What does a cold email agency do?
A cold email agency runs outbound email for you: it defines the target list, buys and warms sending domains, writes the sequences, sends, follows up, handles replies and books meetings into your calendar. You pay a monthly retainer, a fee per meeting or per lead, or a mix of both.
How much does a cold email agency cost?
Most cold email and appointment setting agencies charge a retainer of $2,000 to $15,000 a month, according to industry estimates, plus a setup fee of $3,000 to $5,000 and a minimum term of about 3 months. Pay per meeting deals run $300 to $600 a meeting. Named examples: B2Bmeetings lists $4,500 to $10,500 a month and SalesRoads $11,950 per 4 weeks for one SDR.
Is a cold email marketing agency worth it?
It can be when you need phone or LinkedIn outreach as well, when nobody can take the meetings, or when your offer still needs testing by people who have run many campaigns. It is harder to justify when you know your buyer and only need volume, because most of the retainer pays for list building, writing and sending that software now runs.
What is the alternative to hiring a cold email agency?
Run the same motion on Getlead. Paste your website, approve the plan, and Getlead finds and verifies the decision makers, writes one email per person, sends from already warmed mailboxes and answers replies with your booking link. You add credit from $30, and each email that goes out costs $0.03. There is no retainer, setup fee or contract.
How much does the same volume cost on Getlead?
2,000 emails a month cost $60 at $0.03 each, and 10,000 cost $300. You set a daily budget, and that is the most Getlead can spend in a day. For high volume, Unlimited Outbound is $697 a month per block of 1,080 emails a day with no per-email fee.
Do I see the emails before they go out?
Yes. Watching the plan get built is free, and every new campaign waits in review for an hour before its first send. You can read, edit or pause it. If you do nothing, it starts on its own.
Does Getlead guarantee meetings like a pay per meeting agency?
No. Getlead charges per email sent, not per meeting, so you never pay a meeting premium, and you also carry the result. How many meetings a campaign books depends on your offer and your market.
Can I stop at any time?
Any day. Set the daily budget to zero or switch sending off and nothing more is spent. There is no subscription to cancel, and unused credit does not expire.
