Constant Contact has been helping small businesses since 1995. We respect that. But their approach is still "here's a tool, you figure it out." Our approach is "we'll handle it."
Log in. See the dashboard. Click "Create Campaign."
Choose a template. Customize the colors. Add your logo.
Stare at the blank content area. What do I even say?
Phone rings. Customer needs something. Close the laptop.
Next month: $12-45 charged. Zero emails sent.
The tool isn't the problem. Time is the problem.

"Here's a powerful email marketing tool. Learn to use it, create campaigns, write content, and send emails to grow your business."
"Valentine's Day is in 2 weeks. Here's an email and text we wrote. Want to send them?"
Same goal. Completely different amount of work.
Constant Contact has been helping small businesses do email for nearly 30 years. They've helped millions of businesses connect with customers.
But they're still built on the assumption that you have time to create campaigns. That you know what to say. That you remember to log in.
We're built on the assumption that you don't have any of that — and you shouldn't need it.
Outcome-based pricing tied to what your campaigns actually earn. No monthly fees. No contracts.
Pay whichever is higher: the minimum or 5% of tracked revenue — never more than the max.
First campaign free. No monthly fees.
Requires Square, Clover, Shopify, or Mindbody connection. Shopify & Mindbody coming soon.
First campaign free. We handle the thinking so you don't have to.
