Flodesk is an email marketing platform designed for creators and small businesses, featuring designer-quality email templates and flat-rate pricing regardless of list size.
Flodesk is an email marketing company headquartered in San Francisco that was founded in 2018 with a specific and deliberate design philosophy: build the most visually beautiful email marketing tool for creators, photographers, small business owners, and entrepreneurs who are deeply invested in brand aesthetics and find that the generic, corporate-feeling templates available in traditional email marketing platforms undermine rather than enhance their brand presentation. Flodesk bootstrapped to a multi-million dollar revenue base without external funding before raising a growth investment, growing primarily through word-of-mouth referrals from creatives in photography, wedding, interior design, fashion, and artisan business communities who share the platform as a creator-to-creator recommendation.
