  3. It’s so good to see a quality list with other email marketing providers other than the usual big names. I expected to Mailchimp, aWeber and Constant Contact. To my surprise, only Mailchimp is here. Along with a lot of different companies I haven’t tried. For now, I’m ok with Mailchimp’s free package. But as I grow, I know I’ll probably need to switch it up. Thanks for sharing this!
