About
Overview
ConvertKit (now Kit) is an email marketing platform built specifically for creators (bloggers, YouTubers, podcasters). It focuses on building deep relationships with audiences through automated email sequences, visual automation builders, and landing pages.
Pricing & Free Tier
Free Tier: Yes. Includes up to 1,000 subscribers and email sending.
Creator: $15/month (billed annually). Unlocks automation sequences, integrations, and unlimited landing pages.
Creator Pro: $29/month. Adds Facebook Custom Audiences and subscriber scoring.
How to Use
- Create an account and set up your sender profile.
- Create a "Form" or "Landing Page" to collect emails.
- Create a "Visual Automation" flow (e.g., send a welcome email, then wait 2 days, then send a freebie).
- Write your first "Broadcast" to send to your entire list.
Important Notes
- Simplicity: ConvertKit lacks the advanced e-commerce features of Klaviyo or Mailchimp, focusing purely on email deliverability and creator workflows.
- Pricing Increases: Like most email marketing tools, the price scales as your subscriber list grows.
