About Us

The Mailing List Company is here to support small businesses in setting up and optimising email marketing.

Why We Exist

The Mailing List Company was established in 2026 by Vicky Saunders.

I've spent my whole career working in marketing, PR and communications and in recent years I've built and run a number of small businesses. Despite my marketing background and knowing how vital it is to promote your small business, the sheer number of jobs I had to do as a sole trader meant that things like emailing my customers sometimes fell to the back burner.

However, with the seemingly unending focus on social media, I've become more and more passionate about explaining the vital importance of email marketing. So many small businesses work so hard on social media posts only for the algorithm to show them to a very small percentage of their customers.

Email is different. It's direct, it's straight into someone's inbox and it can be personalised. If your social media platform of choice shut down tomorrow all your followers would be gone but your mailing list would still be yours to use.

Great content

The first step to working with The Mailing List Company is to fill out the contact form which can be found at the bottom of this page, or drop an email to themailinglistcompany@gmail.com

We'll respond within 48 hours and set up a time for a quick introductory chat where we will determine if we're the right people to help you.

From there, we get started!

Our Mailing List set-up service will start on an agreed date and be complete within four weeks.

Our complete email marketing support package will begin at the start of the next month.

There's very little for you to do - but we want to ensure accuracy and that we are helping you as best as we can. We'll have an onboarding chat to find out all about your business and then regular monthly catch-ups in whatever form suits you. Our aim is to make this aspect of your marketing disappear from your to-do list.

How it works...

Proven Email Expertise

We are certified experts on major email platforms and will recommend one which is best suited to your small business. Initial set-up of the platform has no subscription cost but long-term platform fees will be explained in full. We follow strict deliverability standards, with GDPR compliance, ensuring your emails reach inboxes safely every time.

Frequently Asked Questions

▶ Which service is right for me?

That depends on where your business is at with email marketing. If it's something you have never explored before then you'll want to go for our mailing list set up service. If you have already got started with email marketing and have an existing mailing list in place but just don't have the time to be emailing customers regularly, then you'll want our complete email marketing support package. Either way, you can get started by getting in touch using the contact form below and we'll take it from there.

▶ What email platforms do you use?

There are many email platforms available and we'll work with you to establish your business objectives and which platform might work best for you. Our aim is always to find something which is simple and easy to use and which is budget-friendly. Our top pick for customers on our mailing list set-up service is MailerLite which allows for free use until you have 500 subscribers on your mailing list. For small businesses with limited or no marketing budget we find that this sort of set-up is ideal.

▶ Are there long-term contracts?

No. Our monthly support package is on a month-to-month basis. You can cancel anytime with two weeks notice. Set-up of your mailing list is a simple one-off service with no obligation to continue afterwards. However, many customers choose to move onto the monthly support package after the mailing list has been set up.

▶ How much time will I need to invest?

Very little! After an initial onboarding call to understand your brand and goals, we take care of writing, designing, and scheduling everything for you. If you are signed up to the monthly support package, we'll be in touch once a month to establish what news you want us to share and what your business objectives for that month are.

▶ How do we get started?

Simply, complete the contact form which is just below and we'll be back in touch within 48 hours to set up a time to discuss how we can help you.
