Core service
System care
A day or two each month as your email specialist: QA before sends, reviews of agency work and new components as you grow.
- Price
- From £1,200 a month
- Time
- Rolling, 12-month terms
The problem
Systems drift without an owner. New campaign formats appear, an agency builds something outside the library, a platform update changes how a block renders.
System care keeps a specialist close to the programme without the cost of a hire.
Usually right for
- Clients with a system in place
- Teams whose email developer has left
- Groups that rely on agency builds
What you get
- Pre-send rendering QA on request, in Email on Acid across 40-plus clients
- Review of agency and platform-partner templates against the system
- Component and token updates as the brand evolves
- New templates and journeys within a monthly allowance
- A quarterly health report using the audit scorecard
How it runs

03 · Every three months
Quarterly review

- A system that improves rather than decays
Questions
Can we start care without a system build?
Yes, usually after an audit, focused on QA and fixing the highest-risk templates first.
Other services
Email audit
A scored, prioritised review of every live template you send, with the proposal for what a system would look like.
Email design system

Transactional journey redesign
Booking, order, dispatch and account emails rebuilt as one designed journey, not a pile of templates.
