Hi Paras, we might be a good option for you. We're up to 60% cheaper than Mailchimp with segmentation and automation capabilities.
Let me know if I can help at all.
At the start of 2022, it would have cost you $52.99 to have 5000 subscribers on Mailchimp.
Last month it would have cost $59.
Today it costs $69.
The same with EmailOctopus? $24.
No unfair price hikes, just simple, affordable email marketing.
You can now work out exactly how much you can save by switching to
@EmailOctopus
with our new savings calculator. We've seen savings as great as $972 made!
Mailchimp has raised their prices once again.
The last price update happened in February 2023, yesterday they announced their 2nd one this year to customers.
Perhaps it's time to switch from 🙊 to 🐙, where you can save up up to 70%?
SPF/DKIM/DMARC
We always recommend verifying your domain when using EmailOctopus. If you've already verified your domain, then SPF/DKIM will already be set up.
If you send over 5,000 emails per day, you'll want to set up DMARC.
We're providing the record required here to all

We, like every other email provider, are continuing to see high levels of undeliverable mail to
@gmail
addresses.
We're awaiting an update from Google, but in the meantime you can expect an increase in hard bounce rates from Gmail addresses.
MailChimp is crazy pricey. Sad but finally finished moving out our 35k mailing list into

They have the things we need: automation, API, custom webhooks, great support, doesn’t cost an arm and leg.
