Connecting Cursive to Mailchimp lets you turn anonymous website visitors into addressable email subscribers. Instead of relying solely on opt-in forms, you can build targeted audiences from visitors who have shown real interest in your product.
When Cursive identifies a visitor, here is exactly how that data maps into Mailchimp. No manual entry, just clean, structured records.
| Cursive Field | Mailchimp Field | What Happens |
|---|---|---|
| Member.email_address | Adds the identified visitor as a subscriber to your Mailchimp audience | |
| company_name | Member.merge_fields.COMPANY | Populates the company merge field for personalization in email campaigns |
| pages_viewed | Member.tags | Applies tags based on pages viewed (e.g., "visited-pricing", "viewed-case-study") |
| intent_score | Member.merge_fields.INTENT | Stores intent score as a merge field for segmentation and conditional content |
| industry | Member.merge_fields.INDUSTRY | Sets the industry for segment-based targeting in campaigns |
