Whether you're managing an email list of 50 or 1,000 subscribers, choosing the right email marketing tool matters. In this video, I break down MailerLite, Flodesk, and Kit (formerly ConvertKit) side by side so you can see exactly how they compare on pricing, automations, deliverability, integrations, and ease of use.

I've built email systems on dozens of platforms, and these are the three I keep coming back to for online businesses.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:

✅ The two questions to ask before choosing any email platform
✅ How MailerLite, Flodesk, and Kit compare on pricing, features, and deliverability
✅ Which free tiers are actually usable (and which ones aren't)
✅ Why all-in-one platforms like Kajabi might be costing you more than they're worth
✅ The one factor that matters more than templates or fancy features
