Managed Email Marketing Services for Newsletters Campaigns Automations

We cover the whole job, so none of it lands back on your desk. Planning the month, writing the copy, building the email, segmenting the list and sending it are all ours. So is deliverability, which means we publish your authentication records, suppress bounces and keep watch on what your reputation is doing. There is no platform login for anyone on your side to learn. You approve a draft, we take it from there, and one plain report arrives each month.

Email marketing someone else runs

What makes us different from a platform subscription

Most email programs stall for unglamorous reasons. Nobody had time to write this month's send. The template broke on mobile. A DKIM record quietly failed when the CRM changed. The list has not been cleaned in two years. None of that gets solved by buying better software. It gets solved when one party owns it, so we do. You bring the offer; the writing, the building, the sending and the reputation underneath it are ours.

In practice that means a send goes out on a schedule you can plan around. Copy is written for your audience and put in front of you before it ships. Templates are built to survive Outlook, which is where most of them break. Lists are cleaned so you stop paying to mail addresses that stopped existing years ago. Authentication is rechecked after every change to your stack. Results come back as opens, clicks and replies, with a plain reading of what they mean.

Why teams stop running it themselves

Handing it over versus doing it in house

Buying a sending platform takes ten minutes. Running a programme month after month is the part that costs you. Somebody has to plan it, write it, build it, test it, clean the list, and stay on top of what the mailbox providers make of it. That list is where in house programmes usually come apart, so here is the honest comparison.

The send actually happens

The newsletter is the first thing dropped when a busy week arrives, and then somehow three months have gone by. A committed calendar takes that decision away, and the send goes out regardless of what kind of fortnight your team just had.

Someone is accountable for results

Email that sits as one line on an overloaded list is rarely something anyone is measured on. That changes when it is a retainer. Reporting arrives monthly with a stated intention for the next send, and we are the ones who have to answer for it.

Writing is not a side task

Copy and subject lines get drafted, reviewed, and checked against your own past performance well before anything is scheduled. Compare that with the in house version written in the last hour before it sends, where the open rate usually tells the story.

Problems get caught early

How does a business running its own email usually learn it has landed on a blocklist? A customer mentions they never got something. We see the bounce rate move instead, and the work starts before your next campaign rather than after the damage.

The list stays healthy

Lists decay whether or not anybody tends them, and steadily mailing dead addresses is what turns a trusted domain into a filtered one. Cleaning runs on a schedule rather than waiting for somebody to finally get around to it.

It survives someone leaving

In house programmes tend to leave when the person running them does, taking any record of how the thing was set up along with them. Documentation lives on our side, so a resignation on yours does not stop the sends.

Who this actually fits

Where this pays for itself fastest

This works best when email could clearly earn money for you but nobody internally has the hours to run it properly. If your list has gone quiet, your sends have become irregular, or you have subscribers you have never actually mailed, that is the point where handing it over pays for itself.

How we work with you

How this actually runs, month to month

The first few weeks are mostly us working in the background. Your sending domain gets authenticated and warmed, your list imported and cleaned, your templates built, and none of it needs anything from you while it happens. After that it settles into a monthly rhythm where your only job is approving a draft.

1

Your sending domain goes up, then gets warmed

Your marketing mail gets its own authenticated sending domain, kept well away from the mailbox you run the business from, so a campaign problem cannot follow you into it. SPF, DKIM and DMARC go up. Then the volume rises gradually, because mailbox providers decide whether to trust a domain long before your first real campaign arrives. Going faster here would buy you nothing.

2

The list comes across and the templates get built

Your existing contacts come across and get screened, and anything likely to bounce or complain comes out before it can cost you. Old lists get an honest verdict from us, usually with a re-engagement send before anything else goes out. Meanwhile your templates get built to match your site, which is why every campaign after this one is a fill and send instead of a rebuild.

3

Then it becomes a monthly rhythm

A short plan reaches you at the start of the month. Drafts follow for approval, and the sends leave on the dates you agreed. Segmentation, testing and the technical side underneath are ours, and bounces and complaints get watched as they arrive. At the end of the month a plain report says what happened and what we intend to change next. Your only recurring task is reading and replying.

