Email Deliverability Expert · Mailchimp Pro Partner

Email that lands.
By design, not luck.

Most email problems aren't content problems. They're system problems. I fix the infrastructure, list hygiene, and sending behaviour that determines whether your campaigns reach inboxes — or don't.

Why emails fail

Why do emails fail to reach the inbox?

Deliverability failures have a root cause. Most tools diagnose symptoms. I trace problems to the layer where they actually originate — infrastructure, list health, content structure, or sending behaviour.

Layer 01
Infrastructure

SPF, DKIM, DMARC, domain age, IP reputation, and warmup protocols. If the foundation is wrong, nothing else fixes it.

Layer 02
List health

Bounce rates, invalid addresses, low-engagement segments, and acquisition method. A dirty list will kill a clean infrastructure.

Layer 03
Content structure

Image-to-text ratio, HTML quality, rendering across 90+ clients including Outlook, and spam trigger patterns.

Layer 04
Sending behaviour

Volume consistency, send cadence, segmentation by engagement tier, and stagger scheduling for large lists.

Case studies

What does fixing email infrastructure actually look like?

Real systems, real constraints. These aren't use-case templates — they're actual problems that required building something that didn't exist yet.

One million unique barcodes via Mailchimp

MailchimpScale

The client needed a unique scannable barcode in every single email sent to one million recipients. No native Mailchimp feature supports this. I designed a generation and merge system that produced unique barcodes at scale, embedded correctly in every recipient's email, without breaking deliverability or rendering across clients.

70,000+ contact system with staggered scheduling

DeliverabilityAutomation

Large-volume sends without a structured stagger schedule burn sender reputation fast. I built a segmented sending system that distributed volume across time windows based on engagement tiers — protecting IP reputation while maintaining consistent delivery performance across the full list.

12GB+ asset infrastructure without delivery degradation

Heavy asset campaigns fail in predictable ways — slow load times, image blocking, spam scoring from hosted links. I architected the asset hosting and referencing structure so that 12GB+ of campaign assets loaded correctly, quickly, and without triggering content filters.

Who this is for

Is this the right service for your email problem?

Not every email problem needs infrastructure-level work. But some do. Here's how to tell the difference.

Good fit
  • You send 5,000+ emails per month and deliverability directly affects revenue
  • Your campaigns land in spam and you don't know exactly why
  • You're migrating to a new ESP and can't afford reputation loss
  • You have a large list (10k+) that hasn't been cleaned in over a year
  • You need Outlook-compatible HTML templates that work across 90+ clients
  • Your DNS authentication is set but never verified passing
  • You need a system that runs without you — documented, automated, reliable
Not the right fit
  • You need someone to write email copy or content — that's a different specialism
  • You want quick fixes without understanding what was broken
  • Your list is under 500 contacts and deliverability isn't a current problem
  • You're looking for the cheapest option — this work is priced on quality and outcome

How I work

How do you diagnose and fix an email deliverability problem?

Every project follows the same 5-step diagnostic sequence. I don't start with templates or campaigns — I start with infrastructure and work outward.

01

Audit the current state

DNS records, authentication, list composition, bounce history, sending patterns. No assumptions. Everything gets checked against real data.

02

Identify the actual failure point

Most deliverability problems have one root cause. I find it — infrastructure, list, content, or behaviour — before touching anything.

03

Fix in order of impact

Infrastructure before content. List hygiene before volume changes. The sequence matters. Fixing in the wrong order wastes time and creates new problems.

04

Test before going live

Litmus for rendering. Seed testing for placement. Spam scoring before every send. "Looks fine" is not a testing standard.

05

Document what was built

Every system I build gets documented. You should know exactly how it works — not depend on me to run it.

Services

Which email platforms do you work with?

Mailchimp, Brevo, SendGrid, GoHighLevel — and the infrastructure beneath them. The platform changes. The system design, SPF/DKIM/DMARC setup, automation logic, and HTML template standards don't.

All engagements start with a diagnostic. Scope and pricing follow from what's actually broken — not from a fixed menu.

Deliverability audit

Full diagnosis across infrastructure, list health, content, and sending behaviour. Root cause identified, fix priority listed.

Flat-rate engagement. Delivered within 5 business days.
DNS & authentication setup

SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configured correctly. Not just set — verified passing and documented.

One-time setup. Includes verification and documentation.
Automation build

Flows designed around system logic, not campaign habits. Segmentation, triggers, and timing built to hold at scale.

Scoped per project. Complexity determines timeline, not templates.
Custom HTML templates

Hand-coded and tested across 90+ email clients. Outlook-compatible. No drag-and-drop shortcuts.

Per-template pricing. Bulk rates for ongoing work.
List hygiene & segmentation

Validation, bounce removal, re-engagement sequencing, and engagement-tier segmentation for large lists.

Priced by list size. Most projects completed within 3–5 days.
Platform migration

Structured moves between ESPs without reputation loss. List integrity maintained throughout.

Scoped after audit. No migration starts without a system review.

FAQ

Common questions.

Answers to what most clients ask before getting started.

Usually one of four reasons: broken or missing SPF/DKIM/DMARC, a list with too many invalid addresses or low-engagement contacts, HTML content with poor image-to-text ratio, or irregular sending volume. A proper diagnosis identifies the root cause before touching anything.

SPF specifies which servers can send on behalf of your domain. DKIM adds a cryptographic signature that receiving servers verify. DMARC tells those servers what to do when a message fails either check. All three need to be configured correctly in DNS and verified passing — not just present.

Yes. Brevo, SendGrid, and GoHighLevel are all platforms I work with regularly. The infrastructure and system design principles transfer across all of them. Platform choice matters less than how the system is built on top of it.

Drag-and-drop builders generate bloated markup that breaks in specific clients — particularly Outlook. Hand-coded HTML templates are built to a specific rendering standard, tested across 90+ email clients with tools like Litmus, and produce consistent results regardless of the recipient's mail client.

All engagements start with a diagnostic. Scope and pricing follow from what's actually broken — not a fixed menu. Deliverability audits are flat-rate and delivered within 5 business days. The first conversation is free — no pitch, just diagnosis.

Infrastructure fixes like SPF, DKIM, and DMARC setup typically take 1–3 days. List hygiene depends on list size but most projects complete within 3–5 days. Sender reputation recovery after blacklisting takes 2–6 weeks depending on sending volume and ISP.

Email list hygiene is the process of removing invalid addresses, hard bounces, spam trap addresses, and low-engagement contacts from your sending list. A dirty list — even a small percentage — raises bounce rates, triggers spam filters, and damages sender reputation over time.

Litmus for rendering across 90+ clients, seed testing for inbox placement, MXToolbox for DNS verification, and Google Postmaster Tools for sender reputation monitoring. Spam scoring runs before every send. "Looks fine" is not a testing standard.

IP warmup is the process of gradually increasing sending volume from a new or dormant IP to build a positive reputation with ISPs. It is needed when switching to a dedicated IP, after a long sending pause, or when migrating to a new ESP. Skipping warmup on high volume is one of the most common causes of deliverability collapse.

Yes. Gmail and Outlook blocks are usually caused by reputation issues — high bounce rates, missing authentication, spam complaints, or blacklisting. The fix starts with a full audit to identify which layer is causing the block, then infrastructure repair, list cleaning, and controlled re-engagement.
