Bulletin for entrepreneurs & new ventures
Build your audience before you build your budget.
Launch announcements, product updates, early-access invitations, and milestone news for the people who believed in you first — without a monthly software bill before you have revenue.
For founders and side projects
Your first hundred believers deserve to hear from you — not from an algorithm.
The waitlist is open. The beta is live. You hit your first hundred customers. The launch is next Tuesday.
Early-stage ventures communicate in bursts — a launch, a milestone, an update — with quiet months in between. Paying a monthly subscription during the quiet months makes no sense. Bulletin charges only when you send, so your email list can grow from day one without a recurring bill following it.
Use Bulletin to send:
- Launch and waitlist announcements
- Product updates and changelogs
- Early-access and beta invitations
- Milestone and progress updates
- Founder notes and behind-the-scenes stories
- Customer offers and referral invitations
Send around launches and milestones — or settle into a monthly founder update.
Email without the marketing machinery.
Write a clean text update or import a designed announcement from Canva, send from your own domain, and see exactly who opened and clicked.
Add your co-founder. Add your first hire.
Bring on collaborators as you grow, with no per-seat fee standing between your team and your audience. Unlimited team members. No per-seat fees.
Already design in Canva?
Bring your existing Canva design into Bulletin with one click, or import HTML emails created elsewhere. Then preview, test, and send without rebuilding your design.
What it costs
No fixed costs before you have revenue.
Bulletin never charges based on the number of contacts you store. Your cost is based on the number of emails you send.
A venture with 1,000 subscribers sending a monthly update uses about 12,000 sends per year — roughly $30 annually.
Your list can grow without automatically creating a larger platform bill. Start with 500 sends free — then 5,000 sends for $10, 50,000 for $90, or 500,000 for $800.
Help when you need it
Start with real support.
Bulletin offers personalized onboarding to help you import contacts, set up your account, and begin sending. Ongoing email and chat support are always included — never gated behind a higher-priced plan.
Onboarding and support are included from day one — even while you're still on free sends.
Common questions
Do we need marketing or design experience to use Bulletin?
No. Bulletin is designed to make routine email communication simple. Create your message, choose your recipients, and send — without building automated campaigns or learning a complicated email marketing platform.
How much does Bulletin cost for an early-stage venture?
A list of 1,000 subscribers receiving a monthly update uses about 12,000 sends per year — roughly $30 annually. Your first 500 sends are free, so most founders launch their list at no cost.
Is Bulletin right for a full marketing operation?
Probably not — and we'll say so. Bulletin has no automation builders, drip sequences, or e-commerce funnels. If you need those, a traditional marketing platform will serve you better. If you need a direct, affordable line to your audience, Bulletin is built for exactly that.
Can multiple people share the account?
Yes. Bulletin includes unlimited team members with no per-seat fees. Give each person appropriate role-based access and collaborate through one account.
Can we use a Canva design or an email created elsewhere?
Yes. Import an existing Canva design with one click, or bring in an HTML email created elsewhere. Then preview, test, and send without rebuilding your design. You can also create a clean, simple email directly in Bulletin.
What can we see after sending?
Bulletin provides essential reporting through a straightforward dashboard. After each send, review delivery rates, opens, and clicks to understand how people engaged with your message.
