Overall Satisfaction with ActiveCampaign
ActiveCampaign is the easiest software for creating regular newsletters for the members of my website. I have used a few other companies for my newsletters in the past but they were always clunky, overly confusing and complicated and the designs of the layouts were less than inspiring. It meant that I avoided writing newsletters and that costs a business dearly!
ActiveCampaign has made it easy for me to talk to my members in just 20 minutes. By creating templates for different areas of the business and having clear and easy to create contact lists I can target different people easily, whether it's to share a job alert, new blog post or podcast or to share a new feature they can check out.
It's also been really easy to integrate it with my website so I don't have to lift a finger. I just set up a email sequence and it's done. Total game changer.

- Easy to save your settings (fonts/colours) so you can use them again if starting a news letter from scratch
- They are constantly updating the way it works. The addition of the backwards step was very much appreciated
- You can easily see previous templates and just rewrite the content to save time
- I like that you can send yourself a test email to see how the layout looks. It's a quick step but has made all the difference
- There could me more tutorials and help for non tech people.
- I know my members feel like my newsletters are going out to just them so there's trust
- I need to set up more regular newsletters to create income from AC
- I am planning on setting up a funnel when I launch my course next month. That's when it will really come into it's own
- Mailchimp and Sendinblue
I couldn't work out how to use Mailchimp. It took ages, never looked good and I gave up.
Sendinblue was okay but the designs weren't as good as ActiveCampaign.
