Email Marketing That Works While You Sleep.

We build and manage email programmes that nurture leads, recover abandoned carts, re-engage dormant customers, and generate consistent revenue from your existing database.

ROI

Email marketing delivers an average ROI of $36 for every $1 spent, making it one of the highest-performing digital marketing channels.

Reach Customers the Moment They’re Ready to Buy

Many businesses have tried Google Ads and come away with the same story: budget spent, clicks delivered, enquiries missing. The problem is rarely the platform. It is the strategy, the structure, and who is managing it.

Google Ads remains the most intent-driven advertising platform available. When someone types 'emergency plumber Werribee' or 'accountant Hoppers Crossing', they are not browsing. They have a problem and want a solution now. A well-structured campaign places your business in front of them at exactly that moment.

The difference between a campaign that drains your budget and one that generates steady, profitable enquiries is strategy, structure, creative, and ongoing optimisation. That is what our Google Ads team does.

Email Campaigns Built for Retention, Engagement, and Sales

Every business has different objectives. We match the right campaign type — or combination of types — to your specific goals and budget.

Welcome and Onboarding Sequences

What it is

Automated 3 to 6 email series triggered when a new subscriber joins or a new customer makes their first purchase. Covers brand introduction, key services or products, social proof, and a first-time offer or CTA.

Expect

Welcome emails average 50 to 60% open rates versus 20 to 25% for standard broadcasts. The highest-ROI automation most businesses can build.

Abandoned Cart Recovery

What it is

Automated 3-email sequence for shoppers who added items to cart but did not complete purchase: immediate reminder, follow-up with social proof, final email with urgency or offer.

Expect

Abandoned cart sequences recover 5 to 10% of abandoned carts on average. For a store with 100 daily abandoned carts at $80 average order value, that is $4,000 to $8,000 per month in recovered revenue.

Re-engagement and Win-Back Campaigns

What it is

Visual and banner ads across 2M+ websites and apps in the Google Display Network. Targeting by audience, interest, website content, and remarketing lists.

Expect

Lower conversion rates than search but critical for brand presence throughout the buying journey. Creative quality is the primary performance variable.

Performance Max

What it is

Google's automated campaign type displaying ads across Search, Display, YouTube, Gmail, and Maps in one campaign. You provide assets and audience signals; Google optimises delivery.

Expect

Budget scaling across channels when correctly configured. Requires skilled audience signal and asset group setup to minimise wasted spend.

YouTube Ads

What it is

Video ads before, during, or alongside YouTube content. Skippable in-stream, non-skippable, bumper, and discovery formats.

Expect

Google Review request emails timed 5 to 7 days after delivery generate response rates of 15 to 25%. This is how businesses grow from 10 to 100+ Google reviews within 12 months.

IN-HOUSE CREATIVE ADVANTAGE

For Email Marketing, most agencies charge separately for creative or use stock imagery. Through Westend Photography and Westend Podcast, we produce commercial photography and video content at our Werribee studio. Campaigns using original, brand-authentic imagery consistently outperform stock-photo campaigns on Display and Performance Max.

Common questions.

Which email platform do you use?

We work primarily with Klaviyo, HubSpot, and Mailchimp. Platform recommendation depends on your business type -- Klaviyo is best for eCommerce, HubSpot for service businesses with CRM needs, Mailchimp for simpler broadcast-focused programmes. We assess the right fit during your strategy session.

Does email marketing work with a small list?

Yes. A small, engaged list outperforms a large, disengaged one. Even a list of 500 past customers can generate meaningful revenue through a well-constructed welcome or re-engagement sequence. We build your programme around the list you have while growing it.

How do you ensure emails actually land in inboxes?

We configure sender domain authentication (DKIM, SPF, DMARC) before any campaign goes live, maintain clean suppression lists, and monitor deliverability metrics monthly. Inbox placement is not guaranteed, but proper technical setup and list hygiene eliminate the most common causes of spam folder delivery.

What is the difference between email marketing and marketing automation?

Email marketing typically refers to broadcast campaigns -- newsletters, promotional sends -- and trigger-based sequences. Marketing automation is broader: it includes email, SMS, CRM pipeline automation, and multi-channel workflows. We offer both as separate services that can be combined.

What results can I expect from email marketing?

Welcome sequences average 50 to 60% open rates. Abandoned cart sequences recover 5 to 10% of abandoned carts on average. Broadcast campaigns for engaged lists average 25 to 35% open rates. Specific results depend on your industry, list quality, and offer. We report on revenue attributed to email, not just open rates.

How much does email marketing management cost?

Email marketing management starts from $800 per month for automation maintenance and monthly broadcasts. Full-service setup including platform migration, sequence builds, and template design starts from $2,000 as a one-time setup fee, then a monthly management retainer.
