Use Pre-Built Journey Maps
Mailchimp’s Customer Journey feature is a powerful tool that helps you connect with and organize your contacts with marketing journeys. We offer a number of pre-built journey maps that have starting points, branches, emails and more to help you get started quickly.
In this article, you'll learn how to use pre-built maps.
