The problem it solves

Running email campaigns without a full CRM means juggling spreadsheets, manually checking for bad addresses, and losing track of who received what. Signing up for an expensive marketing platform feels like overkill when you just need reliable sending and tracking.

Who it fits

Small businesses and marketers who want to run email campaigns without buying a dedicated CRM platform.

How it works

  1. Runs on a schedule every 30 minutes to check for pending sends
  2. Reads the subscriber list from a chosen audience segment sheet
  3. Filters out invalid and disposable email addresses
  4. Sends the matching email template to each valid subscriber
  5. Logs the send result and delivery status back into the sheet
What you get

Email campaigns reaching your segmented list

You get segmented email campaigns sent straight from your spreadsheet, with delivery results logged automatically for every subscriber.

What you get

Delivered campaign emails and an updated Google Sheets log of who received what and when.

What you need

A Google Workspace account and a MailerSend account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
