Newsletters

[VictoriaONeill]

Hello All,

I am currently looking into setting up a monthly newsletter for my design business but I am not sure how to do this/who the best company to go through, is? and how much it should cost me? There are lots on the internet but I am worried that as I don't know a great deal about it, I will choose the wrong company!

Does anyone have any information on this please?

Although I don't have too much experience with this, I have seen Mail Chimp recommended quite a lot

Absolutely Mail Chimp all the way for me. We use it a lot for ourselves and clients.

I'll third Mail Chimp.

If you'd like an alternative option - we have used Simplycast for four years now - seem very good. No issues.

They have purchased several other companies along the way and are now quite large (or at least seem to be).

I agree, MailChimp is the way forward but another alternative is Campaign Monitor

Get ready with your tables too since thats about the limits of what you can do with html emails :p

Tables and inline CSS seems the best way to go with Newsletters. It's a complete pain but works for the most part across the different email clients.
