How do you handle email warmup when managing multiple client sub-accounts?
Curious how other agencies handle this, when you’re onboarding a new client and need to warm up their sending domain, how do you manage that alongside your other clients’ domains that might already be warming or sending campaigns? Do you stagger the start dates manually? Track it in a spreadsheet? Or has anyone found a way to keep an eye on reputation/spam rate across all client domains without checking each sub-account one by one? Just trying to figure out if there’s a better system than what I’m currently doing, since it feels easy to lose track once you’re past 5-6 active clients.
[Feedback]Half my leads come in after hours and I'm losing them by morning
I run a small IT support business for local offices. Two of us, plus a couple of contractors. Something I only recently measured: a big chunk of my inbound inquiries land between 6pm and midnight, when people are catching up on their own admin and remember their computer problem. By the time I reply the next morning, a good number have gone quiet or already booked someone else. The lead was hottest at 9pm and I answered at 9am. I don't want to work evenings, and I can't afford a night receptionist. I've thought about an auto-reply that sets expectations, a simple booking link so people can grab a slot themselves, or some kind of after-hours answering setup. Not sure which actually converts versus which just feels like doing something. For anyone whose leads come in outside business hours: what did you put in place that genuinely stopped the overnight ones from leaking? Trying to fix the response gap without chaining myself to my phone at night.
Best AI email generator for a solo founder who doesn't know design?
I'm totally lost in this area and I want some direction please. Building everything solo means email always gets pushed down the list, writing copy is fine but the design side takes forever. I either end up with something that looks too basic or spend an hour trying to make a template halfway match my brand and they look kind of cheap tbh. Looking for an AI email generator that handles the design automatically and doesn't need a design background or heavy setup to actually use.
I’m a real estate agent who turned the prospecting system I actually use into an online course. Now I’m stuck.
I’m a real estate agent who turned the prospecting system I actually use into an online course. Now I’m stuck. I’ve been a Realtor for about 10 years, and over that time I developed a prospecting system that consistently generated listing appointments and business for me. Since it’s not something I learned from a brokerage or any coaching I had ever paid for or seen for free on youtube. I decided to package it into an online course. Creating the course was honestly the easy part. I filmed the tutorials showing my process and uploaded it into aa few 30 minute lessons on kajabi....Selling it has been a completely different challenge. Over the past month I’ve: Built multiple landing pages (and rebuilt them more times than I can count). Changed the pricing. Evolved from running Meta traffic campaigns straight to a sales page, to sales campaigns to an sales page, and now toward more of a funnel with lead capture before the offer. Where I offer to research the buyers market personally to make sure it is a fit, then send them to the sales page when it is a fit. Tested multiple ad creatives and messaging angles. Made countless copy and design tweaks. The ads seem to do okay. People watch the videos, click through, and spend time on the pages. According to Meta and Google Analytics anyway. But conversions are much lower than I’d hoped. I have only finally made 2 sales at $297 recently with $1500 in ad spend. I’m at the point where I can’t tell if I’m simply in the normal testing phase that everyone goes through, or if I’m missing something fundamental. For those of you who’ve successfully sold online courses from no following, what ended up moving the needle the most? Was it your offer, your messaging, your funnel, your traffic quality, building trust, or something else entirely? I’d love to hear what finally clicked for you because I feel like I’m too close to this project to see the obvious problems anymore...and I'm exhausted.
Looking for someone who can setup GHL : lead to booked appointments system
What we need A GoHighLevel system that takes leads from Meta ads and turns them into booked, confirmed appointments — with minimal no-shows. Needs to be built as a reusable template we can clone for future clients. Scope • CRM pipeline: New Lead → Contacted → Qualified → Booked → Completed → Won/Lost • Lead capture from Meta Lead Ads or landing page form • Automated follow-up: instant response, qualifying questions, human handoff option • Booking calendar with confirmation + reminder sequence (day-before, hour-before) • Simple reporting: leads in, booked, show-up rate • Built so it can be duplicated/cloned for new clients easily Dm me if interested!!
I'm looking for some advice on improving my Meta (Facebook/Instagram) ads for a small online learning business.
