Why We're an Ideal Email Solution for UK Marketers

1. Get your own dedicated Account Manager

When you sign up to use an email marketing service, you’ll discover a platform with plenty of functionality. Choose Mailchimp and you’ll be expected to navigate this new terrain and learn about how to use it to your best advantage by yourself. A company as huge as Mailchimp can’t provide that personal touch for its customers, it would demand too much of a time and money investment. That’s where Smart Messenger's UK email marketing platform is a great Mailchimp alternative.

It doesn’t matter whether you sign up for a Lite, Standard or Pro email marketing account with us, you’ll get a dedicated Account Manager for customer support, as a constant contact point to help you. From day one, this email marketing expert will help you get to grips with our user-friendly Smart Messenger platform and offer advice along the way. There is no limit to how much help they’ll give you, so you can rely on them to be there whenever you need guidance.

Why not take a peek at some of our team members so you can see who we are, find out about our specialisms and connect on LinkedIn too, if you wish?

Our Team

2. A bespoke service for your business

Our Smart Messenger experts make it their business to know your business. Having worked with customers in many different industries and with diverse email marketing goals, our team have plenty of experience you can draw on. They’ll take the time to get to know your business, what you are trying to achieve and will help you to succeed. 

In contrast, when you use Mailchimp, you are just one of a vast number of people using their platform. The help they offer is generic and you’ll never receive a comparable level of personal service. Smart Messenger provides great functionality and has the added benefit of bespoke advice, which makes it an excellent alternative to Mailchimp.

To get started, you may wish to use our Bespoke Template service. Bespoke email templates are created by our in-house designer and will complement your brand perfectly. They only cost £149+VAT. Alternatively, for the full deal, choose our Email Starter Package at just £169+VAT and we'll also design a newsletter sign-up form for you!

3. Access UK-based phone support

When you are trying to craft the perfect email marketing campaign, struggling to find the function you need or in need of a quick fix, it’s much easier to pick up the phone. Trying to explain it in a chat box or via email can be a long, arduous process, especially when there’s most likely a simple fix. If you can’t find the answer to your problem in Mailchimp’s help section, you can’t ring your account manager for help. Instead, you may be left trawling their help centre, trying to find the answers. 

You never need to do that when you are using Smart Messenger. Our team are UK-based and offer phone support during working hours. So, when that annoying niggle happens, you can get it sorted straight away.

Or maybe you'd like some guidance on getting the most from Smart Messenger. From advice on how to use social sharing to maximise the reach of your campaigns via social media, to providing practical tips on segmenting your data, we're here to help. In fact, if you happen to be local or in Norwich, you can even pop into our offices if you want a quick chat over a cuppa and we’ll be delighted to see you.

It’s all part of the Smart Messenger Email Marketing service we offer, and we are always there to make life easier for you. 

Friendly Support & Advice

You Won't Miss Out Picking Smart Messenger Over Mailchimp 

Now you know the top three reasons that Smart Messenger is one of the best alternatives to Mailchimp, we want to reassure you that we’re also very similar. 

Smart Messenger’s email price list is comparable to Mailchimp, and we have three plans for you to choose from. Our most affordable Lite platform for businesses starts at just £10 per month (plus VAT). This plan is an excellent place for small businesses to start up their email marketing efforts and explore the benefits of reaching customers this way without breaking the budget. Not only can you store an unlimited number contacts in your account without penalty, there are lots of other features you will love too. 

If you want more advanced features and functionality, including advanced automation features, advanced segmentation, split testing, integrated Google Analytics, more custom fields, drag-and-drop template building, landing page builder, and custom drag-and-drop form builder, our Pro plan is just £30 per month (plus VAT). Like Mailchimp, the plan tiers offer you more features with every step up, so you can decide what works best for you and just pay for extra email credits as and when you need them, so you will not see the words, as you do on Mailchimp, not enough credits. With Smart Messenger, there are no long-term commitments when it comes to your sending credits, you only pay for what you send.

