Our approach
Email Marketing
Sproutbox is a Portland-based email marketing agency. We handle strategy, design, copywriting, automation, and list management, so you can stop worrying about whether your emails are actually doing anything. Most of our email clients also work with us on advertising or brand to keep every customer touchpoint consistent.
Email has the ability to outperform other channels on ROI, but only when the list is healthy and the content is worth opening. Most accounts we inherit have bloated lists with low engagement, which tanks deliverability and makes everything else harder. A consumer food brand we manage saw click rates climb 50% within a few months of list cleanup, resegmentation, and switching from broadcast blasts to behavior-triggered flows.
Our Process
How we get Email Marketing results.
During our initial onboarding session, we’ll discuss your business, customers, competition, and define your content goals.
We’ll learn your existing brand tone and voice or build one from scratch so that any content we create is aligned with who you are as a company.
With goals defined and brand voice locked in, we’ll start writing blogs, planning email campaigns, and creating any other content you need.
Once your content is live, we’ll check the data to see how pieces are performing and where we can make improvements.
Our Team

We handle the strategy, the copy, and the setup so your list keeps working for you long after the send.

Why Sproutbox
What sets us apart.
We're not a big agency that treats you like a number. We're a Portland-based team that gets to know your business, stays consistent, and tells you the truth about what's working.
Your email list is one of your most valuable assets. We build campaigns that feel personal, not robotic.
Not everyone on your list is the same. We segment by behavior, not just demographics, so the right message reaches the right person.
Open rates are nice, but they don't pay the bills. We optimize for clicks that convert into sales.
Automated emails don't have to feel automated. We build sequences that nurture, engage, and move people toward a purchase, not feel like spam.
How often should I email my list?
Weekly is ideal for most businesses. Consistency beats sporadic blasts every time.
What makes an email convert?
Clear subject line, one main idea, personal tone, and a single obvious next step. Keep it simple.
Do you handle list management too?
Yes. Segmentation, deliverability, compliance, and strategy. We handle the boring stuff so you focus on the wins.
Can email really compete with social media?
Yes! Both social media and email marketing are powerful tools to connect with your audience. When done right, email marketing can increase brand loyalty AND conversions.
How do you grow an email list fast?
Opt-ins on your website, lead magnets that actually matter, and strategic promotions. No bought lists, ever.
Will people unsubscribe if I email too much?
Not if you're sending something they actually want. Bad emails get ignored. Good ones get opened.
