About Email Broadcast

Email Broadcast has been in the email marketing business since 2000. Based in Seattle, Washington, they have a team of around 20 people working coast to coast across the US, led by CEO Jacob Durgan. Over 25 years, they have built thousands of campaigns for more than 500 brands.

Their focus is on helping businesses get more out of email, whether that means building a program from scratch, fixing something that is not working, or taking over the day-to-day management entirely.

What makes Email Broadcast different from the rest

Email Broadcast does not hand you a package and get to work. They start by understanding your business, your audience, and your competitors, and build from there. For many of their clients, they end up acting as the entire marketing team: running campaigns, flagging opportunities, and bringing ideas that go well beyond the scope of what they are being paid for. Here is a quick look at what they offer:

This is their core service and offers the highest ROI. This covers the full scope of what an email program needs:

  • Strategy: Building an email marketing plan around your business goals, audience, and competitors.
  • Copywriting, design, and coding: Writing and building emails that look right and work across all major email clients.
  • List building and automation: Growing your subscriber base and setting up sequences that run in the background and engage subscribers over time.
  • Authentication and deliverability: Making sure your emails are set up correctly and actually reach the inbox.
  • CRM, e-commerce, and social media integration: Connecting your email program to the other platforms your business runs on.
  • Conversion rate optimization and analytics: Testing and refining campaigns to get more out of every send, and reporting on what is working.

Email Broadcast works across 40+ email service providers, including Mailchimp, Klaviyo, ActiveCampaign, HubSpot, Constant Contact, and Brevo. So whatever platform a client is on, the team can work with it. Some clients hand over their entire email program. Others come in for one specific piece and expand from there.

Cold email is the email equivalent of cold calling, except it can reach thousands of prospects at once. Email Broadcast builds the contact list, sets up the infrastructure, writes the sequences, and manages the campaigns. They run their cold email programs through a proprietary platform they built in-house, which gives clients real-time dashboard access to track warm and hot leads as they come in.

For businesses that are not sure whether they need an agency but know something is not working, Email Broadcast offers a standalone audit. They go through the entire email program, from deliverability and authentication to content and design, and provide a very detailed report. The findings are presented to the client in a live meeting, not just sent over. And there’s no ongoing commitment required either.

Maillytics is a proprietary platform built by Email Broadcast that lets clients track what their competitors are sending. It is their newest tool and one of the things that sets them apart from most email agencies.

Email Broadcast - services

A big part of why clients stay is that Email Broadcast often ends up functioning as their entire marketing team. For many of the businesses they work with, there is no in-house marketing department; Email Broadcast fills that role completely.

Who they work best with

Email Broadcast works with small and mid-sized businesses, primarily US-based, across a wide range of industries. Their client list includes education platforms, adventure travel companies, luxury furniture retailers, law firms, aesthetic medicine practices, renewable energy companies, nonprofits, and e-commerce brands, among others.

A big part of why clients stay is that Email Broadcast often ends up functioning as their entire marketing team. For many of the businesses they work with, there is no in-house marketing department; Email Broadcast fills that role completely.

Some come to Email Broadcast for a specific project, like setting up an integration or running a cold outreach campaign. Others hand over their entire email program and stay on retainer for years. Caroline, their Head of Account Management, mentioned that several of her own clients have been with the agency for five to seven years.

How they work

Getting started begins with a free consultation call. The goal is to understand the full picture: current email platform, list size, CRM and integrations, target audience, and business goals. Once they have that, Email Broadcast puts together a custom proposal and walks the client through it live. Proposals are typically built to scale, so clients can start with what they need and add more later.

Every project kicks off with a creative brief that all parties sign off on before any work begins. Once underway, each client has a dedicated account manager who gets to know their business thoroughly. That account manager pulls in the right specialists as the work requires: copywriters, designers, integration specialists, automation specialists, and a QA team. Internally, every project runs through 50-100 steps before delivery, and there is not much that gets past their review process.

For reporting and transparency, clients have direct access to dashboards where they can see campaign performance, leads from cold outreach, and competitor monitoring data in real time.

Their track record

Email Broadcast holds a 4.7 rating on Google and 4.8 on Clutch. They are a Mailchimp Expert and Partner, hold multiple Mailchimp certifications, including Email Automation and Foundations, and are a Blueshift Agency Partner and Google Ads certified. On top of that, they have built two proprietary platforms in-house: one for cold email outreach and another called Maillytics, their competitor monitoring tool.

Their client results give a good sense of what they are capable of. One e-commerce client built their email list from zero to 800,000 subscribers and generated an extra $10 million in annual revenue through email. Another tripled their average industry engagement rate and doubled the size of their medical practice.

Why we recommend Email Broadcast

What we love about the Email Broadcast team is how seriously they take client relationships. They make recommendations based on what helps the client, not on what is most profitable for them. They also bring ideas outside the scope of what they are being paid for; if they spot an opportunity that has nothing to do with their current brief, they flag it anyway. They even match account managers to clients by personality, not only skill set, because the relationship matters as much as the output.

That approach is very close to how we work at WLA. If your business needs to take email marketing seriously, whether that means building a program from scratch, cleaning up what you have, or finding out what a competitor is sending, Email Broadcast is a partner we are comfortable recommending.
