      ​@@witandwire what amount of email subscribers do you recommend for each tool. I didn't get a great use case option.. Like when you have less than 2,000 and you haven't launched a product then XYZ. or whatever.

    Holy shizz!! Thank you for bringing Bento into the public eye. I was about to pull the trigger on a migration from ActiveCampaign after 4 years… but Bento is… wow. And it looks like they’re an Aussie brand as well. Bonus. Cheers for the steer 👍🏻

      I had heard about Bento as well from a Web Dev company that had lost their patience with ConvertKit. Obviously more tech savvy than some but I don't see the "coding" part of Bento as much of a challenge and their CEO is very active in their Discord community.

    Upon reading this post on email marketing platforms, I'm eager to see the most recent comparisons as an interested stranger! Even though I've utilized a few of the well-known brands, I've recently started looking into how AI may improve email marketing workflows.

    Thank you for providing these walkthroughs. There are so many options out there that it can be paralyzing. Do you have any content on how to optimize your YT videos? I've noticed that you have a score of 100 on most of your videos and I would love to see a step-by-step guide on your process. All the way from choosing the videos to optimizing the title, description, and thumbnail.

    Thanks Melissa !
    Which software is an affordable and optimal solution to run bilingual newsletters and is beginner-friendly too please ?
    It would be ideal if it filtered sign-ups per language and route them into separate lists (to assess the demand for events & digital products in respective languages) AND if built-in AI could handle the translation of the newsletter content, ideally including any infographics - am I asking too much here or is someone already on it ?? I know Wordpress offers something of the sort but I am not using WP.
    If anyone could help, I'd appreciate!

    • @witandwire

      Good question! But unfortunately, this technical question is a bit more in-depth than we can answer well via UA-cam. Melissa does provide this level of support and help via Wit & Wire’s programs, but there’s no pressure to join. (You can learn more via witandwire.com/courses.)

    What does it mean in active campaigns that you can only send 10 x contacts, is this something new they are doing? I saw something similar in another platform. Great review!

    • @witandwire
      @witandwire  6 днів тому

      Excellent question. Yes, it’s part of a new plan structure that ActiveCampaign announced in June 2024.
      To explain:
      - You draft 1 email and send it to 100 subscribers. This counts as “100 email sends.”
      - Per month, your total number of email sends is equal to (# subscribers) * 10. So for 100 subscribers, you would have 100 * 10 = 1000 email sends
      - A simplified way to think about it is that every contact can receive roughly 10 emails from you per month. This counts both broadcast emails and automated emails.
      I hope that helps!
