What is Email Warmup ROI?
Email warmup is the process of gradually building a new email account's sender reputation by sending and receiving emails before launching cold outreach. Without warmup, new accounts typically see 30-50% inbox placement. With proper warmup, that jumps to 85-95%. This calculator shows the dollar impact of that difference — more emails in the inbox means more replies, more deals, and more revenue.

Frequently Asked Questions
Warmup improves your inbox placement rate — the percentage of emails that land in the inbox instead of spam. More emails in the inbox means more people see your message, which means more replies, more meetings, and more closed deals. The calculator shows this funnel step by step.
New email accounts without warmup typically see 30-50% inbox placement for cold emails. This means half or more of your emails go directly to spam. With proper warmup, you can expect 85-95% inbox placement.
TrulyInbox warmup costs approximately $15 per mailbox per month. For a setup with 10 mailboxes, that's $150/month — which typically pays for itself within 1-2 days based on the additional revenue from improved deliverability.
A burned domain is one whose sender reputation has been damaged to the point where emails consistently land in spam. Without warmup, sending too much too fast from a new domain can burn it within weeks. Replacement means buying a new domain and starting over — wasting time and money.
The calculator uses industry-standard benchmarks as defaults (3% reply rate, 10% close rate, 85% warmed-up inbox rate). Your actual results depend on your email copy, targeting, offer, and other factors. Use the Advanced Settings to input your own numbers for a more accurate estimate.
Most email warmup takes 2-4 weeks to reach full sender reputation. During this time, TrulyInbox gradually increases sending volume and builds positive engagement signals. After warmup, ongoing maintenance keeps your reputation strong.
