Our take

Mailchimp is a tool for managing and automating mailing lists and email marketing campaigns. Mailchimp have around 11 million active customers with a total audience of 4 billion.

Going beyond the email services that it has been offering for 20 years, Mailchimp provide technology to record and track customer leads, the ability to purchase domains and build sites, ad retargeting on Facebook and Instagram, and social media management.

Expansion is part of a longer-term strategic play to widen Mailchimp’s scope by building more services for the typically underserved but collectively large small-business segment. Even as multinationals like Amazon and other large companies continue to feel like they are eating up the mom-and-pop independent business model, SMBs continue to make up 48% of the GDP in the U.S, which is great news for Mailchimp.