I sell recorded online courses through Facebook and Instagram ads. My budget is only $2/day since it's a small business. Here's my situation: I previously spent about $88 on ads and sold around 18 courses, so the ads were profitable. After launching other campaigns, sales dropped significantly, even though I'm now running only the campaign that previously performed best. My target audience is just one region with about 5 million people. I'm only using image ads. I haven't created any video ads yet. The purchase doesn't happen through a website. People message me, we chat in Messenger/Instagram, and when they're ready to buy, I send them my phone number so they can transfer the payment manually. So Meta can't directly track purchases. A few questions: 1. Since Meta can't track my actual sales, what's the best campaign objective or optimization strategy? 2. Is Advantage+ Audience worth using in my case, or should I stick to manual audience targeting? 3. Should I create video ads instead of image ads? 4. Should I test multiple creatives again, even though one ad was previously the winner? 5. Are there any other strategies you would recommend to improve conversions with such a small daily budget? I'd really appreciate advice from anyone who has experience selling digital products or online courses through Meta ads without a website or automated checkout.
Curious how other people running cold email handle this.
What's the last deliverability problem that actually hurt one of your campaigns? Not asking in theory. I mean a specific instance: what happened, how did you find out (before or after it tanked results), and what did it end up costing you... time, a client, a burned domain? Also curious what you currently use to catch this stuff before it happens. What's annoying about it?
What tools or software are you using that have helped your emails look better and function better? We use Hubspot and it is limited in the emails. Obviously I can custom code emails, but wondering if people have tools they like that do this more easily.
Best email marketing software for local service businesses?
Managing a service company and using email marketing seems to consistently come out on the bottom. All applications that I have seen seem designed for use by a complete ecommerce business and its entire staff, but not for a single entrepreneur who needs to send an occasional promo to his subscribers. What I need is an application that will allow me to create emails regularly, without any need for design skills and giving me a little bit of assurance that the email is going to work. There are too many choices, so I need honest opinions.
Hi everyone, I run lead generation campaigns for multiple clients through Meta Ads and Google Ads. The campaigns generate leads, but I'm facing a major problem after the leads come in. A large percentage of the leads either: \ Never answer the phone. \ Reject the call. \ Don't call back even after multiple attempts. \ Sometimes they fill out the form but seem to disappear completely. This happens across different industries, so I'm trying to figure out whether the issue is with my lead quality, the follow-up process, or something else. Currently, we usually call the lead soon after it is submitted, but the pickup rate is still very low. I really need your help. If you've dealt with this before, I'd appreciate genuine advice. Some questions I have: 1. How quickly should I call a new lead? 2. How many call attempts are ideal before giving up? 3. Should I send a WhatsApp message before calling or after a missed call? 4. What kind of SMS or WhatsApp message has worked best for you? 5. Have you found that certain lead forms produce more responsive leads? 6. Are there any CRM or automation workflows that significantly improved your contact rate? 7. What are the biggest mistakes that reduce lead pickup rates? Please share what has actually worked for you in real campaigns. I'm looking for practical, real-world advice rather than theory. I really need the help, so please give genuine advice. Thanks in advance!
I now have 1600 inboxes. Does anyone have more than that? I'm just curious. I do it for myself, so I am guessing small agencies have a ton. My first 1000 have been fingerprinted/clustered. 600 more warming up now. Here's some mistakes I may have made.
I have 1000 I've been using, 600 more cooking up. Paying big bucks obviously ($8000/mo. just for the inboxes alone... not counting domains and other associated costs). The first 1000 I sent 5 emails daily each = 5000 a day and had around 3% response rate. It was great. Then, in one day they tanked to about 0.2% (and continues to drop). They got identified as a syndicate. Because of that, I ramped up the 1000 to 35 a day each. So now I got another 600 cooking up now. Mistakes I may have made 1) All on one platform. I should have mixed the 1600 onto Instantly, Apollo etc to help avoid fingerprinting. 2) I have 320 domains x 5 inboxes on each = 1600 inboxes. I keep reading to have 2-3 max, but I went hard at 5. Because it's for my own business, I can't buy pre-warmed generic names. I need it to be related to my business. Too bad as I'd go bananas with the pre-warmed and just burn them. If I could send 50,000 a day and get 0.2% = 100 responses a day, I'd still be in decent shape. Out of those 100, 70% are going to be OOOs / not interested. But then there's another 30% or so I can send more info to that want to engage. It's big bucks, but something necessary for my business right now. I'm still a bit new at this (I've been in a deep rabbit hole since last November when I purchased my first names. And when I say deep research, I'm deep in it daily. I love it though. Email deliverability is very interesting. Worries I have for the future I noticed early on that it's hard to email MSN, Yahoo. Because of that, I started focusing my lists on Gmail. My worry is Gmail becomes like MSN/Yahoo. Anyway, I love the email deliverability world. Without finding it, my business would be at a standstill. It's really helped me do what I need to do. It's just crazy expensive, but worth it for me if I can get some to land.
how do I evaluate which managed automation tools are worth investing in to streamline our repetitive operational workflows without disrupting our current systems?
