Client lists etc - how to manage and market to

[BTWales]

Run small aesthetics business. Building up a list of emails addresses etc from current/potential clients.

Would like to be able to send out emails such as newsletter, special offers etc.

Looking for some cheap/free software to do this?

 

Try Mailchimp.com.

Looks good.

I was also after something that I could use to manage my contacts as well though....

Mailchimp offers the ability to manage your lists to a limited extent.

We use MailChimp - and I would certainly recommend.

If you want to use the email for marketing, it's all about deliverability and open rates. The FREE ones have a poor history.Pick the best you can afford

[FONT=verdana,geneva,lucida,arial]botoxwales[/FONT], if you're after something simple and cheap we have a product targeted at this space (it's priced similarly to the likes of mailchimp, but is simpler to use). It will also integrate with your website's Google Analytics if you want it to.

I'm not sure about posting the link so will err on the side of caution.

[FONT=arial,sans-serif]Normansmith[/FONT] is correct about the delivery issue - we have a dedicated IP for this service and we make sure every email sent meets best practice unsubscribe guidelines : emails have list-unsubscribe headers and single click to opt out links.

Please let me know if you'd like the web link.

EDIT: Just realised that you wanted contact management too. This product doesn't manage contacts - it is specifically about sending mass/bulk emails, but we can integrate it with any product you might use to manage contacts.
