Best eBlast providers

[kwilkens]

We have tried several different services for email broadcasts to opt-in lists for our clients, but are still searching for a best-of-breed. Does anyone know of ratings or reviews of the various eblast services, or alternately, can you provide recommendations. Thanks.

Hi

If you do a search for Marketing Sherpa - I think if I recall they provided a review of email marketing platform providers in the USA.

I would love to show you the system we offer though, if interested drop me a line through our Website. I am only mentioning this as you ask for best of breed and ours has a particularly smooth user interface.

Hope that this helps.

You could do a quick Google on the subject. I came up with this site who ranked several different providers: http://email-marketing-service-revie...enreviews.com/

It depends on how many features you want the email provider to offer as well. We used Exact Target for a while, but in all honesty, we never used half the features and their stystem had technical difficulties far too often for me to recommned them. We've also used Constant Contact who are good, but if I'm correct their services are pretty basic.

Hope you find a good fit.

You can Google this topic. I did and came up with this site: http://email-marketing-service-revie...enreviews.com/ They list Constant Contact as #8, who I've used - good company, services are fairly basic. I don't recommend using Exact Target; they offer a lot of complex services which you may find useful, but we ran into serious technical difficulties for which they couldn't provide adequate or timely support.

I suggest first making sure you know what you want and how you want to implement features. Then research the companies out there to see who is a good match given your budget. Don't sign a contract for services you're not sure how you'll use even if they are cool, because you might not implement them and then you're paying more than you need to each month.

Hope you find a good fit,

I would suggest not blasting, but using auto responders like www.aweber.com - I used them and liked it. In fact so much I now do the same thing in house.
