Candice Beaulieu's Review Sourced from Google
Working with Chariot has been an outstanding experience. What could have been a daunting website transition felt smooth and seamless thanks to the team’s expertise, responsiveness, and unwavering support throughout the entire process. We felt fully guided and confident every step of the way and are truly grateful for this partnership. We’re excited to continue collaborating with Chariot as we grow and evolve our digital presence!
Dawn Spilsbury Pucci's Review Sourced from Google
Chariot Creative were incredible to work with. Our project development team was not familiar with building websites and Chariot Creative led us patiently by the hand through the entire process. They took our ideas, concepts and content needs and crafted the perfect website-based tool for us and our stakeholders. When we showed the results to our stakeholders around the coastal US, the consistent feedback was how beautiful and engaging the website was - which was critical for the success of our project. Chariot Creative were receptive to our crazy ideas and suggestions ("Is this even possible?") and were able to translate them into reality ("Sure, this is how it would look..."). Then, they even helped design the social marketing strategy for our project. I would (and have) recommend them to anyone needing anything web design, social marketing, SE), etc. They were a pleasure to work with.

Jason and his team are the best in the biz! We weren't sure what to expect going into this process since we had never worked with a company like Chariot before. Jason and his team made the process painless and never once made us feel like we were asking too many questions or that our questions were dumb. They were patient, kind, professional and above all else they are masters at their craft, the proof is in our new logo design and website. The feedback from our clients has been nothing but positive and we can't wait to see what the new year brings with Chariot having our backs with the ongoing website maintenance plan. They really have given us the ability to take our small business to the next level and for that we are grateful.

Compete Now was excellent to work with and helped us create an amazing website! Working with Donato and the team was an absolute pleasure, as they listened to and implemented our requests effortlessly.They made a complicated process easy to understand by providing structure and organization for the content-creation process. The team was easily accessible and quick to answer any questions that arose. I highly recommend that any company use Compete Now for their website needs!
All Star Plumbing, Heating and Air Conditioning's Review Sourced from Google
The team at Compete Now has been terrific, and they have really blown me away with my website design. I started with a basic GoDaddy website I built myself. I reached out to Compete Now to have them rebuild it. They worked with me hand and hand with my vision and made it a reality. The website looks beautiful, it's snappy speed-wise, and most important it doesn't read like a shoe-horned SEO website to the consumer. Great job guys!

I highly recommend working with Donato and the Compete Now team for web presence SEO and google ads campaigns.

I have dealt with Ewen via my business for the last 4 years and cannot recommend his services highly enough. Has developed a site for us that is performing well and on any additional requirements has been superlative in anything we ask of him. Cannot recommend this business highly enough. Do not hesitate to deal with them.....but just don't make him to busy that he doesn't have time for us :-)

Stephanie Ng's Review Sourced from Google
We connected with Mulberry Marketing through mutual industry connections and initially engaged them for support with our paid advertising strategy. This quickly evolved into a more strategic partnership, where they helped us deliver an integrated campaign featuring Evie, Envirosuite’s digital persona, to drive leads in the Australian mining sector.The team was professional throughout the process. Two things that stood out were their ability to translate a complex idea into a clear, compelling campaign and their efficient execution from strategy through to delivery.We were happy with the outcome and would definitely recommend Mulberry Marketing to others.
Nicole McCarthy's Review Sourced from Google
I met Stephanie Waters and her team when I worked at an Event and Expo company and they were the agency tasked with rebranding some of the events.I arrived when the new branding was complete, and I really thought it hit the mark for the new audience we were planning to attract.Her agency was tasked with using paid advertising to build a customer base for an annual expo which had to attract the loyal followers plus bring in new attendees. They undertook digital ads across the Meta platforms, completed the brand identity for the website, and created some printed collateral.I really enjoyed the experience of working with Stephanie and her team, because they love marketing! They knew all the channels and possibilities, whereas I understood the audience and who we needed to attract. I find the operational level of digital advertising enormously confusing and I was really pleased to rely on their technical expertise and understanding of how to be as effective as you can be in the constantly evolving digital space. They really understood how to make best use of the budget (reaching some excellent ROI results) and how to spend wisely, to achieve strategic goals, not just tactical wins.I would really welcome the opportunity to work with them again because it really felt like a partnership - albeit too brief!

