In this step-by-step tutorial, you will build an AI-powered newsletter bot that automatically curates content, writes the summary and schedules the email in Mailchimp — all without writing a single line of code. The workflow runs weekly, saves you 4+ hours and keeps your subscribers engaged with fresh, relevant content.
No coding is required. The tutorial uses Zapier/Make to connect ChatGPT with Mailchimp and an RSS feed. You will just drag, drop and authenticate the apps. The total setup time is about 25–30 minutes.
Absolutely. In the prompt step, you specify the brand voice (e.g. "friendly, expert, no jargon"), the length, the CTA style and the structure. You can also review and edit each draft before it is sent — or send the draft to yourself for approval first.
For a weekly newsletter with ~500 subscribers: Zapier/Make (~$10), Mailchimp free–$13, OpenAI API usage (~$1–$3). Total under $25/month. Free tiers may cover very small lists at $0.
