I think as my mailing list of potential clients grows I might also take advantage of it. I haven't used iContact so I can't compare, but I have also used MailChimp and really preferred Constant Contact. __________________ Stacey Harris On Demand Virtual Assistant

I preferred the layouts and they way the editing is handled of both the text and the layout. I really like the way the mailing lists are handled, my client sends different focused newsletters to 5 groups so it's nice to be able to simply breakdown and manage those lists. I just had a more overall user friendly experience with Constant Contact then with MailChimp. __________________ Stacey Harris On Demand Virtual Assistant

I have a new client (possibly) who wants to send newsletters via email blasts. I am familiar with Constant Contact and have not used Mail Chimp. This helps....Thanks __________________ Terri Williams, Assisting the small business owner www.terripwilliams.com

It was a deal breaker for my client, as it would be for me. __________________ Stacey Harris On Demand Virtual Assistant

I'm not familiar with Mail Chimp but it may be an option for me. I appreciate the ifo shared in this thread.

Honestly there are so many options out there it often comes down to a preference. __________________ Stacey Harris On Demand Virtual Assistant
