You can test subject lines, content, from names, and send times, as well as how many people will receive your test emails.
A/B and Multivariate Testing for Emails
See what works best
Mailchimp takes the guesswork out of creating campaigns people click on. A/B and multivariate testing let you try things out and pick a winner.
We make it easy to learn and improve from one campaign to the next.
Get to know your fans
Learn more about your people by sending tests to certain audience segments. Try out different subject lines, images, layouts, and send times to see what’s working best.
Get smarter with your marketing
As you learn more, you can adjust your campaigns to reach your goals faster. Our research shows that e-commerce businesses who use revenue as their test metric typically earn 20% more from their emails.
You decide the finish line
Pick what determines success for your campaign—whether it’s clicks, opens, or revenue—and we’ll help you see which email is the clear winner.
“It’s not always obvious what’s going to resonate best with our customers, but with Mailchimp, we’ve been able to identify a strategy that doubled our engagement and revenue.”
