Overview

This workflow hosts a short sign-up form with n8n. Each name and email is cleaned, so the email is lowercase and the first name is separated for greetings.

The person is added to your Mailchimp audience with a tag for the website. A welcome email goes out from Gmail, and the same details are logged in a Google Sheet so you have a copy outside Mailchimp.

Useful for

  • Grow a newsletter from your website without a plug-in
  • Keep every sign-up tagged by where it came from
  • Have a sheet log of sign-ups as a backup

  • An n8n workflow with 5 nodes, ready to import