I keep running into the same bottleneck: my team spends hours every week on manual, repetitive tasks like data entry, scheduling, and follow-up emails that pull us away from higher-value work. I'm trying to figure out how to evaluate which managed automation tools actually fit our workflows, since I don't have the technical background to assess integration complexity or long-term maintenance needs myself. What worries me most is picking something that looks good on paper but ends up creating more work than it saves, or that doesn't scale as we grow. I'd like a clearer framework for weighing cost, ease of setup, and reliability before committing to any solution.
All Microsoft recipients go to spam, even MS-to-MS. Domain/mailboxes are from Instantly. Why?
I’m running inbox placement tests in Instantly, and all Microsoft recipients are landing in spam. Setup detail: the domain and mailboxes were bought through Instantly. Results: Google sender → Google recipient: inbox Microsoft sender → Google recipient: inbox Google sender → Microsoft recipient: spam Microsoft sender → Microsoft recipient: spam I also tested a plain-text email with no links, no tracking, no images, no attachments, and it still went to Microsoft spam. Domain report shows SPF, DKIM, and DMARC are set up, with DMARC at p=reject. Missing MTA-STS/TLS-RPT/BIMI, but I don’t think that’s the main issue. What should be my next steps?
Hello all, I’m located in north Texas around the DFW area. I got licensed and started up shop around the end of April. Since then I’ve been hitting open houses on the weekends talking to roughly 10-15 agents each weekend, some good experiences, some not so great which is to be expected. I’ve also started doing some marketing now with setting up a website and Google LSA. I’m getting a bit discouraged since I have only had one inspection so far and it was a referral from a friend. I don’t have any reviews yet on my Google Business Profile so it obviously isn’t helping me out much but I’m wondering if there is anything more I could be doing? Should I just keep being patient or is there anything else I’m missing? (Money isn’t the issue, I have a full time career with very flexible hours which allows me to do this as well) Thank you for any and all advice
Do you build HTML emails from scratch every time, or do you have a shortcut?
Hey everyone! I make HTML emails now and then — team updates, small newsletters, that kind of thing. And every time, I feel like I'm starting from zero. The writing part is quick, but getting the layout to actually look right (and not break in Outlook or gmail...) always takes way longer than I expect. I'm curious how others handle this. Do you keep a base file and reuse it, and how do you structure it? Copy from an old email? Use a tool? I feel like I keep rebuilding the same thing over and over and there must be a smarter way...
Is anyone getting blackholed? (Emails not even going to spam). I'm sending around 35,000 emails a day by the way. Dropped from 3% to around 0.1% response rate. Paying big bucks too (around $8000/mo.).
I had 200 domains x 5 inboxes..... 1000 inboxes x 5 emails = 5000 emails a day at around a 3% reply rate = around 150 responses a day. It was a glorious time for someone new to this. Then, my 1000-inbox health went into the gutter and my response rates went to around 0.2%. I think my inboxes got "fingerprinted" and "clustered" and got slapped. So, I upped it to 1000 inboxes x 35 = 35,000 emails a day. Some emails were going through as I am getting some responses -- I've been hovering around 0.2% response rates = 70 a day. Now, it's even less. Today it was like .006%. I figure geez, even if it's going to spam, I'd get some responses. Now I'm wondering if I'm getting blackholed. I got another 300 inboxes cooking up right now. Warmed for a few weeks. Getting ready to test on those with brand new scripts. Maybe I'll see 3% response rates again at least temporarily. I'm paying big bucks too, actually $8500/mo. when you count the 300 inboxes. Has anyone ever got blackholed, where Gmail Microsoft etc is just nuking the emails and not even sending to spam?
ran a glockapps test and got 75% spam, ran every other popular third party tool and everything came back perfect. is glockapps just bs or am I missing something, and is there a holy grail way to determine if your emails are going to spam?
