Import allows you to bring in new sign ups and create new constituent records, and update constituent details as they are changed in Mailchimp across your merge fields.
There are three different import options:
- Ad hoc, (one off) – manually triggered
- Realtime – Process changes and new sign-ups instantaneously and automatically into Altru or BBCRM
- Scheduled – Set up a specific day and time for updates to be added to your CRM
