EMAIL MARKETING

I am currently using Get Response Email Autoresponder service. I don't use it much, mainly just for local small biz offers. My current list is less than 200. I'm paying $15 p/m .. $180 per year, this allows me to have a max of 1000 subscribers.

Given my small usage, I'm not sure that it's worth it for me to continue paying even though it's only $180 p/yr.

So I would like to get your suggestions and thoughts on what autoresponder, Free or Paid I could consider.

Thanks for your suggestions in advance.

Mailchimp has a free plan. Otherwise, Active Campaign is only $9/MO which includes some marketing automation features.

Surprised that being a veteran member you're not aware of other Email Autoresponders.

according to my fellow internet marketers, their rating for autoresponders are
1st = Aweber
2nd = GetResponce
3rd = MailChimp

how frequent did you sent emails to them... for all 200 email address.. how many of them are active?

Aweber gets my highest recommendation, followed by GetResponse...

Which by process of elimination, should give you a good idea of what I recommend

Given that you do not do any affiliate marketing it would make sense to go with mailchimp. It is free up to 2,000 subscribers.

If you don't use it much...and you don't need an autoresponder series...then go with the free option of mailchimp....

any reason why you don't email them much?

If you want to increase your mailing list my advice is to continue using getresponse.

Otherwise use mailchimp, free under 2000 subscribers!

  If you are planning to grow Getresponse is great. It has many FREE course that you can use to grow your list and expand your business. This more than justifies the $180. If growth isn`t in your plans mailchimp is a good choice.

  7 years ago I started out with GR but after some issues of reliability, I switched to aweber.
  
  And have been happy with them since.
  
  I would stick with a Paid Service even with a small List.
  
  If you are not profiting enough to warrant a paid service, then you need to evaluate the efficiency of your own business
