Email Marketing Services
What we build and manage
The Offer
Most companies treat email as a broadcast channel — send a campaign, watch the open rate, send another campaign. That approach generates activity without building revenue. The companies generating significant email revenue are running automated sequences that respond to behaviour, segment by purchase history and engagement, and deliver the right message at the point in the customer relationship where it’s most likely to convert.
Flightdeck email engagements start with your current list, your current performance data, and your current automation setup. We identify where revenue is being left on the table — typically abandoned carts, lapsed customers, and subscribers who opted in but never converted. Even small decisions like when you send an email campaign have measurable impact on open rates and revenue.
From there we develop the full lifecycle programme: welcome sequence, browse and cart abandonment, post-purchase nurture, loyalty and repeat purchase, win-back, and broadcast calendar strategy. We handle strategy, copywriting, design, and technical setup across Klaviyo, HubSpot, Mailchimp, and other major platforms.
Where We Work
Sending broadcast emails but leaving abandoned cart, win-back, and post-purchase revenue untouched. The list is large enough to generate significant automated revenue with the right sequences in place.
Leads are entering the funnel but dropping off before they convert. Need a nurture program that maintains engagement and delivers the right content at each stage of a 30–90 day consideration cycle.
Growing the list through paid or organic acquisition but not converting subscribers into customers at the rates the acquisition cost justifies. Welcome and nurture sequences are the fix.
How It Works
List and Platform Audit
Full audit of list health, deliverability, segmentation logic, and current automation performance. Identify highest-revenue gaps and prioritize the sequences that close them first.
Sequence Build and Campaign Strategy
Build priority automations first. Develop campaign calendar, segmentation strategy, and A/B testing framework. Copywriting, design, and technical setup handled end to end.
Optimization and List Growth
Monthly performance reporting by sequence and segment. Ongoing A/B testing on subject lines, send times, and offers. List growth strategy aligned with the acquisition channels already running.
Common Questions
There's no minimum list size for starting an email program — but the ROI calculation changes depending on volume. A list of 500 engaged subscribers with the right automation often outperforms a 10,000-person list with no segmentation. For broadcast-focused programs, a minimum of 2,000–5,000 subscribers makes the economics of a managed retainer work. We'll be direct with you about where you are on that curve.
Klaviyo, HubSpot, Mailchimp, ActiveCampaign, and Iterable are our primary platforms. Klaviyo is our default recommendation for ecommerce — it has the best native Shopify integration and the most granular behavioral segmentation. HubSpot is better suited for B2B with CRM integration requirements. We work within your existing platform if you're already established on one.
Industry benchmarks put email at $42 returned for every $1 spent — the highest ROI of any marketing channel. For ecommerce brands with proper automation in place, email typically generates 25–35% of total revenue. For B2B companies, email is primarily a pipeline nurture tool — it accelerates close rates and shortens sales cycles rather than directly attributing closed revenue.
We handle copywriting as part of a full-service engagement. You'll provide brand context, product information, and approval on drafts. For companies with in-house writers, we offer strategy-only or technical-setup-only engagements where we build the architecture and your team fills the content.
Deliverability is the most underestimated variable in email performance. We audit domain authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), list hygiene, engagement segmentation, and sending cadence at the start of every engagement. Poor deliverability can reduce effective reach by 30–50% regardless of how good the content is. We fix it before we build anything on top of it.
