Hi,

This question is kind of pointed at #TonyWarwick because of this conversation we had … https://eventespresso.com/topic/email-notifiers/

I think I created an API Key with Mandrill after I signed up like you had suggested, which also completely worked by the way, so thank you again.

I’m just struggling with the idea of whether I can even access or use the “MailChimp Integration” add-on now.

To be very direct, I’m trying to setup a “hidden” Landing Page on my web site to grow my leads to generate more clients and business for myself.

I’ve been speaking to different people about it, and one mentioned that I should go through MailChimp and ask them how I should go about A) creating my landing page B) configuring a Confirmation Page and C) connecting a “free” Top Ten List” file download once I capture my leads by having them enter their Names and Email Addresses.

I’m guessing this is obviously beyond the scope of the “Mailchimp Integration” Add-on from EE, but I guess my first question is can I even use an API Key from MailChimp if I’ve already registered one with Mandrill (which by the way works perfectly ie when a new student or parent signs up for my course, the automatic email response from EE does not go to a spam folder but to an actual inbox, so the auto response email is not lost.)

I think I understand correctly that the job of the MailChimp Integration add-on is to capture emails from students and parents who sign up for my course and store them in a nice repository. Can I still access this with a MailChimp API Key? And should I simply go ahead and enter that API Key? I ask because I’m afraid it might interfere with the Mandrill API Key. Does that make sense?

I know my thoughts are a little scattered, but could someone please provide a few answers for me to clear up the fog. I’d really appreciate it, thanks!

Pete