Everything we handle

Everything included, at both tiers

Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Monthly campaign calendar

Before anything gets built you see the month laid out. What goes into it comes from your offers, where you are in your season, and which of last month's emails your list actually opened.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Audience segments built for you

Sending everything to everyone is how a list learns to ignore you. Yours gets split by behaviour and by what people have bought, so each campaign reaches the part of the list it was written for.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Subject lines written and tested

Every campaign arrives with more than one subject line to pick from. They are written against your own open rate history, not against general advice about what tends to perform.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Templates built to your brand

Your templates get built once, matched to your site, and then reused. That is why nothing going out under your name looks like it came from a stock layout.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Copy written for every send

Subject line, body and call to action are all written for you, then sent over as a draft you can change however you like before anything leaves.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Mobile and dark mode checked

A layout that collapses on a phone usually gets discovered by a subscriber, which is far too late. Every email goes through a preview on phone and desktop, light mode and dark, before it is scheduled.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Sending domain configured

Marketing mail gets its own sending domain, kept well apart from the address you run the business from. If a campaign ever causes trouble, it cannot follow you into your working inbox.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

SPF, DKIM and DMARC published

Mailbox providers have no reason to trust mail from a domain that cannot prove it sent it. Those three records go up on yours, and they get rechecked any time your DNS changes.

Your sending reputation stays yours

Your mail is isolated and carries a reputation record of its own, so a bad month for somebody else on our books does not slow your delivery or cost you subscribers.

Bounces and complaints suppressed

Mailing the same dead address month after month is one of the quickest ways to get a domain flagged. Hard bounces and spam complaints drop off your list as they register, without anyone needing to remember to do it.

List hygiene on a schedule

Addresses go quiet or start bouncing whether or not anybody is watching. Yours get reviewed on a set schedule, and the dead weight comes out before it starts costing you sender reputation.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Blocklist monitoring

Your sending domain and IP are checked against the major blocklists on an ongoing basis. Land on one and the work to get you off it starts before your next campaign, rather than after somebody notices the replies stopped.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Welcome sequence built and maintained

New subscribers get an automated introduction to your business. It is built once, then looked after, and it carries on working in the background whether or not anyone is thinking about it.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Automations watched and repaired

Rename a product or change a form and a sequence can stop firing without announcing it. Yours are monitored, so the repair happens on our side instead of waiting for you to spot the silence.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Monthly performance report

One report a month, written in plain language. It covers what went out, how it performed, which segments responded, and what we intend to do differently on the next send.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Click reporting down to the link

An overall click rate tells you very little on its own. You get to see which individual links people pressed, which is usually the clearest read available on what your list actually wants from you.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Unsubscribes handled correctly

Every email carries a working one click unsubscribe, and a removal takes effect across every future send straight away. It is a legal requirement, and it gets treated as one rather than as a setting somebody might get round to.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

One contact for anything email related

There is no ticket queue to file into. A campaign looks wrong, or a subscriber has complained, and you reply on the same thread you always use, to the same person.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Four campaigns every month

Twice the send volume of the standard plan. That is generally the point where email stops producing the occasional spike and starts producing something you can forecast.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

A/B testing on every campaign

Your audience gets split so two subject lines, or two versions of the content, can run against each other. Whatever wins carries forward into the next send, so each campaign starts from something you already know.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Dedicated warmed sending IP

Your mail leaves on an IP address nobody else uses, brought up to volume gradually so mailbox providers have time to learn to trust it. Nobody else's sending habits are attached to your delivery any more.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Inbox placement testing

Before a campaign goes out to the full list it goes to seed accounts across the major providers first. That is how we know whether it is reaching the inbox or the spam folder, instead of guessing from the open rate afterwards.
Icon representing a feature included in this managed service.Cascadia Web Services logo

Multi step automation flows

Up to five automated sequences can run at once, which is enough for a welcome series, a post purchase follow up and a win back to all be live together.

Quarterly strategy call

Once a quarter there is a call with the numbers in front of both of us. We go through what worked, and we agree what the next three months of email is meant to achieve.

