Having a CRM platform is crucial, and MailChimp is one of the best, since it allows us to manage a database of our clients and establish an automated email to reduce time and effort.

In Mailchimp you can carry out journeys so that you can convert a lead into a client and also to carry out a retention strategy for them, since you can communicate valuable information and promotions to them to consent. It is important to attract new customers, but it is more important to retain the ones you have already achieved and brands often forget about this stage of the funnel.
