Email marketing software shouldn’t feel like a trap.

But for many small businesses, that’s exactly what it’s become! Confusing pricing tiers, unexpected limitations, and policies that punish growth.

At Sanna Digital Marketing, we’ve seen firsthand how frustrating it is to pick the right platform, only to realize later you’re being nickel-and-dimed just to access basic features.

That’s why we’ve compiled a list of 6 email marketing platforms that are still small-business friendly:

🔥 #1: MailerLite – Reliable, affordable, and beginner-friendly

⚡ #2: Brevo (formerly Sendinblue) – Solid automation and generous free plan

✨ Tied at #3:
Loops – Great for startups and SaaS

Flodesk – Beautiful emails, flat-rate pricing

ClickFunnels – All-in-one, good for sales funnels

SendPulse – Multichannel and small business-centric

💡 Whether you're just starting your email list or need a fresh campaign strategy, we can help.

✨Little Wins. Big Impact.

One of the things I routinely do as part of client work is check where website traffic is coming from. It helps us understand what’s working, what needs tweaking, and most importantly, if we’re reaching the right audience.

On a recent check for , I noticed something exciting: organic traffic from Nigeria.

That might not seem huge to some, but when your mission is to build a truly pan-African research platform, these small data points are proof that we’re making progress in the right direction.

📍Global reach starts with intentional strategy, and we’re here for brands with a clear niche and big vision.

If you’re building something small but mighty, and want to reach the right audience across borders, we’d love to help.

When in doubt, ask your audience.

We recently ran a LinkedIn poll for one of our clients, Africa Research Hub, to help them choose a topic for their upcoming webinar.

Instead of guessing, we gave their audience a voice. And the result?

A topic that truly resonated, and a webinar with a small but highly engaged turnout.

All because their audience felt seen and involved in the process.

If you're not already using LinkedIn polls, here’s why you should:

1️⃣ They help you validate content ideas before you create them
2️⃣ They increase engagement by inviting your audience to participate
3️⃣ They give you insight into your audience’s actual needs and interests

At Sanna Digital Marketing, we use simple tools like polls to create intentional, audience-led content strategies that work.

The Power of SEO & Consistency

When we began managing the Africa Research Hub website and blog back in June 2024, most of their traffic came from ads and social media.

Fast-forward to 2025; and now, nearly 100% of their web traffic is coming from search engines like Google and Bing. 🚀

This didn’t happen by accident. It’s the result of consistent SEO best practices, keyword research, content optimization, and doing things the right way, no shortcuts, no black-hat tricks.

Why? Because at Sanna Digital Marketing, we care about sustainable growth and always put our clients’ long-term success first.

✅ Need help getting found on Google?
✅ Tired of spending on ads with no real ROI?
✅ Want a team that understands SEO and website management?

We offer a social media + website management package that’s built to grow your visibility organically.

The Power of Knowing Your Audience

When you truly understand your audience, their goals, struggles, and daily context, it shows. And more importantly, they know it.

We recently shared a post on the Africa Research Hub page that featured a relatable graphic and message tailored specifically to African Master’s and PhD students. The result?

✅ 93 reactions
✅ 36 reposts
✅ Our highest engagement yet! And all of it 100% organic.

Why did it work?

Because we didn’t just create content. We spoke directly to the people we were trying to reach. We knew their persona. We reflected them in the design. And they responded by saying, “This is me.”

At Sanna Digital Marketing, we don’t guess, we research, we segment, and we craft content that resonates deeply with your audience.
