Marketing Titan vs Mailchimp

Mailchimp is cheaper, and for a lot of businesses that is the right answer.

Mailchimp is the default first email tool for good reason: it is inexpensive, familiar, and the free plan gets you sending the same day. If email is the whole job, stop reading and use Mailchimp. This page is for the point where it stops being the whole job.

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.

“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

we mean both columns

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.

Questions

cost, features & fit
Is Marketing Titan cheaper than Mailchimp?

No, not at the same contact count. Mailchimp Premium is $350 a month at 10,000 contacts; Marketing Titan Starter is $499. The difference is that Mailchimp is an email tool and Marketing Titan is a platform covering marketing, sales, brand, analytics and billing.

What does Mailchimp do better?

Email specifically — depth of features, deliverability track record, and cost at small list sizes. It is also the tool most marketers already know how to use.

How many users does Mailchimp include?

The free plan includes 1 seat, Essentials 3 and Standard 5. Only Premium, at $350 a month, includes unlimited seats. Every Marketing Titan plan includes unlimited users.

Can I migrate my Mailchimp audience?

Yes, and it is one of the simplest migrations we do. Contacts, tags, segments, templates and campaign history import directly, usually in under a week.

When should I switch from Mailchimp?

When you are paying for a CRM, a social scheduler, an SEO tool and an AI writer around it. Until then Mailchimp is the cheaper and simpler answer.
