Step 2: Access the report section
Once you have opened the campaign overview, you will find a list of various options on the left side. Click on "Reports" here. This will take you to an overview of your campaign reports.
Step 3: Select the desired report
In the Reports section, you can select the reports for individual campaigns or surveys. You will be able to choose specific emails or surveys whose performance you want to analyze. Simply click on the respective campaign to see more details.

Step 4: Compare campaign and survey
Mailchimp also allows you to compare different campaigns. This is especially helpful if you have conducted an A/B test. Click on the "Comparison" feature to evaluate the metrics of the campaigns against each other.
Step 5: Analyze key metrics
When you open a report, you will see key metrics such as open rate, click-through rate (CTR), as well as information about unsubscribes and bounces. Note how many people have opened your email or clicked on a link in the email.
