Riddle and MailChimp - a winning combination
Why do Riddle quizzes work so well for lead generation with MailChimp?
It's all about human psychology.
- Quizzes are some of the most engaging, most shared content around.
- When you create a quiz, each user will spend up to five minutes answering 8-10 questions.
- Your users are now psychologically in 'yes' mode - primed to respond.
- Showing your lead generation form before they see their results rocks.
- You will see up to 45% opt-in rates (compared to about 2% for standard lead generation options).
Auto-sync quiz leads and data with MailChimp
Riddle lets you send easily all this quiz data to MailChimp, which you can use to:
- Add leads to different lists - based on their responses.
- Send personalized follow ups - for better conversions.
For example, imagine you're running a travel site - and create a quiz called 'What's your dream holiday?':
- Quiz takers who got 'You're a good city break!' could get a special 'Save $75 on our Paris holidays' offer.
- Sun lovers that scored 'You're escaping to the beach!' would receive 'Save $100 on our Mexico getaways'.

Why quizzes rock for lead generation with MailChimp
Most folks get sign ups by showing all of their visitors a (rather annoying) pop-up asking them to sign up for their newsletter.
We're not big fans of this approach.
It's like rocking up to a party then asking the first person you meet out on a private date.
Unless you're George Clooney or Shakira - this probably won't work for you.
A slightly better approach is to offer something for signing up - like a free e-book or white paper.
That's still not ideal.
Sticking with our party analogy, that's akin to asking out that first person you met for a date - but at least offering to pay for dinner.
Why pop ups don't work for MailChimp lead generation
If you're like most of us, those approaches are irritating.
Enter quizzes, personality tests, and our 12 other interactive formats.
They work so well (up to 40% of quiz takers will fill in your form) - because they get the reader learning more about their most interesting topic: themselves.
Instead of a pop up, imagine you tried this:
- You make an online quiz or personality test - based on each user discovering something about themselves.
- You have 100% of their attention over the course of 8-12 questions over 3-5 minutes.
- Then you show your lead generation form right before their results - asking for their name and email.
That's a much more natural process.
Wrapping up our party analogy - showing your lead form at the end of a quiz is like asking someone out only after having a deep, meaningful conversation.
Simple? Sure. But, hey, it works.
Yes, you can collect name, email, and quiz responses from each quiz taker, then automatically send your quiz leads to your MailChimp account.
Simply create a ‘collect emails’ quiz lead generation form with Riddle - and choose from 16 different types of fields.
Save all of this information with each lead in your Mailchimp account, then send personalized email drip campaigns based on each lead’s quiz responses. Send targeted offers or messages, using the deep insights you have from each quiz taker.
For example, suppose you created a ‘What’s your investment personality?’ as a lead magnet for your financial advisor business. You could send coupons for 25% off your ‘Intro to investing’ webinars for people who got ‘You’re scared of the stock market’, or $50 off your ‘Advanced investment strategies’ course for the quiz takers who scored ‘You’re super stock-savvy!’.
Riddle has a native integration with Mailchimp - you can easily link your Mailchimp account to your quiz, survey, personality test, or other formats.
Once connected, you can create a lead form in your quiz, so you can collect the name, email, and quiz results from any interested quiz takers.
All that data can then be sent to Mailchimp, so you can tag users, add them to lists, and send personalized email messages.
For example, suppose you are a career coach - sending visitors to your ‘Are you ready for your dream job?’ quiz lead magnet. You could send personal invitations to an upcoming webinar only to qualified leads - such as people who got ‘I’m ready for a change!’ as their quiz results AND answered ‘Very ready’ to your question ‘How much do you want to quit your job?’.
Yes, you can automatically put each quiz lead into different lists in your Mailchimp account. Boost conversions by sending the right message, to the right group of leads - each personalized with their name and quiz results.
Definitely. You can require each lead to click on an emailed confirmation link before they are added to your Mailchimp account.
This is a useful feature in terms of global privacy regulations like the EU’s GDPR - which require users opt-in twice before you can email them marketing messages.
