Overall Satisfaction with Mailchimp

I use MailChimp to send out weekly updates and any other mass correspondence among my clients. I am just using it in a single department. It helps me communicate any upcoming events and webinars.
  • Newslettters
  • Resubscription Notices
  • Other correspondence
  • Pricing
  • A/B Splits
  • Subscription Forms
  • Easier Communication
  • Mass Information Distributions
  • Keeping clients informed
MailChimp's drag and drop features are amazing. I haven't seen that in other platforms before. It is so straight forward. Usability is so simple that anyone with any internet know-how can us it.
Mailchimp is one of the easiest email marketing solutions. Between my business and my wife's, we are able to meet all our email marketing needs. This should be a must-have for every small business.
It has sped up the marketing process. From emails to landing pages, to social media post distribution, Mailchimp is the absolute one-stop-shop.
Mailchimp has taught me the effectiveness of email marketing. Being able to distribute my message through email has been important. With landing pages, I am able to set up a quick microsite that gets traffic. I am then able to retarget that traffic with future campaigns.
MailChimp is well suited for sending newsletters. It shouldn't be used to send one off emails.

Price is key when running a small business. I feel that Mailchimp pricing is reasonable for what you get and that's what matters most in the end.
I don't think there is anything I would change.
