Buttondown vs. Drip

Which platform will take your newsletter to the next level?

Drip is a tech company that focuses on independent e-commerce shops. The company gathers and organizes customer data, and then enables e-commerce retailers to use that data to make personalized omnichannel customer journeys at scale. Drip believes smaller e-commerce brands deserve the tools to connect with their customers and compete against larger companies. Their goal is to bring corner store vibes to any online shop to give customers a reason to keep coming back.

Drips’s key features include:

  • Automations
  • Analytics
  • Integrations
  • Personalization and segmentation
  • Customer service   

Drip’s product features are designed specifically to support small e-commerce grow their brand and produce higher conversion rates. This means their platform is ideal for small shops and brands. If you are a tutor, content creator, or freelancer, Drip’s e-commerce-fueled segmentation wouldn’t benefit your goals of growing your mailing list and building a strong community. Even their integrations center around e-commerce companies like Shopify, WooCommerce, and BigCommerce. The analytics and automation tools center around purchase behavior and shop order data.

I wanted a platform that was being actively cared for, something I could trust would keep working, and that could flex and adapt to what I was doing, which was and still is often changing.
