Hey, guys, what's up? It's Christine Seale,
the HighLevel queen. Are you guys tired of paying one hundred, two hundred,
three hundred or maybe four hundred or more dollars per month for ActiveCampaign
only to have to keep bumping up your subscription when you add users?
Well, I have good news for you guys, actually.
Great news.
And now HighLevel actually has a workflow
builder and is a total replacement for ActiveCampaign.
So I'm going to review the features, pricing,
ease of use and support for both of these platforms as well as some other goodies.
So let's get started.
All right, so this is the battle
of ActiveCampaign and HighLevel, and I'm going to show you guys
everything Beecher's pricing is of set up and then reporting support.
I'll talk about briefly.
So first, a features.
OK, now you can see this chart
on ActiveCampaign website and it shows you what you get.
Now, ActiveCampaign is primarily an email marketing platform.
OK, now the downside with ActiveCampaign
is that it limits what you can do by the number of contacts on your list.
OK, now I'll get to that in a moment,
but it can get quite pricey if you have thousands of people on your list right now
for the right plan, which I think most people are on the right
plan, you have to commit to a yearly and it's nine dollars a month.
So it's one hundred eight dollars a year.
And you only get the email marketing, you can send newsletters,
you can create subscription forms, which is pretty basic.
Of course, you're going to have
subscription forms, new marketing, automation.
Chat and email supporter and up to three users, what do three users?
OK, that doesn't give you a whole lot.
The plus plan now I have this.
The screenshot I took was actually ten
thousand contacts, but the plus plan is for five hundred contacts.
It's forty nine dollars a month, which is still quite a bit of money.
If you only have five hundred contacts, not, you know, not a big list there.
OK, but you're also going to get the CRM
with the sales automation phase because audience lead scoring,
integration's estimates, marketing, dynamic content, custom user permissions
of twenty five users and professionals, one hundred twenty nine dollars a month
for five of your contacts or two seventy nine months or ten thousand.
And then they add in all these things here.
OK then enterprize which a lot of these here are supported on the basic plan
of HighLevel which I'll talk about in a second.
These are, these features are not
not what I would consider enterprise features.
I think they're pretty basic.
So you have to pay four hundred dollars a month.
If you have ten thousand contacts, if you have five hundred contacts or not,
you're not going to sign up for enterprise.
That's not happening.
So four hundred bucks a month and that's what you get.
OK, now for HighLevel
you basically out of the box.
You get everything,
you get the workflow builder campaign builder to ask us to email
pipeline landing page builder, website builder integration's, which we see that.
And I'll get to this in a second.
You don't actually get till you pay more money here for the plus plan.
OK,
all this stuff here
and then in the freelancer plan, you get a white label on it so you can
create your own white label platform and you get to access the API, open API,
Zapier and phone support, which you don't actually get until enterprise.
And then if you're on the ABC plan,
you get all this stuff and I'm and talk about this in a second,
but this is a lot more bang for your buck here.
And actually, if you sign up for annually,
if you pay 10 months, you get two months free, which is really cool.
All right, so this is just a close up view of everything I was talking about before
with the futures, and then this is the HighLevel close up view.
And again, if you pay for the yearly plan,
you actually get quite a sizable discount on this.
It comes out to be 414 or I think to forty eight a month,
but basically by 10 months, get two months for you.
All right,
but then I took it a step further, I know that's a lot of information,
so I created this chart to show you what you get.
OK, so here you can see with JC light.
ActiveCampaign light.
Outside of these features.
OK, so I basically didn't even include the basic basic features here because
the chart would be humongous, but you don't get any of the stuff
with ActiveCampaign light, OK, with ActiveCampaign plus you get the CRM
these because maintenance and integration is in essence working.
That's it.
You don't get any of this stuff.
You don't get attribution.
You don't get custom mail server,
custom domains, phone support, unlimited users, unlimited contacts.
OK, now with the pro plan, they add on attribution,
which is boilerplate out of the box with HighLevel.
Any plans with Enterprise? You get everything,
but you still have to pay for that pesky little number of contacts.
OK, but with HighLevel you get everything included, plus unlimited contacts.
You could have a million contacts. And guess what?
It doesn't cost you more money.
That's kind of a no brainer, especially if you have a big list.
I can tell you right now,
if your list size is over five thousand users or maybe even twenty five hundred
users, you are overpaying for ActiveCampaign.
OK, I'm going to show you why.
Well, this is what you don't get
with ActiveCampaign, Clickfunnels, websites, membership's calendar system,
booking system pipelines, a chat widget and API conversational.
But you don't get SACE built into the platform.
So if you want to if you're interested in packaging up HighLevel to be your own
personal white labeled SACE and then turning around and charging money
for that SACE platform, you can't do that with ActiveCampaign obviously.
But in HighLevel, DNS million, OK, so that's kind of cool.
Now, the API,
this should just be for the pro the pro plan.
Yes.
You basically get everything on any plan here.
All right.
Which is kind of crazy,
and like I said, I do have white label on here, I don't have API access on here.
You get phone and child support with any play on HighLevel as well.
Now, let's talk a little bit about
pricing, OK, so ActiveCampaign, you have to sign up for a full year.
So I went ahead on this and just included the yearly pricing here.
OK, so four or five hundred contacts, which I think a lot of people have more
than five hundred, you're going to pay one hundred dollars a year for life.
And again, that's just for the super basic functions, OK, which is a decent value.
If you have a tiny list and you're looking to save money.
