Why would I spend money?
Ease of use, tried and true practices, and boostingengagement. Plus, MailChimp even offers a discount forusing one of its recommended designers.
Engaged lists, no matter how small, help improve
deliverability because ISPs judge senders based
on subscriber engagement. Having the biggest list
isn’t always the best, but having the most
engaged one always is.