They help businesses grow by improving revenue per send, conversion rates, and customer retention, mostly through better targeting, automation, and optimization.
Many businesses begin on a free plan to validate their audience. Agencies help transition from basic newsletters under a free plan to revenue-driving automation, segmentation, and lifecycle strategies.
According to the ZeroBounce report, 93% of people use email every day, and many say it actively improves their shopping experience.
For a small business, email marketing often delivers one of the highest returns compared to paid advertising channels.
Higher customer engagement leads directly to improved retention, repeat purchases, and lifetime value.
In Litmus' State of Email 2025 findings, 35% of marketing leaders report $10-$36 returned per $1 spent, 30% report $36-$50 returned per $1spent, and 5% report $50+ returned per $1 spent.
Unlike scheduled (non-automated) email campaigns, automated emails show:
In eCommerce datasets, automated emails drove 37% of email-generated sales while accounting for 2% of email volume, according to the Omnisend report.
By testing different email template variations and layouts, top email marketing agencies improve customer engagement and optimize conversion performance over time.
The Baymard Institute reports that the average documented online cart abandonment is 70.22%.
Statistics show that nearly 4.5 billion people worldwide used email in 2025, and this number is projected to reach over 4.8 billion by 2027. This scale is one of the main reasons email marketing companies continue to deliver strong, measurable ROI across industries.
The synergy between email and SMS marketing matters:
Using both strategically increases opportunities for touchpoints, meaning customers see your message in multiple places and multiple contexts, which improves brand recall and conversion likelihood.
Email marketing companies offer deep specialization in one channel (email), driving higher engagement and conversions through targeted campaigns and automation.
Full-service digital agencies offer a broad marketing strategy across many digital channels, aiming for unified brand growth and audience reach.
More specifically, these two types of agencies differ in the following:
| Email marketing companies | Full-service digital agencies | |
| Scope of services | Focus specifically on email as a channel. They build and manage everything tied to email performance. | Offer a broad suite of marketing and digital marketing services such as search engine optimization (SEO), pay-per-click (PPC) advertising, social media marketing, content marketing, web design/development, branding, and email marketing. |
| Depth vs. Breadth of expertise | Specialists; their entire skill set and resources are tuned to email performance, from list strategy to automated lifecycle campaigns. | Generalists across multiple disciplines. They manage many channels simultaneously but may not offer the same level of deep specialization on email alone. |
| Strategic focus and outcomes | Emphasizes long-term engagement and conversion via email automation, segmentation, and deliverability best practices. Their goal is to maximize email ROI specifically. | Aim for holistic digital growth. They integrate search, social, paid ads, content, and email into one unified marketing strategy to increase overall brand visibility, traffic, and conversions. |
| Integration with other channels | Specialist email agencies may integrate emails with CRMs, e-commerce platforms, and customer data platforms, but their primary metric is email performance. | Coordinate cross-channel strategies so that SEO, email, social, paid media, and other channels reinforce each other, helping brands create consistent campaigns |
The most-cited average benchmark is $36 returned for every $1 spent, which equals 3600% ROI.
Email marketing ROI also varies widely across industries.
The Litmus report shows the following ROI by industry figures:
Average ROI is high, but outcomes depend on execution
Litmus found that 41% of businesses use direct revenue attribution to email campaigns, while many still rely on engagement metrics like opens/clicks (59%).
DMA's Email Benchmarking Report from 2025 reports 98% delivery, 35.9% open rate, and 2.3% unique click rate, which is a useful context for what healthy programs can look like.
We have created a list of email marketing firms for you to choose from based on the different budget ranges they're offering:

Hire an email marketing agency when your internal efforts aren't delivering the results you need, and you need to boost performance, save time, and improve ROI. Many small business owners begin with a free plan and basic campaigns, but hire an agency once email becomes a core revenue channel.
More specifically, you should hire an email marketing firm when:
The cost varies widely, depending on experience level, services included, list size, and campaign complexity. Email marketing firms usually charge $15 to $300 per hour, depending on the agency's expertise and location.
Per Email or Per Project
While free plans allow businesses to start email marketing at no cost, they typically limit the number of contacts, automation, and advanced analytics. Agencies, by contrast, focus on revenue optimization, making them a growth investment rather than a cost.
When choosing an email marketing firm, focus on measurable performance, strategic capability, and transparency. Here are the key criteria to consider:
Email marketing company prices are influenced primarily by:
If a business is still operating on a free plan, agency costs may initially include email marketing platform migration, list restructuring, or automation setup, which can increase onboarding pricing.
By understanding these factors, businesses can better compare proposals and choose an agency whose pricing matches the value and outcomes they expect.