Our Lite, Standard and Pro plans are all competitively priced, and when you add in the personalised service and advice we offer, they are a great UK Mailchimp alternative.  Remember, it's not easy to get a real-life human being on the phone to help you navigate the Mailchimp platform, but our friendly Smart Messenger team are ready to talk when you need them.

Like Mailchimp, we also offer real-time, comprehensive reporting with every package, with features including campaign comparison tools so you can discover what’s working well and what you should change. By tracking engagement, you can learn what your customers are responding to and drive sales. You can also make your email campaigns personal by customising data fields on all three of our plans. 

With our premium plans, Standard and Pro plans, you can use automation to create sales funnels and streamline your messaging, plus you can use the Google Analytics integration to obtain even more data to interrogate as you plan future campaigns.

With a variety of design tools and a bespoke template building service, businesses can create visually appealing emails that are optimised for desktop and mobile devices, ensuring that your messages reach your subscribers wherever they are.

How to Use Mailchimp?

Mailchimp is an email marketing tool, used by businesses across the world to communicate with their customers via email. What most people don’t realise is that there are some good mailchimp alternatives available with the same or even better functionality, service and a personal level of customer support. 

Email marketing software doesn’t have to be Mailchimp! 

Benefits of Mailchimp?

Alternatives to Mailchimp?

Smart Messenger is the ideal UK alternative to Mailchimp and Moosend, or if you're looking for Constant Contact alternatives or alternatives to Campaign Monitor. Our email marketing tool works in an intuitive and user-friendly way. Our plans start from £10 to £35 a month and offer unlimited contacts, custom data fields, real-time reports, a dedicated Account Manager, unlimited support, automation, workflows, google analytics integration, drag & drop form builder and landing page builder.

Smart Messenger is a great email marketing platform for both small and larger senders alike. You can keep it simple and use your Account Manager to help you get the most from your campaigns. Or you can create advanced segmentation, detailed automated user journeys, carry out split testing to improve targeting and more - all with the support of your dedicated Account Manager!

Is Mailchimp Easy to Learn?

Despite being the largest email marketing tool available, Mailchimp can be tricky to master. You have to teach yourself with limited support such as chatbots, live chat and forums, this results in a significant upfront time investment that’s reset every time they update the platform. With Smart Messenger, your Account Manager provides full training and support so you can be up and running in no time. We’re also on hand to provide customer support and best practice guidance whenever you need it - just a phone call or an email away! 

How is Mailchimp Customer Support?

Speaking of customer support, Mailchimp mainly provides answers via email which can take time and is not personalised. At Smart Messenger your dedicated Account Manager is just a phone call away to talk you through any issues you might be facing. If you prefer email we will get back quickly with a personalised answer. 

Is Mailchimp Free?

Yes, for a very basic plan it is but not all good things are free! While Mailchimp does offer a free plan it has limited functionality and support and means there will be Mailchimp branding at the bottom of every email you send. It is also limited in the amount of emails you can send, so you may find that Mailchimp does not offer enough credits for you to stay on the free plan. Although Smart Messenger doesn’t offer a free plan, our prices start at an affordable £10 a month and our solution offers significant advantages and functionality compared with Mailchimp’s paid plans. The main two being a dedicated Account Manager and unlimited contacts!  You will never have to see the words 'Mailchimp not enough credits' again. 

How Much Does Mailchimp Cost?

Mailchimp's pricing for email marketing services varies depending on the number of subscribers and the features required by the user. In contrast, Smart Messenger offers a simpler, more transparent pricing model, plus exceptional personalised support across all subscription tiers.

Mailchimp Pricing

Mailchimp calculates its monthly fees on a sliding scale based on the number of contacts and the volume of emails you wish to send. The price of your plan is determined by your maximum contact count, which includes subscribed, unsubscribed, and inactive contacts. Your monthly bill and sending limit are based on the number of contacts within your selected pricing tier.

