Free Email Marketing for Small Businesses
What is Email Marketing?
Have you ever wondered how people are constantly making sales, growing their community, or finding success when they barely ever post on social media? Their secret is Email Marketing!
Email marketing is what some people call “old school marketing” because it was the original digital marketing strategy that businesses and brands used to market to their customers BEFORE social media was even a thing.
With email marketing you can promote your products, talk about your services, share your podcast, and basically build brand awareness to your community. The possibility of email marketing is endless! You can send newsletter, welcome emails, share social posts, round ups, promotional emails, milestones emails, client wins, and so much more!
And when you’re using tools like FloDesk you can actually have fun creating them.
Top 5 Reasons FloDesk is For Small Businesses
As someone who’s tried all the free platforms or the “low cost” email marketing tools, I can say with my whole body, FloDesk has honestly been the game changer with email marketing. And this was even before they before they hit 10k on Instagram.
1. Intuitive & Beautiful Templates
FloDesk was created by designers for creatives, so whether you’re creating a simple email, a sales email or an automated welcome series for new subscribers, these templates are built to make it easier for you. If you know me, you know that my biggest goal is to simplify the process for my clients and remove the “what do I put here” feeling. These templates are built with filler text that show you examples of what to say, so you can feel confident with what to replace it with.
The templates are also stunning, so you spend less time trying to design something gorgeous, and more time focusing on what you need to do. Basically, with FloDesk it’s like you hired a full design team but without the cost.
2. Endless Resources
If you’re still new to email marketing, or want to learn more about how to use FloDesk they have blog posts, tutorials and even a FloDesk University to teach you all the best practices for using and growing your email list.
3. Unlimited Subscribers For Free
With other email service platforms, you usually see pricing like “Free, Essentials, Standard, Premium” and they all have a starting price, because as you become more successful and start growing your list, you’re forced to pay more. FloDesk DOES NOT punish you for finding success or growing your list. They brag that their users can have 100k subscribers and still be use their email marketing platform for free. Do you know what other platforms charge their customers when they reach 100k subscribers? On average you would pay $700 a month on other platforms, but with FloDesk you can still use their Free Forever.
4. Customer Support
Have you ever noticed how customer support has become AI generated? Or worse, in order to get it you must be paying the highest tier in order to be able to speak to a person? Again, not with FloDesk, they know what they’re doing over there. People need people, no matter what you’re paying. I honestly think this is the most underrated featured they offer. The fact that you can use their platform FOR FREE and still get customer service? WHO ELSE DOES THAT?! (not enough businesses, let’s be honest) But again, when you have a company built for creatives and small businesses, by creatives and small business owners they speak your language.
5. Branding Included
One thing that blows my mind is when an email platform says they’re free or says they’re built for businesses, but don’t allow you to add your branding to the email. With FloDesk they know the importance of branding, which is why even with their Free plan, you get to customize your fonts, use custom domains, personalize your links, AND use their beautiful templates.
Recap
If you’re trying to figure out what email marketing platform is best for you, don’t waste your precious time (like I did) using other platforms that don’t give you full access to all their tools unless you’re paying 100s of dollars. Instead try FloDesk for FREE and if and when you decide to upgrade, use the code HERMESSYBUN at checkout for 50% your entire first year.
