There’s no pending development to integrate with WordPress, It’s not something I’ve seen often requested.

To be honest, I’m not sure where/how/why it would integrate with WP

Hi, please would you be kind enough to elaborate on this post. Does KashFlow integrate with WordPress or not please? Yes it does? No it doesn’t? Development is pending.

Many thanks

John

Hi,

I am looking for some experts in Capsule – KashFlow – and integration with MailChimp to do some consultancy work for a printing company. Please drop me an email. Thanks Erik.

Great feature. The sync fails however for those clients with multiple email addresses.

This is fantastic as we have been using mailchimp for about 2 years and now can use KashFlow as a CRM.

Excellent work Duane !!

Check your Kasflow records before auto export to Mailchimp. Discovered that contacts before the change in KashFlow feature of Title, first name and last name are showing empty details in first name (or only the & when I used Mr & Mrs) which results in empty first name in Mailchimp.

Great extra feature KashFlow, thanks. Another reason to promote it to other small businesses who still not realise how important it is to regularly keep in contact with existing clients.

Great news! I use mailchimp for my newsletter system anyway and integrating with KashFlow is just perfect especially for special offers 🙂

@Mark, no – no function do that yet. We may well add it in the future, but it won’t be in the immediate future purely because it’s not commonly asked for.

Hi Rupert. No April Fool – this was published on 30th March : )

If you have less than 2,000 subscribers and are sending less then 12,000 emails per month then it sounds like you’d qualify for the free plan. Contact MailChimp support and ask them.

btw just remembered the date – this isn’t an April fool’s jape is it…?!

Have been using mailchimp since November 1997 and it is an excellent system… but if i can get it free here how do I go about transferring across to take advantage of that offer. It’s easy enough to reload the addresses, but you’d lose the subscription history which could be important if you are reported for spamming, and you’d also have to rebuild templates…

Thanks Duane,

Figured it out in the end, can see the e-mails are being sent out for opt-in requests,getting some sign ups already, brilliant stuff.

Happy to recommend it to anyone – just another great reason to choose KashFlow 🙂

By: Duane Jackson

Duane Jackson — Thu, 31 Mar 2011 21:01:34 +0000

I’m very pleased this is being so well received.

@Craig – yes, if you have tikes double optin and they aren’t already on the list then they will be asked to confirm (ie, opt in)

By: Craig Cosford

Craig Cosford — Thu, 31 Mar 2011 20:52:43 +0000

One question I forgot to mention..

When linking KashFlow and mailchimp for the first time, will it automatically go through my customers and send an opt in request? I had the double opt-in ticked.

Well done guys! I’m in process of setting this up and if it’s as good as it sounds to be this is an absolute cracking new feature.

I hadn’t used mailchimp before but after an hour of playing around I am already in the process of moving my aweber subscribers, not only that, I can cancel my aweber subscription!

Mailchimp for free? Are you kidding me? That’s FANTASTIC! I was going to signup to Mailchimp and not only have you given it to me for free, you’ve essentially turned KashFlow into a CRM database, much needed and HUGE value! I can’t wait to play around with MailChimp, and I am sure my customers are going to love the professional cool new newsletters they get from me! WELL DONE!

This looks really good, i may give it a go. However i have a question. But please bear in mind i only use KashFlow to invoice, and i’m not the most experienced user.
In KashFlow i think i only have one contact and email address per customer, eg Bob in Accounts, it might be handy if i could have two or even three per customer, especially if i am dealing with a big company. eg ., Bob/accounts, Sally/marketing and Fred/the Director.

Perhaps there is a function to add several contacts per customer, i’ve not checked.
Feeling tired today !!

Wicked Intergration, just like the paypal imports & the gavatar images for customer accounts. Next you’ll be telling me KashFlow intergrates with WordPress to take payments 🙂

Well done KashFlow. I heart your accounting software so much, out all the products, software and web tools I use to drive my online marketing consultany firm forward. I don’t think I could live without KashFlow.

MailChimp is also one of my favourite e-mail marketing platforms too! MailChimp FTW!

There is an excellent iPhone app available for Mailchimp. It’s free!!!

I was using MailChimps for quite a while for our newsletter and I use Capsule CRM as in between tool to send all contacts from KashFlow to MailChimp. Now this is great if you do not use Capsule CRM.
