UN|HUSHED’s higher open and engagement rates

“Mailchimp was easy to use, but our deliverability rates were just so awful. ActiveCampaign’s inbox receive rates were way better. There were a bunch of factors that y’all were taking into account that other email providers just weren’t. So we switched.”
