Default An Alternative to Constant Contact
Does anyone know of a good email marketing tool (similar to CC) that is cheaper than Constant Contact or free? I am looking for something for a client that will accommodate her 500+ contacts and not cost a lot every month. I think CC charges $15.00 a month.

Thanks!

Hi Andrea, I use Vertical Response - there is no monthly fee at all and you just pay per credit [per email]. The more credits you buy at a time the cheaper they are, and I believe they give you 25 free at signup so you can test it out.

Good
Here's a previous thread on yet another no-monthly-fee newsletter program that another member really liked, called Mail Chimp. Check out that conversation here.

I like Mail Chimp also. Another alternative is iContact.
