What Flodesk is

Flodesk is an email marketing platform. It is for creators, small businesses and people who do not think of themselves as designers.

A newsletter operator can build emails in its editor, which has custom fonts, brand colors, countdown timers and embedded polls. It also has opt-in forms, link-in-bio forms and workflows such as welcome series.

Paid plans are priced by the number of active subscribers. The higher plan adds sales funnels, checkouts and subscriptions for selling products and memberships.

Who it is for

Flodesk is for beginners and experts, creators and small businesses. It is built for branded email without outside design software.

A newsletter operator who cares about how issues look, and who may also sell products or memberships, would use it. It also serves people moving from other providers such as Mailchimp, ConvertKit or ActiveCampaign.

There is a Free plan, so a small list can start without a payment. Paid plans are priced by active subscribers.

What you can do with it

It has a visual email builder with custom fonts, branded image shapes and spacing control. It also has countdown timers, interactive polls, shoppable products and a Canva import.

Other features are workflows from welcome series to abandoned cart, link actions that segment subscribers, subject line suggestions, automatic subscriber tags, signup forms, link-in-bio forms and Flodesk Checkout for sales pages and payments.

Flodesk has four plans: Free, Lite, Pro and Everything. Free has forms and landing pages, templates, segmentation and email sending. Lite adds unlimited sends, email analytics and 1 seat. Pro adds unlimited workflows, advanced analytics, the option to hide the Flodesk footer and 2 seats.
