How to decide
Farmzz wins if…
You have more than a small handful of contacts.
You want to avoid BCC mistakes, duplicates and reply-all issues.
You need to manage unsubscribes and preferences.
You want to add SMS to email.
You want to know what was sent and to whom.
Gmail BCC wins if…
You rarely send to more than a few dozen people.
You do not need SMS or segmentation.
You only want to write a one-off personal message.
You are willing to manage consent manually.
Pricing reality
Gmail is included in many Google accounts, but it is not built as a marketing system for a farm customer list. Farmzz adds list management, preferences, SMS, templates and tracking in a flat plan.
Gmail sending limits vary by Google account type and can change.
Frequently asked questions
Why not keep using BCC?
Because BCC gets fragile as the list grows: mistakes, sending limits, no preferences, little tracking and no SMS.
Can I import my Gmail contacts?
Yes. Export contacts as CSV, then import them into Farmzz.
Does Farmzz replace my Gmail inbox?
No. Keep Gmail for one-to-one conversations; use Farmzz for list announcements.
Is it useful if I only send email?
Yes, but value rises most when you combine email, SMS, segmentation and QR codes.
