Do you only work with CPG brands?
No. Sunlo has run email for 100+ ecommerce brands across most categories. Consumables are where we've done the most work and where the system is deepest - 40+ supplement, beauty, food & drink, oral-care and pet brands - so this funnel and team are built for them.
Most of our volume is Amazon or retail. Does email still matter?
More, not less. Marketplace customers aren't yours; DTC subscribers are. Email is how you move repeat purchases onto your own store at your own margin, and how you launch new SKUs to an audience before you pay for placement.
We use Recharge / Skio / Loop for subscriptions. Can you work with that?
Yes. The major subscription apps push their events into Klaviyo - subscription started, upcoming charge, skipped, cancelled, payment failed - and those events are exactly what the subscription-save and pre-renewal flows run on. We scope your specific setup on the audit.
Will you write aggressive health or product claims?
No. We write to sell without disease claims, “cures” or before/after promises you can't substantiate. Education, ingredient stories, routines and social proof do the selling. Compliance sign-off stays with you; we make it easy to give.
Do you do SMS as well?
Yes, where it earns its place: replenishment reminders, restock alerts, subscription and shipping notices, and a small number of launch sends. We don't run SMS as a discount cannon - it burns the list.
We already have someone doing email. Why would we need you?
Keep them - brand knowledge and fast approvals make our work better. What Sunlo adds is the consumables system: replenishment logic, subscription flows, deliverability discipline and the testing engine one generalist rarely has time to build. If the receipts above embarrass your current numbers, that's worth knowing too - the audit will tell you either way.
How quickly is the full system live?
Typically the nine core flows and the campaign calendar are live within the first 30 days; replenishment logic per SKU and subscription flows follow as soon as your product data is mapped. Campaigns start earning in week one while the flows are being built.
What does it cost?
A flat monthly fee, no revenue share, rolling monthly with 30 days' notice. Pricing is shared on the audit call once we've seen your account and know the scope - it depends on SKU count, subscription setup and whether SMS is in play.
Do you work with brands doing less than $100K per month?
This offer is designed for established brands doing more than $100K per month. Below that, the customer volume usually isn't there for replenishment and subscription flows to move the numbers meaningfully, and a full retention system rarely pays for itself.
What does “outperform your current results or you don't pay” actually mean?
On the audit call we take your current email numbers - attributed revenue, repeat-purchase rate, subscription starts - and agree, in writing, the baseline we have to beat and the window we have to beat it in. If Sunlo takes your brand on under the performance guarantee and doesn't beat that baseline, you don't pay the management fee for that period. It is subject to the final agreement and to eligibility: $100K+/month, consistent traffic, a real customer list, access and approvals on time.
Can you guarantee a specific number?
Nobody honest can promise a specific outcome - platforms, inboxes and markets change. What we can do is put our fee behind beating what you have today, agree a realistic target after the audit based on your traffic, list and product cycle, and report against it every week.
