Already Drawing Comparisons To...

It's been less than one week and we're already being compared to other email marketing platforms! See for yourself:


Pricing: How we compare:

The way that most email marketing platforms price their services can be confusing. Here's a quick way to determine which platform is right for you.

If you send more than 3,000 emails per month to a list of more than 500 people, then 3Step offers the best pricing by far. If you have a list smaller than 500 people and send less than six times per month, than iContact and 3Step are about the same.

Ultimately, 3Step provides the best value for the price!

An Even 'Faster' 3Step!

Last week we upgraded our servers to speed up our deliverability rates, which was good news. The bigger news I'm pleased to announce however, is our recent partnership with Fast Pitch! - one of the fastest growing online business networks in the world.

For those of you unaware, Fast Pitch! is an online business network designed to help professionals market their business - as opposed to other networks designed for career advancement and social interaction. The site is used by hundreds of thousands of people from around the world to make connections, distribute press releases, post events, create video and now, send email campaigns - courtesy of 3Step!

The partnership allows any paid member of the Fast Pitch! network free access to our email marketing platform. Depending upon their level of membership, Fast Pitch! members can send anywher from 5,000 - 50,000 emails through 3Step each month.

The partnership puts us 'on the map' from day one as thousands of Fast Pitch! premium members are essentially, 3Step customers with the potential to help spread the word about our simple, cost-effective email marketing platform. In fact, since Fast Pitch! announced the feature on their network late last week, over 500 of their members have already set up their accounts and started sending. We look forward to working closely with the dynamic management team at Fast Pitch! in the coming years as we continue to enhance our platform and provide even more value to their membership packages.

We're Live!

Last week we officially went live!

Although we were 'technically' live with our initial 100 Beta customers, we weren't officially ready to make the announcement. A special thank you to those first brave 100 for their patience while we worked out the kinks.

We look forward to a big marketing push as we head into the New Year.

Stay Tuned.
