscriberCreate or Update ContactSend Email to Contact
View the template When someone opts out of the Mailchimp audience, Update Contact Status marks the same email as unsubscribed in FluentCRM, so your WordPress campaigns stop reaching them as well.
New UnsubscriberUpdate Contact Status
Contacts who confirm in FluentCRM, from a WordPress form or checkout, join the Mailchimp audience used for the newsletter without a CSV export.
Contact Status Change to SubscribedAdd New Member
A tag set by a FluentCRM automation, such as purchased or webinar attendee, is added to the Mailchimp member, so Mailchimp segments built on tags stay accurate.
Contact Added to TagsAdd Member Tag
Mailchimp cleans addresses that keep bouncing. Passing that on sets the FluentCRM contact to bounced and leaves a note with the reason, so you stop paying the bounce cost twice.
Cleaned EmailsUpdate Contact StatusAdd Note to Contact
When you delete a contact on request, Delete List Member takes them out of the Mailchimp audience in the same run, so an erasure request is handled in both tools.

Pull every contact in a segment, loop over them with Iterator and add each as a Mailchimp member. Run it once for a migration or on a Schedule to keep a list topped up.

By the end, every new subscriber to your Mailchimp audience is a FluentCRM contact who has received your welcome email.
In FlowMattic, open Connects and add a Mailchimp connection for the account that owns the audience.
Create a workflow, choose Mailchimp and New Subscriber, select the audience, then add a test subscriber so FlowMattic captures the data.
Add a FluentCRM step with Create or Update Contact. Map the email and name fields and choose the list and tags the contact should get.
Add Send Email to Contact, write or pick the email, test both steps with the captured subscriber and switch the workflow on.

A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.
Mailchimp and FluentCRM connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.
FluentCRM keeps contacts in your WordPress database, and FlowMattic runs there too, so the sync passes through your own site rather than a third service.
Runs are unlimited, so copying a segment of thousands of contacts or syncing every tag change needs no bigger plan.
If you are moving your list from Mailchimp to FluentCRM, or the other way, these workflows keep both current until the day you switch one off.
New subscribers are copied as they join. For the people already in your audience, the usual route is FluentCRM's own import from a Mailchimp export, then this workflow keeps the two in step from that day on.
FluentCRM tags can be copied to Mailchimp with Add Member Tag and removed with Remove Member Tag. Mailchimp has no tag trigger in this list, so tags added inside Mailchimp do not flow back.
Use Contact Status Change to Unsubscribed as the trigger. Because Mailchimp has no status action here, follow it with Delete List Member, or add a tag such as unsubscribed-wp that your Mailchimp campaigns exclude.
Yes. The New Campaign trigger fires when a campaign is created or sent. You could log it on contacts with Add Event to Contact, or simply post it to your team.
Yes. Start a workflow from Profile Updates and run Create or Update Contact with the new fields. It matches the contact by email address.
