GreenRope vs Constant Contact
Email marketing software is great, but it can only take you so far when it comes to effectively converting leads. That’s where marketing automation software and small business CRM comes into play. Unlike email marketing, marketing automation offers the ability to send more timely, personalized messages to your leads resulting in higher conversion rates. Constant Contact is a powerful email marketing platform, but contains only one piece of the puzzle. You will also need to invest in CRM and a marketing automation platform, among other systems to optimize your processes. Instead, with GreenRope, you have all of those tools and more, right in the palm of your hands.
