The Art of Selling: A Realtors vs Email Marketing Comparison

11 Reasons Mailchimp Stand Out

My husband and I recently started the process selling our home to relocate.

Initially, we made a checklist of tasks: repainting dull areas, fixing a toilet, recaulking baseboards, trimming hedges, pressure washing sidewalks, and more. 
  
Then, we enlisted the help of a realtor to set up our home on selling platforms, arrange for professional photos, stage our house, and be available for viewings.

Now that we have a prospective buyer who’s signed a contract, a new set of tasks awaits, such as an appraisal, inspection, negotiations, and a title search. 

It’s a reminder that success in any endeavor demands taking the necessary steps.

Marketing a business is no different. It requires effort and a systematic approach.

Personally, I’ve found a game-changer for marketing: Email Marketing!

What is email marketing?

It’s a digital strategy involving sending commercial messages via email to a targeted group. These messages can vary from promotions to newsletters, aiming to foster customer relationships, engagement, and sales growth.  

But let’s shift the focus to the tool that revolutionized my email marketing: Mailchimp.

Think of Mailchimp as having a realtor for your marketing needs – understanding, guiding, problem-solving, building relationships, and offering support. 
 
As far as business platforms go, Mailchimp has become another favorite of mine to market my business.  

And it’s this month’s feature of the month!
 




Here are 11 reasons Mailchimp stands out:
 

1. Easy to Use: It’s incredibly user-friendly, even for beginners. 

2. Affordable: You can enjoy its unique marketing tools without going broke. 

3. Reliable: Your email contacts will always be yours, even if other platforms like social media have an outage like what happened a few weeks ago. 

4. Relationship Building: Mailchimp facilitates excellent connections with your friends or potential clients. 

5. Automated Follow-ups: This platform streamlines client outreach with automated funnels.

6. Creative Expression: Mailchimhas allowed me to express myself with my unique brand identity. 

7. Smooth Integration: Mailchimp easily integrates with calendars and meeting platforms like Calendly or Zoom, and it’s easy to set up. 

8. Multi-Purpose Tools: There are countless ways to utilize Mailchimp’s features, spanning from creating landing pages to crafting newsletters.

9. Accessibility: You can share landing pages without needing a website. This is extremely helpful, especially if you are just starting out. 

10. Subscription Options: With Mailchimp, you can make “subscribe here” offers to grow your followers on social media quickly.

11. Analytic Insights: This platform provides valuable insights to help you refine your marketing strategies.  

With Mailchimp, I’ve found a reliable partner in marketing, empowering me to connect, create, and thrive digitally.  

It’s like having a “digital marketing realtor” – guiding you through the landscape of email marketing, ensuring success.  

And it can do the same for you, too!
