MarketBetter vs Sendspark: End-to-End Acquisition vs Video-Only
marketbetter isn't "another tool." It's an acquisition engine that handles the unglamorous work—research, enrichment, sequencing, alerts, CRM hygiene—and the glamorous work—personalized video and tight follow-ups. The result: leads move from anonymous to meeting booked with far fewer moving parts.
Sendspark is a strong, video-email specialist. Great for recording and sending personalized clips. It does not attempt to run your end-to-end acquisition program. If you want pipeline orchestration, you'll still be stitching systems together around it.
