GetResponse is an email marketing platform that also includes live webinar hosting, landing pages, and basic automation. If you run email campaigns, host webinars for prospects, or sell courses, it brings those functions under one subscription.
Key features
- Email campaigns with automation: triggered by subscriber behavior.
- Webinar hosting: for live demos or prospect training.
- Landing page builder: capture leads without a separate tool.
- Commerce integrations and course delivery: on higher tiers.
- List segmentation: for targeted messages.
Pricing
A free plan covers a limited list and basic sending. Paid plans scale by subscriber count, commonly starting around $15 to $20 a month for a few thousand contacts, with webinars and automation at that tier or above.
Prices change over time. Figures above are based on GetResponse’s own pricing page.
Pros and cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Email, webinars, and landing pages in one reduces tool count | More features to learn than a simple email tool |
| Webinar hosting sets it apart from most rivals | Price grows with your list |
| Free plan to test | Some automation and course features on higher tiers |
GetResponse vs Mailchimp
Mailchimp, also covered on atlaspreneur, is a well-known email choice. GetResponse stands out by including webinar hosting in the same subscription. For a full course business, a dedicated platform like LearnWorlds may fit better.
Who it’s best for
Founders who want email marketing plus webinars or course delivery in one platform instead of several subscriptions.
Skip it if you only need basic newsletters. A simpler, cheaper email tool is enough.
How to get started
Start on the free plan to test content and list growth, then upgrade when you need webinars or advanced automation.
FAQ
Can I host a webinar for prospects in different time zones? Yes, it supports scheduling and registration. Plan timing carefully.
