Challenges Faced
While Mailchimp offered some initial success, Carbon Offroad identified several limitations that necessitated a new email marketing solution
Limited Integration
The existing email marketing solution (Mailchimp) didn’t seamlessly integrate with the Neto platform, causing operational inefficiencies for Carbon Offroad.
The past tools that Carbon Offroad used did not have the capability to seamlessly trigger newsletter campaigns. They demanded tedious manual work, especially around integrating pop ups and email marketing sequences.
Lack of Local Support
As an Australian business, Carbon Offroad required dedicated local support, which Mailchimp couldn’t provide sufficiently.
Cost Control Challenges
Managing the increasing costs of their email marketing solution became a concern as Carbon Offroad’s business expanded. They needed a more cost-effective option.
Solutions that SmartrMail offered
When SmartrMail launched, offering a seamless integration with Neto, Carbon Offroad quickly adopted the platform due to its appealing offer and the advantage of local support. As the business transitioned to Shopify, the integration with SmartrMail proved even more comprehensive.
After a thorough market review, it was evident that SmartrMail was the best choice for their business model, providing a balance of cost-effectiveness, integration capabilities, and robust customer support.
