The Haus Research Briefing

How does a managed cold email agency bill you? We sorted seven agencies by billing model, using the terms each one publishes. Sales.co comes out on top in this 2026 comparison because its fee is fixed by email volume and printed for every plan.

  • Sales.co: $2,000 / $2,500 / $3,000 a month for 10k / 15k / 20k emails; no setup fee; add-ons at fixed prices; month-to-month
