Do not Participate in this Task, if:

You want to send emails based on user behavior like time spent on the website. Behavior targeting is not possible on MailChimp, you should think of using some other tool like customer.io, etc.
You want to capture the users’ events on your product or website like users logging in, accessing particular page. Event targeting is not possible through MailChimp.
You want to send emails to purchased email IDs (or the users who is not your opt-in list). You will soon be blocked from MailChimp servers.
You are looking to send emails to large email database (for eg. 50,000+) at low cost. The better option for that will be to set your own email list management tool like Octeth. These tools can be purchased at fixed price. You do not have to pay based on the number of subscribers.
