Project at a Glance:
Team:
Data Engineer
Hours Engaged:
40
Skills & Stack:
Zapier, Mailchimp, Weebly, Google App Scripts, Google Sheets
Problem
NC3 spent countless hours updating their mailing lists by manually importing and segmenting their membership data from their Weebly website into their email marketing platform, Mailchimp.
In addition to time, these email lists were difficult to keep up to date since NC3 managed this information across systems.
Solution
Prometheus paired NC3 with a data engineer who developed a Google App Script that imported the membership data into Google Sheets and transformed the data into the file format required by Mailchimp.
The engineer used Zapier to create an integration between Google Sheets and Mailchimp that keeps the email lists up to date without any manual review or intervention.
"Prometheus is providing a really amazing service. Prometheus helped us smooth out our systems, saving time and energy. They were also very conscious of setting up a system that we could maintain on our own, understanding that we don't have any programmers on staff." - Mica (Board Member, National Coalition for Community Capital)
