Something for MailChimp users or anyone thinking of becoming a MailChimp user...

I work with clients using a variety of platforms and due to the size of MailChimp user base it crops up frequently.

It's not just used by mom & pop anymore, I know one company that sent 6.7 million emails last month on MailChimp.

But one thing I do see is a common set of things MailChimp users get wrong.

So here's the top five >>

Covers everything from deliverability, saving money to making money.

Marketing Influencers, 

We have rushed but just released Retainly Marketing Automation's Beta, 20 minutes back. We have not done a public announcement yet. But I guess no harm to invite you all close friends to sign up first and test the platform's capability. 

Retainly has been built with simplicity in mind, for Bloggers, Digital Media, SaaS, Internet Business, Real Estate, and others. It includes both the traditional and modern approach to email marketing. You can bulk upload your contacts into Lists and send them blasts- for Traditional Marketers. Or you can automatically add your contacts into Segments using either Retainly's Tracking Script, or Intercom, Segment, Woopra, Mixpanel, Wordpress - for modern Marketing Automation. 

If you have event tracking enabled using any of the above scripts, Retainly will automatically track your customer events. We designed a machine learning adaptive mechanism with which your contacts can automatically move between Live Segments based on their Behavior. You can set auto triggers to such Live Segments and send auto-selected customers real-time and relevant notifications via Email, SMS, and InApp. (Push Notification is coming soon).  

We also introduced PromoBox that can be embedded within your Blogs and even within your Medium Posts to collect New Subscriber information. I am too excited to know about your experience and feedback about Retainly. But let me stop my chatter and let you experience the other features. 

You can signup now. I promise it will be fun and easy.

Hi all,

My staff recently launched one of the most comprehensive and accurate email marketing glossaries out there. Our Ultimate Email Marketing Glossary includes terms that are often misused or misunderstood, like email client and delivery rate. We’re at 127 terms and growing. We hope you find it helpful! http://www.kateycharles.com/glossary

Hi everyone,

We (Iterable) have a new User Engagement Teardown this week, this time focusing on what messages Uber and Lyft send out after signup and how they compare.
