[Nielsen]

Hi

I'm looking for a good looking method to get my facebook likes to sign up for my newsletter in Shopify or Mailchimp.

Mailchimp have a form but it doesn't look to be supported on the mobile platform where most users tend to be these days.

I Will appriciate the help I can get on this topic.

Hi Nielsen, 

Lisa here from Shopify Support! 

After looking into it, I believe MailChimp does support a mobile sign up form.

Here's some information about the new and improved MailChimp forms with a mobile preview option.

You also have the option to add a MailChimp sign up form on your Facebook Page, see here how to do this.

If you did want to direct your Facebook Fans to your website to sign up, you could make a special landing page and embed a sign-up form on it. Here's how to embed a sign-up form on a landing page. 

Also, here's a neat article on building an email list, including tips on how to convert your Facebook Fans to email sign-ups.  

Hope this helps, please let me know if I misunderstood your question!

You might also want to try incentivizing your Facebook and Instagram followers to sign up for your newsletter.

For example, run a giveaway that gives them bonus entries for joining your email list. There are Shopify apps that can automate it for you, or you could just do it manually.

But with this approach, you get the double benefit of getting more email subscribers and giving your followers a fun way to engage with your brand.