So give it three Dragonslayer.
If you have five hundred contacts
on ActiveCampaign plus it's five hundred eighty eight a year on Pro, it's 15, 40,
eight a year and on enterprises twenty seven.
Forty eight per year
just for five hundred contacts. That is insane.
OK, or you can just sign up for HighLevel
and get unlimited contacts, unlimited users, unlimited phone support
plus all the other stuff we talked about for twenty nine.
Seventy six for per year.
OK, now let's look at twenty five hundred contacts.
The light version is five hundred
and forty dollars a year plus is eleven eighty eight.
OK and then pro is fifteen, forty eight of your enterprize.
Twenty seven for eighty year again just
for twenty five hundred contacts again with HighLevel unlimited everything.
Twenty nine. Seventy six a year.
And then for ten thousand contacts, you're going to fork over between fifteen
hundred to forty seven, eighty eight, almost five thousand dollars per year,
just for ten thousand contacts, I know people that have twenty thousand
fifty thousand one hundred thousand contacts on their list.
I'm going to get to that in a second.
But it's it's an exponential graph.
OK, I actually ActiveCampaign doesn't even publish their rates above ten thousand.
You have to call for pricing, OK?
That's how expensive it is.
And then with HighLevel JC Perreault you can get everything here plus API.
So you get API is included seismo like I
talked about, you can even rebill the estimates
and phone charges to your clients and it's forty nine, sixty year again,
unlimited contacts, users and phone support included in that plan.
And then I went ahead and created this monthly cost breakdown chart for you.
And I know it's a little confusing and I basically pulled everything into Excel.
And you can see here that the blue lines and gray are
ActiveCampaign and you can see that the bigger your list is,
the more money you're going to fork over to ActiveCampaign.
And you can see here that it starts going exponential really, really quick.
Right. For a small list.
It's it stays pretty constant, but then, boom, it shoots way up.
And again, they don't publish their rates past a certain point.
With HighLevel, you are going to know what
your bill is and you're going to pay the same thing every single month.
It doesn't matter.
I could have created this graph and push it out to a million.
Just what it would be a straight line.
How cool is that?
So you can kind of see.
How many people on your list that you would need to break even?
Now that doesn't even include all
the other things you're probably already paying for if you've ActiveCampaign.
My guess is you're probably paying
for type form and Clickfunnels, maybe Khadra or some kind of membership site.
And you could be paying for pipe drive or another serum.
HighLevel includes all those things.
Again, I'm going to go back here and just
calculate the cost of everything you're paying for right now
and then calculate the cost of HighLevel and I bet money literally,
that you're going to save money switching to HighLevel.
I know I did.
I saved over five hundred dollars a month by switching to HighLevel.
And now it's even more because
of the workflow and the ActiveCampaign replacement, which is super, super cool.
Now, I'm going to give you a little sneak
peek of the behind the scenes workflows in HighLevel.
And this is a new feature that just came out.
You can see here that I could create a new workflow here
and I can actually import from an existing campaign so I don't have to
redo everything from scratch.
I have a ton of different campaigns,
but I'm going to go ahead and import everything from my HighLevel affiliate
bonus campaign because I want to see what that looks like.
OK.
So we're going to import that.
And it's going to give you these little disclaimers here, but you've got to
redo your own statements and the value is not going to be in there.
And then also.
The next campaign will be part
of the workflow, so you need to import the other campaign and then add add
to workflow at the end, but that's basic stuff here.
You can see that it imported all of the emails.
Here is email one.
So when someone signs up for HighLevel
using my link, I send them an email and I give them a snapshot.
I give them access to my course and my exclusive online community.
So.
What I can do here is build an advanced workflow like you can
in ActiveCampaign if, let's say they don't open this email, right.
So now I can go over here and I can add all these actions.
So let's say if.
If.
I can sort by all this stuff, guys, this is so cool, I can do different custom
values I can to date and time I can if they replied yes or no.
Right.
If the intent is or is not positive or negative.
And then here's a trigger.
So I can set up triggers here and I can set up multiple.
Which is really, really cool.
You can even add triggers inside of here,
so let's say that if the contact does not open the email,
that I want to send them the email again because I know they didn't open it right.
So I'm going to click on Add
a New Trigger, and then here I'm going to click email event.
Event opens.
And workflow, and this is my workflow.
OK, and then here.
I'm going to say if.
Trigger is not.
OK, so I had to save it, I had to go up here and click save
to get the trigger to show up, so I'm going to try it again.
Let's see if.
The trigger is not this.
And then I can add multiple triggers here and I'm going to go ahead and click save,
and then you can see now we're starting to look like
ActiveCampaign here, because if they don't open the email, guess what?
I can take this email and I can.
Simit again.
So I'll have to do.
I can see it as a template or I can just copy it.
Some.
Just go ahead and copy paste.
And then.
A.
OK, so if I there's context waiting in the previous study was move
the contraction in the workflow or do you remove them for over?
So.
I think it did that because I actually had
people in that campaign right now, I'm not going to save it, though.
But here is what's going to happen, so I forgot to put a weight.
Stop here.
So I'm going to add the weight back on.
You can see when I changed it, it clear that out, right?
This is one day and that says one day so.
Now, I imagine so I'm going to send email one.
And if they opened it, I'm in the email, too, I didn't open it.
I'm going to send an email one again and you can continue down this path.
I'm going to do a more advance video for my students in their little economy,
which you can check out using the link below.
