MailChimp vs. Active Campaign

Many people ask us: “What’s the difference between MailChimp and Active Campaign? Can’t we just stick with MailChimp?” MailChimp is great for small businesses that don’t do a lot of automation and segmentation. However, Active Campaign’s tagging abilities give you extremely precise and accurate segmentation down to the molecular level. You simply cannot achieve this level of segmentation and automation with MailChimp. With unlimited, flexible segmentation, Active Campaign allows you to create segments based on demographics, location, behavior, custom fields, tags, and more, so you can pinpoint the exact contacts you want to reach with extremely granular focus.

Why is it so important to segment your email list? Because your prospects and clients are not all the same, you will want to target your emails to them based on what they are interested in, where their needs lie, and where they are in the sales funnel. When you segment out your email list, you will reach them in a very focused, specific, and personal way. Segmented emails typically perform better than general ones, and you will see a drastic improvement in your results.

Marketing Automation Insider has an in-depth side by side review of MailChimp vs Active Campaign that highlights the advantages and disadvantages of both.
