How using multiple email delivery vendors can cut your costs 

Save on your marketing messages

Splitting-out your email communications across multiple systems means you can save on expense for marketing messages by adopting a lower-tier system for those campaigns.

Keeping your use of top-tier, and more costly, systems for the likes of your transactional messages only (which will garner a higher engagement rate) means you get the benefits of the cost-cutting whilst knowing your comms are still in good hands. 

You can balance your costs of email marketing more effectively by using different ESPs or SMTPs for different audiences or email types.

This approach means balancing the sending costs of your various systems per segment or email type in order to spread your costs and balance your budgets. 

Furthermore, If you have pristine emails, top-tier can also mean cheap.

Amazon SES ensures high delivery rates at low costs. It is, however, quite strict when it comes to complaints and bounce rates.

It might be an issue for marketers to use Amazon SES for every user and every campaign, and this is where utilizing multiple delivery vendors shines.

Use Amazon SES for your engaged users, and employ a less strict vendor for your other, less engaged users.
