Campaigns
Heads up: attachments on cold email lower deliverability. Use sparingly.
Help & getting started
From zero to your first campaign in 5 steps
Work through these in order. It takes about 15 minutes, and you only do steps 1 and 2 once.
Connect your mailbox
In Settings, enter the email you send from and a Google app password. This is what actually sends your mail.
How do I get an app password? →Check your domain
Run Domain check on your sending domain. Green across the board means your mail is far more likely to reach the inbox.
Add your contacts
Upload a CSV in Contacts, or type them in by hand. Duplicates and invalid addresses are skipped automatically.
What should the CSV look like? →Write the email
In Campaigns, write your subject and body. Drop in merge tags like {{CompanyName}} to personalise each one.
Test, then send
Always Send test to yourself first. Happy with it? Hit send and we drip them out safely in batches.
Getting a Google app password
Google will not let an app use your normal password. You need a 16-character app password instead. You only do this once.
- Go to myaccount.google.com/security
- Turn on 2-Step Verification if it is not already on. App passwords do not exist without it.
- Back on that page, search for App passwords.
- Create one and name it Mailer.
- Google shows a 16-character code like
abcd efgh ijkl mnop. Copy it. - Paste it into Settings → App password, then press Test connection.
How your CSV should look
Three columns with a header row. Column order does not matter and extra columns are ignored.
| Name | Company Name | |
|---|---|---|
| Priya Sharma | Hotel Grand | priya@hotelgrand.com |
| James Lee | Courtyard Boston | jlee@courtyard.com |
| (blank is fine) | The Ridge Hotel | frontdesk@ridge.com |
- Email is the only required column. Rows without a valid email are skipped.
- A blank Name is fine. Use a greeting like "Hi there," when you do not have real names.
- Duplicate addresses are skipped, so re-uploading a bigger list is safe.
- Put one email per row. Several addresses in one cell go out as a single email and those recipients can see each other.
Merge tags
Type these anywhere in your subject or body and each recipient gets their own version.
{{FirstName}}First word of the namePriya{{Name}}Full namePriya Sharma{{CompanyName}}Company columnHotel Grand{{Email}}Their email addresspriya@hotelgrand.com{{FirstName}}.
Staying out of spam
Do this
- Send from a real person, like
priya@company.com - Keep it short, plain and personal
- Include a physical address and an opt-out
- Start slow, 20 to 40 a day, and build up
- Personalise the first line for each recipient
Avoid this
- Role addresses like
info@ornoreply@ - Heavy HTML templates, big images and lots of links
- Long lists of services in bold, it reads as spam
- Attachments on a first cold email
- Blasting hundreds on day one from a new domain
How credits work
- 1 credit = 1 email sent. Test sends count too.
- You start with 100 free credits once your account is approved.
- Paid plans top your balance up automatically every month.
- At 0 credits sending pauses and resumes once you top up. Nothing is lost.
- Cancelling stops future renewals. Credits you already have stay on your account.
Something not working?
New accounts are reviewed before sending is enabled. You can set everything up meanwhile. Contact us if it takes more than a day.
Run Domain check first. Missing SPF, DKIM or DMARC is the usual cause. After that, look at your content and your sending address.
Open Report and read the error on the row. Authentication errors mean your app password needs replacing. Rejected addresses usually mean the mailbox does not exist.
That is deliberate. We space messages out and cap them per day to protect your sender reputation. You can raise the cap in Settings, but slower is safer.
Still stuck?
Premium and Ultra Premium get a reply within one business day. Need it sooner, or want us to set the whole thing up for you?
Domain check
Check whether your sending domain is set up to land in the inbox. We look at MX, SPF, DKIM and DMARC.
Billing
Credits are consumed one per email sent. Plans renew monthly and top your balance back up automatically. Cancel any time, credits you already have stay on your account.

Sending account
hello@, info@, support@, sales@
and noreply@ are filtered far more aggressively by spam systems, and the damage grows
with volume. Use something like firstname@yourcompany.com and put a real human name
in From name. People reply to people, not to inboxes.
Signature
HTML. Merge tags work here too. Appended to every email.
