What it costs
At 10,000 contacts, Mailchimp costs less.
Premium is the only Mailchimp tier with unlimited seats; Essentials caps you at three and Standard at five. The figure below is the plan that does not punish you for adding people — and it is still cheaper than us. What it does not include is sales, ads, SEO, calling, analytics or billing.
| Line | How it is charged | Per year |
|---|---|---|
| Mailchimp Premium | $350/mo at 10k contacts | $4,200 |
| Marketing Titan — Starter | unlimited users | $5,988 |
| Marketing Titan costs more | 43% higher | $1,788 |
“Mailchimp charges you more as your list grows. That is a strange thing to pay for, because growing the list is the entire point of the exercise.”

Which one you should pick
Choose Mailchimp if…
Where they are the better answer
- Email is the whole job. They are better at it and cheaper, and that is not a close call at small list sizes.
- Your list is under a few thousand. The free plan covers 250 contacts and 500 sends a month; Essentials starts at $13.
- You want something everyone already knows. Hiring someone who can run Mailchimp takes an afternoon.
- You have a CRM you like and only need a sender beside it.
Choose Marketing Titan if…
Where we are
- Your list is growing. Their bill rises with contacts; ours does not.
- You need more than sending. Ads, SEO, social, calling, creative and analytics are included rather than bought separately.
- You want the campaign produced, not just delivered. Agents write, design and schedule it.
- You want revenue attached to the campaign that produced it, in the same record.