I recently decided to start my own custom build and fabrication business. I have all of the skills to design and make pretty much anything people want to hire me to make but I have no idea how to find customers. I know that the market is out there. Most scenic carpentry shops ive worked for are always pretty slammed and theres alot of shops actively hiring on people to keep up with demand. But im completely lost with how to market myself and find customers. Ive looked up some possible freelancers to hire to help me but im not sure what i even need or how to direct them

Is $4000/month for SEO insane for a business our size or am I being cheap
We do about $800K a year in revenue. Plumbing and HVAC, two locations, DFW area. Been running Google Ads for quite some time…working fine. But can’t keep ignoring organic. Got a few quotes. Range was $1,200/month to $4,500/month. No idea how to evaluate them. For those of you running similar service businesses…what are you spending on SEO and is it actually worth it compared to just running more ads?
For anyone in political consulting, what's your outbound lead and funnel strategy?
Hi Y'all I run a public affairs company doing both PR and Government affairs for nonprofits and corporations doing social impact work, and I wanna figure out a outbound leads strategy. For the most part, we've focused almost entirely on networking for outbound leads, but that's exhausting and takes up ALOT of time. For my industry (political), many people are relationship based, but we've moved and are starting from scratch. I'd love to know what some of y'all are doing to capture leads, and move them through a funnel. SN: I've started working on my inbound leads, and have a grasp on email/Linkedin outbound, just haven't done it yet.
Anyone else's inquiries just... not converting anymore?
Ok so small business owner here and I need to know if this is just me or if it's happening to everyone. Up until last year I was doing pretty good...llike 30-40% of the people who messaged me actually turned into paying customers. Now it's dropped to like 2-4%. Nothing on my end has changed. I haven't touched my prices, I still reply fast.. product's the same. But the way people message me now is so different. Out of every 100 messages, about 50 just ask "how much?" and then disappear. The other half almost always try to negotiate, and when I tell them I can't discount because I think my prices are already fair.. they just leave me on read. Not even a "no thanks" So out of 100 inquiries I'm lucky if 2-3 actually buy. It's honestly draining.. I spend time replying, sometimes putting together custom quotes.. and then just get ghosted the moment I don't lower the price. Is this happening to other small business owners too right now? Are people just way more price-sensitive/negotiate-happy than before? Or could this be something I'm doing wrong? Genuinely want to know how others are dealing with this.
Anyone here have real experience with AI Acquisition? thinking of booking another call.
Hey guys, I run an agency business (nothing huge, just me + 2 part time people) and I’ve been trying to get better with lead gen for our clients Because right now it’s taking most part of our day Most of the time I’m doing the outreach myself, following up manually, trying to remember who replied, who needs a nudge, who booked a call etc…. It works sometimes but it’s getting messy and I feel like I’m wasting a lot of time on admin stuff instead of actually closing tgh clients. I found AI Acquisition through an Instagram ad (I know lol). The call was decent and they explained their AI agents for cold email, LinkedIn outreach, reply handling, booking calls and client management. It sounds like something could help my exact problem,, but I’m also trying to not get carried away just because the sales call went fine wanted to ask Has anyone here actually used their AI agents for their agency ? Like lead gen, follow ups, booking calls, keeping prospects organized. Did it actually make things easier or do you still end up doing most of it yourself?
Recruiters, how do you organize candidate follow-ups?
Do you rely on your ATS/CRM, calendar reminders, spreadsheets, sticky notes, email flags, or something else? Follow-ups are one of those things that sound simple but get messy fast. What system actually works for you?
Is anyone else losing sanity chasing clients for assets right after onboarding?
Hey everyone Just need to vent/see if I’m the only one here. Every time we sign a new client, the first 2 weeks are absolute chaos. We send them the welcome email, ask for their brand assets, logos, platform accesses, and then... silence. We end up spending half our week chasing them down across Slack, WhatsApp, and emails just to get the basic files we need to actually start working. It kills all the excitement and momentum of a new contract. We tried using Google Forms and Drive, but clients just drop off midway, forget what they uploaded, or things get scattered. How are you guys handling this without looking like an annoying debt collector?
Hiring an email marketing agency vs. building in-house vs. using a freelancer: what actually worked for you?
