Using More Than One Email
Why You Need More Than One Email
Using just one email is like having only one fishing pole in a big lake. You can catch some fish, but not as many as you could. Here's why having many emails helps:
1. Send More Emails Safely
Each email can only send a few messages each day. With more emails, you can send more messages without getting in trouble.
Example: If one email can send 50 messages a day, then 5 emails can send 250 messages a day!
2. Keep Your Main Email Safe
If one email gets marked as "junk mail," your other emails stay safe. This protects you.
It's like not putting all your toys in one bag. If one bag gets lost, you still have toys in the other bags!
3. Try Different Ways of Writing
You can try different ways of writing with different emails to see what works best.
Example: Email A can use grown-up words, while Email B uses kid-friendly words. Then you can see which one gets more answers.
What is Email Taking Turns?
Taking turns is a simple way to share work among your emails. It's like when kids take turns on the swing.
How Taking Turns Works
- You have many emails (let's say 4 emails)
- When you send messages, Alex goes through each email one by one
- Message 1 goes from Email A, Message 2 from Email B, and so on
- After using all emails, it starts again with Email A
Good Things About Taking Turns
- Everyone gets a fair share: Each email sends about the same number of messages
- Looks less fishy: No single email looks weird by sending too many messages
- Easy to manage: Alex handles the turns for you, so you don't have to think about it
How Many Emails Do You Need?
The number of emails you need depends on how many messages you want to send:
| Daily Messages | Emails You Need |
|---|---|
| 1-50 | 1 email |
| 51-150 | 2-3 emails |
| 151-300 | 3-6 emails |
| 300+ | 6+ emails |
If you follow the safe limit of 30-50 emails per account per day, you can calculate how many email accounts you need:
- For 100 daily emails: 100 ÷ 30 = 3.3, so you need at least 4 email accounts
- For 200 daily emails: 200 ÷ 30 = 6.7, so you need at least 7 email accounts
- For 500 daily emails: 500 ÷ 30 = 16.7, so you need at least 17 email accounts
Always stay on the safe side by having more accounts than you think you need!
Setting Up Many Emails in Alex
Setting up is easy:
- Go to Accounts
- Click Add Gmail Account
- Connect each email to Alex
- Turn on Warm Up a.k.a "Taking Turns"
- Alex will automatically go through your emails when sending
Good Ways to Use Many Emails
- Warm up all emails: Make sure every new email gets warmed up first
- Look the same: Use similar signatures and company information in all emails
- Use similar addresses: All emails should be from your company if possible (like name1@company.com, name2@company.com)
- Make them seem real: Each email should look like it comes from a real person
- Check all inboxes: Look for answers in all your emails, or let Alex collect them for you
Questions People Ask
Can I use free emails (Gmail, Outlook, etc.)?
You can, but emails from your own company look more grown-up and work better.
Should all my emails be from the same person?
No, it's better to create emails for different team members (real or made-up). This looks more normal than one person having many emails.
What if I only have one company name?
That's okay! You can create many emails under one company name, like:
Remember
Having many emails isn't about sending junk mail to more people. It's about reaching the right number of people while keeping your emails out of the junk folder. Always try to send good emails, not just lots of emails!
