What moves the price
- Specialist's experience — an email marketing specialist with a strong record of campaign results usually charges a higher monthly fee.
- Complexity of your campaign — segmented lists and tailored content for each audience take more planning than a simple newsletter.
- Volume of emails being sent — more email campaigns each month means more writing, design and testing for the specialist.
- Specific services required — paying for strategy, content creation, design and reporting together costs more than a single part of the email work.
- Need for custom design — a bespoke email template takes longer to build and test than adapting a ready-made one.
- Automation setups — welcome series and abandoned basket emails take time to plan, build and test before they run on their own.

How to pay less
- Using a ready-made email template from your sending platform instead of a custom design can lower the specialist's setup cost.
- Removing old or duplicate contacts from your email list before you hand it over can save the specialist list management time.
- Writing the product details and offers yourself and letting the specialist edit them can cost less than full content creation.
- Starting with a smaller monthly scope, such as a regular newsletter only, costs less than a full email marketing retainer.
