Overall Satisfaction with Mailchimp
If all you want is email marketing, Mailchimp is still an excellent choice. Even for the free version, it packs a punch! Overall, it's a great marketing start point for most small businesses working with less than 2000 contacts (sadly, it used to be more, if I can recall). Unless you need more bells and whistles, or a more polished digital marketer, then I would recommend one of the paid plans
- Great tutorials and tips
- Templates
- Blog
- It used to be more than 5000 contacts than the free plan, but I guess they changed that figure. I didn't realize they changed that, as I was never near that number anyways!
- Optimistic as it was free. Being a small business, this goes a long way for me, especially during the pandemic.
MailChimp can help you grow your list through easy-to-use and customizable signup forms that can be embedded on your website. MailChimp also allows you to divide your list (in my case, a class list) according to specific groups so you can easily tailor your email messages to different audiences. This would work great as my courses were tailor for a particular group at a particular discount.
I had asked another business that was using MailChimp and asked what they liked. And they suggested the free version for the time being. He was using the free version for many years and thought it was awesome. And he was more of an advanced marketing person than I was, and he said the free version packed a punch!
