Awesome for a PR manager helping client marketing

What differentiates Mailchimp from other similar products?
I love Mailchimp. Their freemium model is awesome for small businesses with limited budgets. It allowed me to do some email newsletter marketing for a client at no additional cost to our agency. It also saved me lots of time with its user-friendly interface. Its drag-and-drop email builder is intuitive and simplifies the process of designing engaging emails. It also allowed me to rearrange formatting quickly if the client wanted to make changes.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
As someone who isn't exactly a graphic designer, the wide array of pre-designed templates and customization options were much appreciated. It really helped in crafting visually appealing emails without needing design skills. And, as I mentioned before, this saved me so much time and hassle, especially since I had multiple clients to do projects for.
What do you dislike most about this product?
I wish it had more options on the freemium version, but I can understand why it doesn't. They have to make money somehow! Still much better than its competitors.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
As always, assess your needs and budget. This is a great option for a small business or startup that needs to do some email marketing but can't yet afford a robust platform with all the bells and whistles. This allows you to put together professional looking emails and send to a bulk list without hassle. The analytics are helpful too! It's nice that they're not behind a paywall so you can see if emails were delivered, opened, and clicked all in the freemium model.
Pros
- Enables Productivity
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
- Inspires Innovation
