ConvertKit
It is perfect for artists and content creators. It is perfect for service based providers who want to house their potential leads. Entry level entrepreneurs can also benefit. It is not an all in one type of platform, but it is useful for list building and setting up automation. If you have less than 1K subscribers, this is the route to go until you need to use automation. Then, just feel free to upgrade.

HighLevel
For a small business, HighLevel is definitely the tool of choice. Small businesses usually wouldn't require most of the functionalities of specialized tools anyway, and the features that HighLevel currently has will suffice in most cases. Software from bigger companies and those that are made specifically for a certain function would be best for bigger businesses, like Salesforce as a CRM.

Alternatives Considered

The other products I have used are not available on TrustRadius. I used ConvertKit before I used these other products because I need an all in one platform.

HighLevel is all-in-one, so varying functions of the aforementioned tools are all covered by HighLevel, albeit not as robust as each of them when stacked against their features and functions. But since small businesses usually would not have that deep need, HighLevel is the cost-effective solution that puts everything in one place.