Mailchimp's free plan offers basic features and supports up to 500 contacts. For users with more than 500 contacts, the Essentials, Standard, and Premium plans provide enhanced features. However, even if your active contacts are fewer than your inactive ones, you will still be billed according to the pricing tier that includes your total contact count. In addition, there are overage fees for exceeding the contact or monthly email sending limits.

It’s important to note that telephone support and personalised onboarding are only available with Mailchimp’s most expensive plans.

Transparent Pricing With Smart Messenger

Smart Messenger offers straightforward pricing that's easy to understand using our pricing calculator. Unlike Mailchimp pricing, ours is based on the number of emails you send, not the number of contacts you store. This means you can manage unlimited contacts, including inactive ones and unsubscribes, without worrying about additional charges. While maintaining list hygiene is essential, our global suppression list ensures you won't accidentally contact unsubscribed individuals who have opted out. Once someone unsubscribes, our system automatically prevents any further emails to them, removing that concern entirely! This structure means that Smart Messenger is often a cheaper alternative to mailchimp.

Starting from just £10/month, all Smart Messenger plans include personalised onboarding, a dedicated Account Manager and unlimited phone support. We are dedicated to providing exceptional support to all our clients, setting us apart in the industry.

In summary, while Mailchimp offers a choice of various tiers and features, its pricing structure is more complex and support is only available with the more costly plans. Smart Messenger provides a clear and personalised alternative, tailored for organisations seeking UK-based service, unlimited support and transparent pricing.

Is Mailchimp a Good Choice?

Overall, there are several reasons why choosing Mailchimp has its drawbacks. The support you get, even on a paid plan, is mainly via email and chatbots and you could be passed from pillar to post to have an enquiry answered. With Smart Messenger, your Account Manager gets to know you on a personal level and is available on the telephone or via direct email to support you with any issues, so you only have one point of contact. 

Another issue is privacy. Mailchimp is based in the US which means your data and, by extension, that of your customers, is held there. Privacy Shield was recently ruled as invalid by the EU Court of Justice which created a need for a new way to protect EU and UK citizens’ data that’s held in the US. Smart Messenger is a UK based company which means we’re bound by UK and EU privacy laws. Our in-house data practitioners ensure we’re always staying compliant, helping you stay compliant too! We’re always happy to answer any data protection or privacy-related questions you may have.

Top UK Mailchimp Alternatives

While Mailchimp has been a popular email marketing platform for many years, there are now a growing number of alternatives available to businesses. With so many options, it can be challenging to know which one is the right choice for your needs. Naturally, Smart Messenger's UK email marketing platform is our top recommendation for businesses looking for the best alternative to Mailchimp, although there are other contenders in the market. Each of these alternatives offers unique features and benefits that can help businesses create successful email marketing campaigns.

While Mailchimp may be a well-established player in the email marketing market, Smart Messenger offers a number of advantages that make it a compelling alternative for businesses of all sizes. With its personal touch, UK-based phone support, advanced segmentation and personalisation options, drag-and-drop template editor, transparent pricing, and excellent customer support, Smart Messenger is a platform that can help businesses achieve their email marketing goals and stand out in a crowded market.

Why Smart Messenger is the Top Choice for so many UK Email Marketers

Of all the Mailchimp alternatives, we believe Smart Messenger is the best email marketing solution choice for UK businesses. Here's why:

