Email marketing product
Hello all,
Despite of so many email marketing product in the market, is it still worth to create and launch product similar product like mailChimp, sendgrid.com to send bulk email and compaigns
If yes, then what would be the best way to start and get your first clients?
I think you're asking the wrong question.
Everybody needs to send emails. And there are some great generic email products like the ones you mentioned.
However Dropbox, my local plumber, and my parents all have very different needs from an email product.
My $0.02 would be to go and talk to people working in a niche you understand/enjoy. Could be gyms, dentists or something completely different. Really understand their email needs and see if there's something you can build, tailored just to this niche, which is 'better' for them than one of the generic products already on the market.
You probably won't enjoy competing against Mailchimp directly, but in a niche market (where you are focussed 100% on that niche), you have a pretty good chance...
Good luck!
Good point. Sendgrid and others are more generic, Go niche if you want to succeed.
Thanks a lot !! :)
Sure, there's enough space for more competitors.
This thread has some good advice: https://www.indiehackers.com/forum/is-the-email-marketing-saas-world-too-saturated-to-create-my-own-a19909c7cb
Sendgrid.com has good features! You can also try Mailshake, it's an effective email marketing tool

ConvertKit is an excellent example of a niche email marketing platform that is relatively new and crushing it!
sendgrid is a good tool for email marketing, but i liked mailchimp and also used mailshake as well it is an automation tool for sending mass emails, track the emails
The Postcards can be a useful tool for email marketers. It's not related to a soft that send email, but to the app that build emails.

I hope it will be useful.