Questions we get asked

Frequently asked questions
What does fully managed email marketing actually include?
Planning the month, writing the copy, building the email, segmenting the list, sending it and watching where it lands are all on our side. The one thing on yours is approving the draft before it goes out. Nothing here asks you to learn software or log into a dashboard, and the numbers reach you in the monthly report rather than sitting somewhere you have to go and find them.
Do I need to do anything at all?
Not much, and what there is takes minutes. We need to know what you have on that month, whether that is an offer or simply news worth telling people, and we need somebody to sign off the draft. A short email or a fifteen minute call generally covers both. Setup, build, send, and chasing anything that bounces or gets flagged along the way all sit with us.
Who owns my subscriber list?
You do. Ask for a full export whenever you want one and it comes back in a standard format, with no notice period and no fee attached, because your contacts are not something we hold inside a platform you cannot reach. Leaving is the same story: the list goes with you, and so do the templates and the reporting history.
Will my emails share a sending reputation with your other clients?
They will not. Your sending is isolated behind your own authenticated domain, with a reputation record belonging to it alone, so another client mailing a bad list has no effect on your delivery and their bounces never touch your subscribers. Agencies that simply resell one shared platform to everybody cannot offer that, and it tends to be the thing they are quietest about.
How many campaigns do I get each month?
Two on the standard plan and four on Growth, where a campaign means one email built and sent either to a segment or to your whole list. Automated sequences sit on top of that count rather than eating into it. Busy month and you need one more than the plan allows? We would rather add the send than push you up a tier for it.
What happens if my list grows past the plan limit?
Sending carries on as normal and the overage is billed at two dollars per thousand emails above your allowance. You will hear about it from us before it turns into a monthly habit, and if the higher volume looks like it is here to stay we will point you at whichever plan works out cheaper. Finding that out from an invoice is not how this should go.
Do you write the copy, or do I?
We write it, and it is included at both tiers. What we need from you is the offer, the date, and anything you know you want said; the subject line, the body and the call to action come from us. The draft then goes to you and nothing in it is fixed. Some clients prefer to supply their own copy, and that works perfectly well too.
How do you handle deliverability?
SPF, DKIM and DMARC get published on your sending domain and then watched, bounces and complaints are suppressed as they arrive, and the list is cleaned on a schedule instead of when somebody remembers. Growth adds a dedicated sending IP, warmed properly rather than simply switched on, plus inbox placement testing. That last one is why we usually know where your mail is landing before you think to ask.
Can you work with the list I already have?
Usually, yes. It comes across, gets checked for addresses likely to bounce or complain, and anything that puts your domain at risk comes out before a campaign touches it. Where a list is old, or was bought rather than built, you will be told that plainly and we will want a re-engagement send to go first. A domain that was perfectly healthy can be damaged faster by one mailing to a stale list than by almost anything else.
What platform do you use?
Ours, rather than a reseller account on somebody else's. Running our own managed stack is what makes the rest of this possible: isolating your reputation, keeping your list portable, and billing on emails sent instead of contacts stored. What you notice in practice is that your bill stops jumping every time the list crosses a round number.
Do you build automations as well as one off campaigns?
Yes, and they are part of the plan rather than a separate project. Standard covers one automated sequence, nearly always a welcome series for new subscribers, built and then kept working. Growth takes that to five, which leaves room for a post purchase follow up or a win back alongside it. All of them are monitored, because a change upstream can break a flow without leaving any visible sign that it has.
What reporting do I get?
One report a month: opens, clicks by link, unsubscribes, bounces, how each segment behaved, and what we plan to change next, all in plain language. Growth adds a quarterly call so it can be talked through properly. Nobody is going to hand you a wall of raw metrics and leave you to work out what it means.
Is there a contract or a setup fee?
Neither. Billing runs monthly and thirty days notice ends it, which suits us fine; keeping an account because the email is earning its place is worth more than keeping one because somebody signed a term. Your first month also covers the template build and the full deliverability setup at no extra charge.
Do I need a WordPress site to use this?
No, and it does not much matter what your site runs on. This sits independently of your website, so WordPress, Shopify, Squarespace and custom builds are all fine. There is a small convenience if we already host your WordPress site, because signup forms and purchase data are easier to wire up, but it has never been a requirement.
How quickly can we send the first campaign?
Two to three weeks is typical. Most of the first week goes on authenticating your domain and warming its reputation, and that is not a stage worth rushing to save a few days. The template build and the list import run alongside it. Week three is when the first campaign normally goes out, and the monthly rhythm starts from there.
