Duplicate existing campaigns

Duplicate existing campaigns in Mailchimp — with the four heights of help laid out: do it now, make it easier for the next person to accept, work out the right move when you are stuck, and learn the pattern so it stops coming back.

The four heights

The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

I need the May 12 promotional campaign duplicated and prepped for the June sale. Make an editable copy titled 'June Sale — Draft from May 12', update the send date to June 10, and swap the hero image to the approved June artwork file. Send the draft to Lena (campaign strategist) for a content pass, then to Amir (deliverability) to run a quick spam-check. Don’t schedule it until both approve.

Improve — make it easier to accept

Before I clone a past campaign for reuse, surface the parts that commonly need changing. Show the past campaign’s open and click rates, highlight which links were clicked most, list any dynamic merge fields it used, and mark images that exceeded recommended sizes. Flag text snippets that failed A/B tests so the strategist can decide whether to keep or rewrite them.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment

I duplicated a campaign but links look wrong

I duplicated the May 12 promo to reuse for June and noticed merge tags and tracking parameters look off in the preview. Marek (analytics) says those broken links will ruin attribution; Lena’s on a client call until Thursday. I’m worried scheduling it as-is will create bad data and angry stakeholders. What exact checks should I run now to verify links, merge tags, and tracking so I can safely proceed or pause?

We keep reusing old campaigns without fixing tracking

Each time we clone a previous campaign, we spend half a day fixing links, tracking, and outdated copy. It breaks attribution and makes reporting useless. What concrete steps and a one-person checklist can I enforce at the moment of duplication so cloned campaigns are ready to QA and schedule without rework?

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
