Warmup Period

Day Free Pro Ultra
1 2 5 10
2 3 10 25
3 4 15 50
4 5 25 100
5 5 35 125
6+ 5 (full) 50 (full) 150 (full)

Best Practices

  1. Be specific — Narrow target audiences get better response rates
  2. Set realistic goals — A 5-10% reply rate is excellent for cold outreach
  3. Monitor bounce rates — High bounces damage sender reputation
  4. Let warmup complete — Don't try to increase volume prematurely
  5. Review hot leads promptly — Respond within 24 hours for best conversion

Compliance

All campaigns automatically enforce:

  • CAN-SPAM Act — Physical address, clear identity, one-click unsubscribe
  • GDPR — Consent tracking, data export, right to deletion
  • Email verification — All leads verified before sending
