Adding a Mailchimp Sign up form to your Facebook page is fairly straight forward.
All you need to do is sign in to your Facebook Account and your Mailchimp Account.
I’m presuming you’ve already created a list and a form in your Mailchimp account. If not, you’ll need to do that first.
You can watch the videos here if you need to do that.

Once you have your list and your form set up, watch the following mailchimp video, which explains exactly what to do.
If you have any problems, (like I did) you’ll need to remove the app and start again. Follow the instructions in this mailchimp article.
Please don’t get too frustrated.
Remove the app as suggested and logout of your Mailchimp account and your Facebook account.
Clear your cookies and cache. The article also explains how to do this if you’re not sure.
Log back in to both accounts and go through everything once again. Hopefully you should now have your form set up in your Facebook page!
It was only after I cleared my cookies and cache that it finally worked! Oh, the trauma.

The integration between Facebook & Mailchimp has matured very quickly thanks to both their API’s. I’m in the process of developing a lead generation script that allows you to place a FB button on your website to gain user info, and pass it onto your Mailchimp lists!
Excellent concept! I’ll check it out, thanks.
