CPM = Cost Per Thousand messages
Specific Domains
The email lists we host typically use the domain - Goozie.com,
such as @goozie.com. The "Specific Domain"
feature allows you to select your preferred domain name, for example:
whatever@listname.yourcompany.com.
**Note...in order for us to setup a specific domain,
we will need the assistance of your domain hosting provider, to
do a DNS entry for this domain.
Specific Domains cost $50 setup fee for the Basic Plus and
Bronze packages, and are included with all other packages. We will
waive this fee if you purchase the Specific
Domain when you first open your account.
Test Lists
The "test lists" are offered with every package -except-
the Basic and Basic Plus packages and have a maximum membership
of five (5) test email addresses. They are designed to help you
evaluate message formatting before mailing to your actual email
list.
Note: test messages are included in your package messages allowed
total.
Unsubscribe links at the bottom
All of your email recipients in your mailing list will have detailed
subscribe and unsubscribe information posted clearly at the bottom
of every email. This allows for ease of subscription and unsubscription
for the recipients and is a requirement by SKL Services, Inc. (Mailing List Company) on
ALL email lists.

Payment
For the Basic, Basic Plus, Bronze and Silver packages, we require
credit card payment (Visa, MasterCard, AMEX) Bank Wire Transfer
or PayPal payment prior to any list being sent (including
setup fee).
For the Gold, Platinum and Diamond packages, we accept purchase
orders (North American companies only), Bank Wire Transfers, cashiers
check, money order and/or PayPal payments and all payments are
required PRIOR to any mailing being sent. We offer discounted
rates for long-term contracts, please contact
us for more information.
For all payment types, we will email you a statement at the end
of the mailing that details your usage and costs for that mailing,
including any additional minimum fees that apply. Please note that
we do not send statement by standard postal mail.
If your account is paid by credit card, we charge your card automatically
prior to each mailing. Payment for purchase order, Bank Wire
Transfers, cashiers check, money order or PayPal account(s) is/are
due prior to email list being sent. Please also note that
set-up fees are non-refundable.
**VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: Please allow 48-72 hours for your
list(s) to be sent out after payment has been received. The
list must be imported, verified and cleaned prior to the actual
mailing and scheduled with the list administrator. This takes time
and we do appreciate your understanding. We want your list campaign
to be as successful as possible.
Message Volume: Size and Quantity
In listserv terms, message volume is a factor of both the
actual number of messages you send, and the average size (in kb)
of those messages.
The mailing prices above include a Specific number of messages
and assume an average message size of 12-14kb. Please note: if your
total message volume exceeds this amount during a mailing-either
due to message quantity or size, or both-your total bill for that
month will be higher than the package amount listed.
If your message volume exceeds the amount included in your package,
you will be charged for the extra mail at the effective "cost
per thousand" (CPM) of your package. The rates for 12-14kb
messages are as follows: Basic $10, Basic Plus $7, Bronze $5, Silver
$4; Gold $3; Platinum $2; Diamond $1.
Rates for messages averaging more than 14kb follow a sliding scale
based on the effective CPM rates in calculated increments. For example,
messages with an average monthly size of 20kb sent with a Platinum
package are charged at $4 per thousand; if the monthly size were
25kb, the charge would be $4.50 per thousand.
Example #1: 200,000 messages sent with a Gold package, with
an average message size of 8kb. The first 150,000 messages are included
in the fee of $399.95. The balance of 50,000 messages costs $150
(50,000 messages @ $3 CPM). Total bill for the month is $549.95.
Example #2: 370,000 messages sent with a Platinum package,
with an average message size of 20kb. The first 300,000 messages
are included in the monthly fee of $599.95. The balance of 70,000
messages costs $280 (70,000 messages @ $4 CPM). Total bill for the
month is $879.95.
Changing or Modifying Packages
If you are sending out a mailing on a "monthly basis"
and have signed up with us for a monthly mailing package and your
messaging requirements change over time, you may switch to a higher
or lower package. Please note that such changes will take effect
during your next billing cycle, not the current month in
which you request the new plan.
To switch to a new package, or to modify your existing one, please
contact an SKL Services, Inc. representative at (281) 756-9800 -or-
Toll Free 1-888-SKL-6864.
Contracts
All of our plans listed above are for one-time mailings.
We do however offer "on-going" mailings at a discounted
rate. This is a fabulous program if you have a list that you want
to send mailings to every month, for 3 straight months, etc.
Please contact
us if you would like to discuss setting up an on-going mailing
list program.
Please make sure to read our Usage
Policy and review our
Service Agreement.
