Email Marketing Software

Updated:

In a past life, I did marketing. So, I am always on the lookout for cheap solutions, especially for doing this author thing. One way to keep your audience engaged is through newsletters and alerts when you have a new book coming out.

Most email providers (yahoo, gmail, etc.) frown on you using their services to send out stuff like this. I've used Constant Contact and a few others in my past life, but they can get pricy.

I found a new one called mailer lite. The first 1,000 contacts are free.

Just thought I would share. Free is good, right?

I've never had a problem sending email posts, images and links on both Charter, Gmail and my private servers over the years. But then, I've never sent anywhere near 1,000 posts!

That's why I run my own server - you can spin up a very low cost (or even free) instance on AWS and run a mail server, including using software that allows you to maintain opt-in subscription mailing lists.
