REVIEWS

In their own words.

Build something with us
Our main worry with agencies was brand voice. Nobody had ever gotten it right, and it always sounded off. Well Copy got it right within the first few emails. They went through our ad creatives, learned our tone, and matched it perfectly. Working with them is smooth. We always know what's happening, approvals are simple, and email is no longer something we stress about. The results are clear: email and SMS now bring in close to 40% of our total store revenue. We've already referred Well Copy to more than a dozen other brands.
PawpyFounder
What I value most about the Well Copy team is that they focus on results. They talk about them, care about them, and deliver them. No excuses, no justifications. They've grown our real results and real revenue from email.
GainsCEO
They understood our brand voice much faster than I expected, and their recent designs have been excellent. We now use them on our social media too. The team replies quickly, brings ideas to the table, and knows our niche better than most. Over 40% of our total revenue now comes from email, and I no longer have to manage it. I know it's in good hands.
Forest GunkCEO
To say the least, Max and his team delivered. All of our Klaviyo metrics have improved, ranging from deliverability to revenue per recipient. He is thoughtful, ethical, and is always trying to demo new technologies and platforms to help bolster email and sms performance. Most importantly, Max cultivates his relationships with his clients, and I am happy to say that he has become a good friend of mine. As you can probably tell, I, along with the rest of our team at LIVFRESH, plan to work with Max for a long time to come.

Frequently asked questions.

What stops you blasting discounts to inflate your cut?

The cap, mostly. Once we hit it, another send earns us nothing — so there's no upside in burning your list. Beyond that, a torched list means you leave in month four, and we'd rather have you for three years. If you ever think we're over-sending, say so and we'll cut the calendar.

Who actually does the work — will I get a junior?

No. We're small on purpose. The people on your first call are the people writing your emails. That's the main reason we only take a few brands at a time.

You're not in my timezone. How does that work?

We overlap with US mornings and reply within a working day. Everything lives in writing — the calendar, the briefs, the reasoning — so you're never waiting on a call to know what's happening. Most clients end up preferring it to chasing someone for a meeting.

What happens to the work if I leave?

It's built inside your Klaviyo account, so it's already yours. No export fee, no handover charge, nothing held hostage. Cancel whenever — the flows keep running.

We already have flows built. Do you start over?

Usually not. Most accounts don't need rebuilding, they need rewriting and pruning. We'll tell you honestly which of yours is worth keeping.

How long before I see anything?

Your core flows are completed within seven days of kickoff: copy, design, build and QA. They go live after your approval. Campaigns and testing follow through the rest of the first month; performance is reviewed over time, not promised in advance.

What access do you need?

A limited-role Klaviyo login and read access to Shopify. Nothing else, and it comes off the day you ask.
