We built Bulletin because the existing tools were broken.

Bulletin is an email tool for community organizations, priced per send rather than per contact. Our mission is simple: keeping a community informed shouldn't require a marketing department, or a marketing department's budget.

Our story

The paperboy never charged you on days there was no news.

Before email marketing became filled with automation, funnels, AI assistants, and hundreds of features, communicating with a community was simple. Schools, faith communities, restaurants, nonprofits, and town halls sent updates when they had something worth sharing.

Somewhere along the way, the tools stopped serving those organizations. We kept meeting nonprofits paying over $100 a month to store a contact list they emailed once a quarter. Restaurants renting software they used twelve times a year. Volunteer-run groups rationing logins because their plan only came with five.

The problem wasn't the organizations. It was the pricing model. Contact-based billing punishes exactly the groups email should serve best: the ones with big communities and occasional news.

So we built Bulletin around a different promise. Pay only when you send. When you have news, deliver it. When you don't, owe nothing.

The local paperboy delivered the paper when there was something worth delivering. That's the idea behind Bulletin.

Our values

What we're here to do.

Communities deserve to be informed.

A school that can reach every family, a nonprofit that can reach every supporter, a town that can reach every resident. That's the work Bulletin exists to support.

Anyone should be able to send.

The person sending is often a volunteer with twenty other jobs. Keeping people informed shouldn't require learning a marketing platform first.

Reach shouldn't depend on budget.

The organizations with the most people to reach are often the ones with the least to spend. Pricing by list size gets that exactly backwards.
