There's no doubt Constant Contact do email marketing well and have been for a long long time.
But did you know that back when Constant Contact was founded, email was primarily used for reaching your friends not your customers. For Constant Contact users today the same holds true, with no deep integrations for popular e-commerce platforms like Shopify and BigCommerce, email marketing with Constant Contact isn't for making sales.
SmartrMail is 100% e-commerce sales focused that's why when you login the first thing you see is a real-time dashboard with all your sales and orders. Without a single click or file upload, your account is automagically loaded and constantly synced with your customers, products, and sales data.
With no "Plus" plan necessary (and at a lower price), you've got access to powerful e-commerce email marketing and automation features – including our special sauce: Automated Product Recommendation Emails
Our advanced algorithms analyze each of your customers' past purchase history, browsing behaviour, and email clicks to send a personalized product recommendations straight into your customers' inboxes. These emails literally do your email marketing for you!
Included in your lower price are, automated abandoned cart emails, welcome emails, and a free email collection popup. Everything you need to get more sales for your store is right at your fingertips.
Your customers want personalized online shopping experiences. So why are you still sending the same product newsletter to your entire list or segments? SmartrMail helps you get the right products infront of the right customers by sending them 1-to-1 personalised emails through our deep integration with Shopify and BigCommerce.
Constant Contact doesn't collect any data on your customers' purchases or browsing behavior. That leaves you in the dark when it comes to knowing which products your customers are most likely to buy in your next email.
With Constant Contact you're lucky to get one email out a week having to manually upload your product images (while paying for data storage space!) and copy-paste your descriptions and links. SmartrMail automatically pulls your product from your Shopify or BigCommerce store complete with images, descriptions, and links – literally letting you add a product to your email in seconds.
All the products, images, and text you add to your emails are automatically put together in an easily customizable mobile-responsive email template – because no one likes spending hours composing and testing their emails.