1. Dedicated account manager: Smart Messenger provides each client with a dedicated account manager who is available to provide comprehensive initial training to help you get started with the platform and to provide ongoing support whenever you need it. This personal touch is especially important for businesses that are new to email marketing and need extra guidance.
2. Bespoke services: Unlike Mailchimp, which provides generic advice and support, Smart Messenger's experts take the time to understand your business and provide advice based on your specific needs. This tailored approach means that you get the most out of the platform, and your email campaigns are more effective at engaging your audience.
3. UK-based phone support: Smart Messenger provides UK-based phone support during working hours, which means you can easily get in touch with a real person when you need help, rather than trying to navigate your way through help centres, negotiate with chatbots or having to wait for an email response.
4. Advanced segmentation and personalisation: Smart Messenger allows you to segment your subscribers based on specific criteria, such as their interests or location, enabling you to create targeted campaigns that are more relevant to your subscribers. Additionally, Smart Messenger allows you to personalise your emails with dynamic content, so each subscriber sees content that is tailored to their specific interests or behaviour.
5. Drag-and-drop template creator/editor: Smart Messenger's drag-and-drop email template editor is a powerful tool that enables you to create beautiful and engaging emails without any coding knowledge. With the editor, you can easily add images, videos, buttons, and other elements to your emails, and then preview them to ensure they look great on desktop and mobile devices.
6. Forms and landing page builder: Smart Messenger's forms and landing page builder is another useful feature that enables you to create custom landing pages for your email campaigns. Landing pages are an effective way to drive conversions by providing a targeted, focused message that encourages visitors to take a specific action, such as filling out a form to subscribe to a newsletter, for example.
7. Transparent pricing: Smart Messenger's email marketing costs compares very favourably with Mailchimp and other competitors, and the platform offers a range of pricing plans to suit businesses of all sizes and budgets, with no long-term commitments or hidden fees.
8. Excellent customer support: Smart Messenger's customer support is second to none, with a friendly and responsive team of email experts always on hand to help clients if they have a query, from getting started to advanced features.

Switching From Mailchimp?

While Mailchimp is undoubtedly one of the most popular email marketing platforms available, it may not be the best fit for every business – especially those marketers who would like responsive, personalised support from real people. Smart Messenger, on the other hand, offers a powerful and cost-effective alternative for UK businesses looking to take their email marketing efforts to the next level.

With its dedicated account managers, bespoke service, UK-based phone support, advanced segmentation and personalisation capabilities, drag-and-drop email template editor, landing page builder, transparent pricing, and excellent customer support, Smart Messenger is an ideal alternative to Mailchimp for businesses that want a more effective and tailored approach to their email marketing campaigns.

So, if you're looking for a UK-based email marketing platform that can provide a professional, fully featured email marketing solution with a superior level of personal support to Mailchimp, without the high costs or generic advice, Smart Messenger is the perfect choice.

UK Support for UK Businesses

Email marketing can be challenging for UK businesses, particularly when relying on self-service, global platforms like Mailchimp. From navigating the UK Data Protection Act 2018 (formerly GDPR) to accessing timely customer support, organisations often benefit from working with a provider that truly understands the local market.

This is where Smart Messenger stands out as a leading UK Mailchimp alternative. We focus on the specific needs of UK businesses with features that simplify compliance and provide personalised customer support.

Data Protection Guidance

Smart Messenger makes staying compliant with data protection regulations straightforward. With our platform, your data remains securely in the UK, giving you peace of mind that it won’t be transferred abroad. Plus, our team is always on hand to offer advice and the platform includes built-in tools for managing consent and subscriber data. For example, once someone unsubscribes, the system automatically prevents you from emailing them again, keeping you on the right side of the law.

Personalised Local Support

Every business works differently, so we give you the choice of contacting us by phone or email if you need help. Whichever you prefer, you’ll always receive a prompt and helpful response from a real person. Unlike platforms where you might be stuck chatting with bots or searching through forums for answers, Smart Messenger provides direct access to experts. And unlike Mailchimp, you don’t need to pay for an expensive premium service to get this level of support as it’s included with your monthly subscription to Smart Messenger, with options starting at just £10 a month.

We take a hands-on approach to customer service, including getting you up and running on the system. Our dedicated account managers offer full training on the platform, along with tailored advice on improving your email campaigns, from refining segmentation strategies to boosting click-through rates. Have a question? Just give us a call, and we’ll guide you through it.
For UK businesses looking for more than a one-size-fits-all solution, Smart Messenger offers the ideal combination of personal support, advanced tools and UK-specific expertise. Talk to us and discover how a local partner can transform your email marketing.
