The same level of deliverability you get with a outlook inbox, that you might spend $7 a month on, is the same level of deliverability you'll get with us.

Yes. The code is designed to spin up emails automatically.

If you were to use outlook or gsuite yourself, it would cost you $7 per inbox. You would also have to buy lots more domains (many cold-emailers suggest 1 domain for every 2 email inboxes!).

So for 100 inboxes, it will cost you $700 (this is not even including the cost for all the domains).

With our solution, you save nearly 99%, and you do 10X less work (no dmarc/dkim/spf, no buying and setting up inboxes manually, etc etc).

With our solution, you can scale to 100s of thousands of emails a day with very minimal cost ($0.045 per inbox)

We wouldn't use outlook if we had problems with deliverability.

We have found that short cold email copy hits the inbox at a very high rate. And if your domain ever gets burned (if you're sending 2000 emails a day from a domain), you can just run the switch domain module in our software, which automatically replaces the domain for you. Voila. New, fresh domain. Ready to go again.

But the amazing this about this system is you can play with your sending strategy. A unique sending strategy we use right now, mainly for our small but valuable lead lists, is what i call the 'gray man' strategy. We send 1 outbound email, 49 warmup emails a day. So 2% of our total volume is outbound. So we send 100 emails per domain, per tenant. We then scale horizontally across tenants and domains, rather than vertically within a tenant and domain. It's essentially impossible for ESPs to block your domain with this type of cold email because only 2% of your email volume is cold email. So if 2% of people on your outbound emails report you as spam, that's literally 0.004% of your total email volume that reports you as spam. It's negligible. And ESPs will never block your domain. And even if the ESPs use AI to detect cold email, the cold email detected coming from your domain as a percentage of entire email volume is so tiny, that they never block you.

You can use Instantly's Unibox or Smartlead's Master Inbox to see all of your emails in one window.

A couple of reasons:

1) most resellers will buy cheap inboxes from Asia. This means when you send emails, you will send from Asian IPs. It isn't normal for Asian inboxes to send to US or European inboxes, and the ESPs know this. So when you do it, you get lower deliverability.

2) Not many resellers are actually cheaper than us on a inbox per inbox basis. There maybe some Asian resellers who might go lower for bulk orders, but these inboxes are terrible because Asian IPs have the lowest reputation (lots of cold-email to the US and Europe comes from Asian IPs)


3) Resellers put you on an admin panel with lots of other customers (as many as they can). This means the quality of outreach of the other customers you are sharing the admin panel with, will affect your deliverability. If one customer on the panel sends terrible cold emails to uncleaned lists, this will affect the rest of the customers on that panel (including you!).  

No. Private infrastructure is when you lease/rent IPs or pay for virtual private servers, and send emails from inboxes you create on those IPs.

Private infrastructure have terrible deliverability for a number of reasons which I won't go into. If they provided good deliverability we would use private infrastructure instead.

No, how many emails a day does a normal, relatively unknown company with say 50-100 employees send per day? Thousands.. Do they get blocked? No.

We also have some 'secret sauce' on the backend which allows us to emulate the above scenario, which we'll also give you.

You most likely bought from a reseller that either A) crammed you onto one admin panel or 'tenant' with 100s of other customers, and the email provider downgraded your tenant/admin panels deliverability because of mass spam coming from it, or B) you bought from an Asian reseller, and got Asian account, which naturally have worse deliverability to US and European emails.

With scalesends, you get your own dedicated admin panel or 'tenant'. No one else is on that but you. And only ONE of your domains is on there (no other reseller goes to these steps.. we do. It cuts our profit margin down A LOT, but it's worth it). We also put you exclusively on US and European tenants. So you will always be assigned a high deliverability inbox.

Outlook works fine for us - we get 10/10 inbox placement scores. With shorter copy, regular domain rotation, and best practices we'll teach you.

Main factors include our tech on the back end, the use of only 1 domain per tenant, and the guideline we give you to cold-email effectively - mainly copy, domain rotation, potential sending strategies, etc)
