021 - When a tech fail costs you much. My epic fail with Mailchimp

In 2016, I was starting out as VA and I had just created a lead magnet. I was excited, but I didn't know that I was going towards a quite painful tech fail with Mailchimp.

In this episode, I'm sharing my own experience with Mailchimp and how I overcame the problems this email marketing platform brings to the table.
