    I also want to create a newsletter. I use Gumroad now for my digital products. But I can send newsletters, too. I'm considering Substack. + I'm interested in new ConvertKit's offer: https://convertkit.com/promotion...

    @olenabomko I registered for ConvertKit because they had a quite beneficial promo – I think it is the one you sent. So I am in, but haven't used it. GumRoad is good for selling but I am not sure if there are enough metrics in the dashboard. When comparing Mailchimp and GumRoad (in terms of email marketing) – Mailchimp has many metrics. GumRoad is left behind.

    Substack and Beehiiv seem popular but I haven't used either of them. Are you looking to migrate, Nika?

So, here is list of email newsletter platforms with their key: 1. Mailchimp: User-friendly interface, powerful automation. 2. ConvertKit: Intuitive editor, ideal for creators. 3. Omnisend: eCommerce focus, robust segmentation. 4. Benchmark Email: 200+ templates, full email marketing features. 5. AWeber: Templates, ideal for large subscriber lists. 6. Beehiiv: Monetization focus, digital product creation. 7. Curated: Simple interface for curated content. 8. Flodesk: Unlimited subscribers, flat rate sending. 9. Zoho Campaigns: Budget-friendly, basic. 10. Substack: Paid newsletter platform. 11. GetResponse: Comprehensive features, including automation and webinars. You can choose from here according to your needs. As we say cut your coat according to your cloth! 🍻 You can also visit this link and it shows you a great comparison compiled in a table - https://skrapp.io/blog/best-news...

    I’ve had good experiences with Mailchimp for robust analytics and Substack for community-building features.

    I experienced both Mailchimp and ConvertKit. Another platform worth checking out is Substack. It's great for building a dedicated subscriber base and monetizing content. What specific features are you looking for in a newsletter platform?

    @andreas_sohns Do you have any experience with Beehiiv? I see many people speaking about how easy was to monetize the content thanks to them. I am not sure if I am correct, but do they have something like "showcasing newsletters in similar nichés from other creators"? Maybe something like this could help me with visibility.
