How Is EcoSend Different To Other Email Providers?

21 Jun 2023

So you’re in search of an email marketing platform.

Maybe you’ve looked at Mailchimp, Hubspot, ActiveCampaign, MailerLite and many of the other big names in the email marketing space. 

But have you ever considered that the loudest in the room isn’t always the best option for your business?

When it comes to email marketing it can offer an average ROI of $38 for every $1 spent. Email provides a tried and tested way of advertising your products and service directly to your subscriber’s inbox. 

Now we know why email is still king, here is why EcoSend makes the best choice for businesses that want to create email campaigns that sell while lowering their carbon footprint. 

EcoSend Offers Sustainable Email Marketing

There’s no better place to start than our USP.

EcoSend is the world’s first sustainable email marketing platform. Our systems are powered by renewable energy, we plant trees on our customer’s behalf and we’re reinvesting some of our profits into climate-related causes.

Few businesses realise that digital marketing has a carbon footprint. However, some 300 billion emails are sent every day. Every email can emit up to 50g of CO2 depending on its size or how many times a message been forwarded. 

EcoSend isn’t about getting you to stop sending emails, after all, email is one of the best tools to get sales for your business. However, by sending your email campaigns through EcoSend your email carbon footprint can be vastly reduced. 

We Help The Earth - But We Don’t Charge It

Next up is price.

Some email marketing providers charge a premium for email marketing. In recent months, many have also announced costly price hikes. 

EcoSend has a free plan available, and our paid plans start at just $49 per month. In short, we don’t believe that price should be a barrier to accessing an email marketing tool. 

Our prices include the trees which we’ll plant on your behalf, plus all of the features listed in your individual plan. 

Take a look at our EcoSend plans to choose the right option for your business to get started. 

EcoSend Has Been Created By Email Marketing Experts

EcoSend isn’t a project we’re trying as a side hustle or just for fun.

Our Founder James Gill built our original platform GoSquared Engaged back in 2006. FYI - That’s the same year HubSpot was created! 

James remains very much involved with EcoSend, and as does the rest of the team. So unlike other mail providers where you may well be another number - our whole team cares about each of our customers. Namely, we want your business to succeed at email while helping your business to lower its carbon emissions. 

We’ve built various tools for you to try including: 

Over on the EcoSend podcast, we also talk more about why we built our product. Plus many topics surrounding sustainability that we know you want to hear about, especially as businesses. 

When you sign up for our platform, you’ll benefit from even more features to create email campaigns that sell. 

We Offer Secure GDPR-Compliant Email Marketing

If your email platform has a data breach, guess who looks bad in front of your customers? You. 

EcoSend and our original product GoSquared Engage have always prioritised security along with the need to be GDPR compliant. While for some this may be nothing more than a box-ticking exercise, for us, we realise that keeping your customer data secure is an absolute must. 

So if you’ve previously experienced data breaches with your current email platform, now is the time to switch to an email platform such as EcoSend, where we take our commitment to your data protection seriously. 

Simple Migration Process

EcoSend has a simple migration process.

You can import your contacts using a CSV file. Plus with Zapier integrations there are thousands of tools you can explore. 

Or, you can grow your audience by connecting EcoSend to third-party forms to capture leads.

If you need any help during the process, our sales team would be more than happy to assist.

As noted above, we’ve been in the email marketing space since 2006. During this time, we’ve overseen thousands of email migrations from other platforms. 

Our Business Focus Goes Beyond Profit

Want to partner with an email marketing provider that cares more about making money?

You might be familiar with our environmental focus. But what you might not know is that EcoSend is also big on CSR activities. Once a month, we give up our time to help our communities through the likes of litter picking or volunteering at food banks. 

We believe that if everyone could give even a small amount of time per month, this could make a huge difference in making the world a better place. So if you share this same ethos with your business, switching to EcoSend makes sense. 

Plus, we regularly feature like-minded businesses on our podcast. So maybe switching to a sustainable email marketing platform could also mean you get to collaborate with us too.
