Is Free Migration Right for You?
Free migration works when the relationship makes sense for both of us. This is what I look for:
- 25,000+ email contacts on your current platform
- Monthly email marketing spend of $200+
- Ready to upgrade your automation and segmentation
- Committed to fixing deliverability for the long run
Why Businesses Switch to ActiveCampaign
Most migrations I run come from the same six frustrations. Sound familiar?
Better automation
A visual builder you can actually read, instead of three disconnected "workflows" and a spreadsheet to track what triggers what.
Superior deliverability
Dedicated sending infrastructure and smarter reputation handling. Your emails reach inboxes instead of Promotions or Spam.
Professional email design
A mature drag-and-drop editor, conditional content blocks, and dynamic personalization that's survived a decade of refinement.
Built-in CRM & pipelines
Sales pipelines, deal tracking, and contact scoring included — not bolted on via an extra subscription to a different tool.
Cost-effective scaling
Contact-based pricing that stays sane as you grow. Lists that would cost $1,500/mo on Klaviyo often cost a third on AC.
Advanced segmentation
Rolling date segments, behavioral triggers, site tracking, and conditional sends. Enough depth to keep up with any retention strategy.
ActiveCampaign vs. Your Current Platform
Where ActiveCampaign usually wins — and why.
| ActiveCampaign | Mailchimp | Klaviyo | ConvertKit | HubSpot Free | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Automation depth | Advanced visual builder | Limited workflows | Ecom-centric | Basic sequences | Locked behind paid tier |
| Pricing at scale | Contact-based, predictable | Expensive above 100K | Pricey without ecom payoff | Limited plan bands | Quick jump to paid |
| Deliverability | Dedicated infrastructure | Shared, inconsistent | Strong for ecom, not general | Shared, adequate | Shared, adequate |
| Learning curve | Intuitive visual flows | Simple but shallow | Steep, ecom-specific | Simple but limited | Part of broader HubSpot |
| CRM & pipelines | Built-in | Basic contacts | Ecom objects only | None | Full CRM (paid tiers) |
| Support quality | Responsive, knowledgeable | Limited on lower plans | Tier-based access | Community-heavy | Chatbot-first |

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does migration take?
Typically 2–4 weeks end-to-end, depending on the complexity of your current setup. Simple Mailchimp-to-ActiveCampaign moves with straightforward automations run closer to 2. Complex Klaviyo setups with ecommerce integrations and 30+ flows run closer to 4. I'll give you a specific timeline during the assessment call.
Will I lose email history, contacts, or tags?
No. Complete data preservation is the baseline, not an upsell. Contacts, tags, custom fields, subscribe dates, source attribution — all moved with full fidelity. Engagement history transfers where the source platform exposes it. If a field can't map cleanly, I'll show you the options before we proceed.
What happens to my automations?
Rebuilt, not copied. One of the reasons migrations are worth doing is that your current automations were almost certainly shaped by the platform's limitations. In ActiveCampaign I rebuild them as they should be, with goal-based exits, human-paced wait steps, and a proper tag taxonomy. You get a better program out the other side, not just a transplanted one.
Is it really free?
Yes, for qualified businesses (25K+ contacts, $200+/mo email spend, a real commitment to upgrading). The cost is covered by my ActiveCampaign affiliate relationship — when you sign up for AC through me, I earn a referral fee, and the migration work is my investment in the relationship. No contingent retainer, no strings on the migration itself.
What if I need ongoing help after the migration?
Available as a separate service. Most migration clients want someone to run their program after the move — I offer month-to-month management in the $3–15K range depending on scope. It's a natural continuation, not a requirement. If you just want the migration and then to run it yourself with a trained team, that's a clean handoff and a great outcome too.
