Questions about price
- Is there a contract?
No minimum term. The system runs month to month and stops at the end of any month you choose.
- Is there a setup fee?
No. Setting up your sending and building the list is the first week of the first month.
- What else do we pay for?
Your own tools: the sending tool, the data or enrichment account, and the domains and inboxes you send from. You pay those vendors directly, so the system and everything in it stays yours if you stop.
- How soon does anything go out?
Sending is set up in the first week. The first emails go out in week two, once you have approved them.
- How does this compare with other agencies?
Published retainers for account-based programs start around $3,000 a month for a pilot, and cold email outreach on its own runs from about $2,000 to $8,000 a month. The chart above names the sources for the first; Cleverly publishes the second.
- Can we start with something free?
Yes. The domain checker reads your SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MX and blocklist records in a few seconds, and the mail-merge preview reads every message before it sends.
