Constant Contact is the most affordable platform today, and will also provide you with affordable list growth longer term.

However, we’d recommend visiting Constant Contact and ConvertKit's pricing pages to get a precise quote based not just on your list size but also your feature requirements.

While it’s useful to compare pricing head-to-head like this, it’s also important to remember that Constant Contact and ConvertKit may provide different levels of value to your organisation.

Which brings us neatly onto our next question.
