There’s something hilarious about spending your day surrounded by packing tape, shipping labels, and cardboard — and still wanting your emails to feel beautiful.
But that’s exactly where I live.
When I built Ship Orlando, I knew one thing for sure:
I didn’t want it to look like those mailbox shipping stores — you know the ones.
Crowded. Cluttered. Unwelcoming.
(I’m not here to gossip… but the UPS Store? Shhh.)
I wanted something different.
A space that felt curated — like a boutique with a shipping counter.
A little calm. A little curation. A little “this is way too cute to be a shipping store.”
And honestly? I wanted my emails to feel the same way.
That’s where Flodesk comes in.
💌 Flodesk Is the Email Tool That Feels Like a Brand
I’ve tried the usual suspects. (You know who I mean.)
Too clunky. Too plain. Too many steps to make it pretty.
Flodesk, though?
It’s like someone finally asked:
“What if email marketing looked like your favorite lifestyle brand?”
Flodesk isn’t just an email marketing platform — it’s a whole vibe.
This is email marketing for small business owners who are done settling for clunky tools.
The ones who want beautiful email templates without coding headaches.
The ones who want their emails to feel like an extension of their brand — not an afterthought.
It’s everything I wanted in a platform:
✅ Send gorgeous emails with drag-and-drop ease
✅ Stay on-brand without needing a designer
✅ Actually enjoy the process of building newsletters
This is Flodesk email marketing — and even my emails about shipping somehow look like they belong in a boutique.
Your Emails Deserve More Than Just "Functional"
Let’s be honest — your business isn’t cookie-cutter.
Your emails shouldn’t be either.
If you’re:
- A small biz owner who wants your emails to feel custom and elevated
- A service provider trying to stand out in inboxes that are overflowing
- A creative looking for the best email platform for aesthetic branding
➡️ Flodesk was built with you in mind.
It’s not just about how pretty your emails look (though yes — they’re stunning).
It’s about what they do for your brand and your bottom line.
Flodesk lets you:
- Create on-brand signup forms and pop-ups that actually convert
- Set up automated email workflows that feel personal, not robotic
- Build opt-in freebies, welcome sequences, and newsletters — all in one place
- Grow your list without paying more (yep — unlimited subscribers)
Beautiful emails. No chaos. No clunky tools.
Just your brand, showing up polished — every time.
💬 “You put way too much energy into your business to let your emails look like a CVS receipt.”
Why The Deception?
Not all email platforms are built with small business owners in mind.
Here’s how Flodesk vs. Mailchimp (or whoever you’re using now) actually stacks up — especially if you’re a solo entrepreneur, creative, or boutique brand trying to show up like a pro:
Feature | Flodesk | Mailchimp |
Designed for Non-Designers | ✅ Drag-and-drop, no stress | ⚠️ Limited flexibility, feels clunky |
Aesthetic Email Templates | ✅ Beautiful, modern, customizable | ⚠️ Dated or overly corporate vibes |
Brand Customization | ✅ Fonts, colors, layout = on point | ⚠️ Can feel stiff without design help |
Automation | ✅ Visual workflows you’ll actually use | ⚠️ Setup can feel overwhelming |
Pricing Simplicity | ✅ One flat rate (unlimited subs) | ❌ Price increases as your list grows |
Overall Vibe | ✨ Boutique brand energy | 🗃️ Spreadsheet energy |
💡 TLDR: Flodesk looks like your favorite brand’s IG feed.
The other platforms? They feel like taxes, spreadsheets, and startup dashboards from 2012.
What I’d Tell Any Small Biz Owner About Email
Email isn’t just another marketing task.
It’s your brand’s voice — the one thing that gets to show up in someone’s inbox on purpose.
If you’re sending clunky newsletters, outdated designs, or emails that scream “template,” it’s doing your business a disservice.
You deserve emails that look like you actually care.
And Flodesk makes that easy — without adding another stressful platform to your life.
If your business is giving main character energy…
Your emails should too.
