3 Best Bio Links: My Review

I am doing a comparison of these 3 platforms, Beacons.ai, Stan.store and Snipfeed as they seem the most similar in that you can sell products on them but also have the option of automated email sequences on them. Having automated email sequences built in to the app give the creator the option of managing their business all within one app instead of say integrating Zapier with another mailing server. You may have heard of Stan.store but these 2 are great Stan.store alternatives if you are looking for something that can be cheaper when starting out. Read below to find out more about each of them and what they have to offer.

Conclusion on pricing

You can save money getting the yearly plans. Above is for the monthly plans.

Design Options

Beacons.ai

On the free plan and above you can fully edit your bio to your taste. There are many templates to choose from as within the dropdown they also have other themed templates.

Something to note is when displaying products in your store there doesn’t seem to be the option to display the subtitle only the title. If a product if free it will show $0.00 (Free).

There are multiply ways to display your products, and you can create a new block where those products can be displayed a different way as like most bio links it’s set out in blocks.

Stan.store

There are a choice of 10 templates.

With these templates you have the option to choose a particular color for the theme.

Stan.store has the option to include the subtitle on a product tile. Button title can have any text you want.

From what I can see you only have the option of the fonts that are in the pre templates. It does seem more limited than the other two for editing to your preferred style but the layout is very clear and professional looking.

Snipfeed

There are many templates to choose from for Snipfeed. Within the dropdown there are other themed templates.

You can edit button styles, fonts etc. There are also the option of some premium templates.

Snipfeed product tiles don’t have buttons, the whole tile is clickable. You can display a title, subtitle and the price will show, if the product is free it will show “FREE”.

Free/lowest options for email marketing

Beacons.ai

Beacons.ai on the free plan, allows users to capture email leads from free or paid products. You also add extra fields that you want to capture.

They have the option to group audiences. You can do broadcasts. You can do as many automations emails as you like. With each automation you have the option to do a sequence of 5 emails. There is no option to upgrade.

You can integrate the ‘Subscription” field with Zapier but not when capturing leads from product sales.

If you are looking to do more complicated email marketing then Beacons.ai is more limited than the other 2 platforms but great if starting out. You can export your contacts at a later time if you choose.

Beacons.ai is also set up that if you use gmail with change the gmail address to an email that is less likely to get bounced when being sent. You can also add in your own logo so when your emails come through they show your logo in the customers inbox.

Remember to include an address at the bottom of your emails otherwise it can be classed as spam and is against anti-spam laws not to include one.

Stan.store.

On the $29 plan you can integrate your store with Zapier which then can integrate with many other email marketing platforms. From what I can tell on this plan the customer will get the automated email from Stan.store after they make a purchase.

On the $99 plan you have the option to include full email marketing with funnels, automations etc.

Snipfeed

With the free and $9 plan, snipfeed will send automated emails to the customers of their purchases.

On the $29 plan you have the option to do an automated email after any product purchase or 1 on 1 is booked, they have many already made flows you can use. You can integrate with Zapier to then connect to any email marketing platform you want.

On the $55 plan you can do as many automation emails and email flows as you want all within the app. Note the screenshot below says $59 but on the blog it says $55 so you’ll have to check when you decide to upgrade.

Extra features

Beacons.ai has other features like tracking your posting, business tools. There is also a whole section for AI branch outreach.

Stan.store I’ve got emails saying you can reach out to get help from the company on how to start making money online.

You can also ask stanley to help with anything, like coming up with an idea for a video script on a certain topic.

Snipfeed has an AI desk which can help with many things from content creation, writing emails. Coming up with ideas for products. Bio link description. Finding brands to do deals with. It’s like chatgpt has been integrate with the platform with suggestions of where to start for each area.
