Questions people ask about Smartlead and distribute.you

Different things are being priced. $39 buys the sending software; you still buy mailboxes, a list and someone's time. distribute.you charges what the campaign spent and includes all of that.

If your team runs client outbound by hand, Smartlead's workspaces are made for you. If you want to resell outbound without staffing it, distribute.you runs each client brand as its own campaign.

We warm the domains we own, on our side. There is no pool to join because you never send from your own mailboxes.