Running growth for a mid-sized DTC skincare brand and we're at a crossroads on email . Currently we have one generalist marketer who handles everything from paid social to copywriting, and email is basically an afterthought. We send maybe two campaigns a month and our flows are overly simple. I've been weighing on three options: hiring a dedicated in house email person (it should be around $70-80k salary), piercing together a freelancer setup with a strategist and a separate designer, or simply outsourcing everything to an email marketing agency that handles the entire process. Each one has a pretty different risk profile and I just can't make a decision. The in-house route gives you control but its slow to ramp up and you're one resignation away from starting over. Freelancers are flexible but managing multiple people across different time zones can be quite a challenge. An agency feels like the cleaner handoff .So I don't know ive heard mixed reviews about how responsive they are once you're no longer a new client. For anyone who has been in this same position, what tipped it for you? And if you went the agency route, how did you vet them before signing anything?
And I'm getting conflicting statements from Bluehost's AI and real agents. Agent, after I sent him a test email stated the "emails are blocked" and are not being sent. They scanned for infected files. None found. I verified my MX, SPF, DKIM, and PTR records. I changed every email password. I waited 24+ hours, and block wasn't cleared. Now they seem to be denying they are blocking anything. Blacklisting exists only at UCEPROTECT and at levels 2 and 3. But is that preventing mail from going out? I would assume it might only matter at the receiver mail server. UCEPROTECT says Who is responsible for this listing? YOU ARE NOT!. Your IP \[redacted\] was NOT directly involved in aabuse, but has a bad neighborhood. Other customers within this range did not care about their security and got hacked, started spamming, or were even attacking others, while your provider has possibly not even noticed that there is a serious problem. We are sorry for you, but you have chosen an provider not acting fast enough on abusers. Therefore we recommend: Please send a complaint to your provider and request they fix this problem immediatly. Think about this: You pay them so that you can use the Internet without problems; If they are ignoring your complaint or claiming they can't do anything, you should consider changing your provider. As you should know now: It is not you, it is your complete provider which got UCEPROTECT-Level 3 listed. Your IP \[redacted\] was NOT part of abusive action, but you are the one that has freely chosen your provider. By tolerating or ignoring that your provider doesn't care about abusers you are indirectly also supporting the global spam with your money. Seen from this point of view, you really shouldn't wonder about the consequences. Therefore we recommend: Please send a complaint to your provider and request they fix this problem immediatly. Think about this: You pay them so that you can use the Internet without problems; If they are ignoring your complaint or claiming they can't do anything, you should consider changing your provider. There are currently about 105,000 providers worldwide, but only a few hundred make it to get listed into UCEPROTECT-Level 3. AFAIK either Bluehost has a block specifically on my domains (which are 100% innocent of spamming) or every Bluehost customer at my IP address, and there certainly are hundreds or thousands, is also unable to send mail. UCEPROTECT says Bluehost has 742912 IPs.
new domains for cold outreach - how long for email warmup?
I've been doing cold outreach for our saas for about 6 months now and finaly bit the bullet on getting dedicated domains instead of using subdomains. Got 3 new domains registered yesterday and connected them to Instantly. I know you need to do email warm up on new addresses before you can start sending volume but I'm seeing wildly diffrent advice online. Some people say 2 weeks, others say you need 6-8 weeks of warming before your safe to send. Right now I'm planning to warm for 30 days with Lemwarm while we build out our lists. We tried pulling data from Apollo but the bounce rates were rough so we're looking at Prospeo for the contact data side since their mobile numbers would let us do multi-channel alongside email. For those who've done this - whats the minimum inbox warmup period you'd recommend before starting to send 50-100 emails per day per inbox? And do you ramp up gradually after warming or just go straight to your target volume?
My SaaS Website Gets at least 300 visitors a day but no conversion
My saas is a form builder and form backend in one tool with a lead pipeline. When I didn't have this massive traffic, I got 3 paying customers and a lot of signups last month. But now, I hardly get people to sign up. My CTAs are working well, but still no conversion. My free plan was 25 form submissions per month, but I have decided to increase it to 50 to at least take away that Psychological barrier and let people try the product and convert, because my competitors are generous with their free plans. I did that, but still. I wish I could share the link for someone to help. The name of the product is Formgrid. I get a lot of traffic through SEO.
