Email marketing for authors, from the free book to release day.

Thunk Mail only does email, and we keep it simple enough that you can get back to writing. There’s no AI ghostwriter to bolt on and no add-ons to buy.

A real person answers on live chat, Monday to Friday. Or email support@thunkmail.com any time.

The people who built Thunk Mail answer your messages.

When you message us, it doesn’t go to an outside support team or a bot. It goes to the people who built Thunk Mail. If the answer is that the product should work better, we can change it.

  • Ask how to wire your signup form to BookFunnel
  • Live chat, Monday to Friday, 6:30am to 9:30pm PST
  • Email any time at support@thunkmail.com
  • Priority chat and email on Base
  • No chatbots, and no AI writing the replies

Here’s where you’ll build your release-day email.

  • Drag in your cover, a few lines and a button for each store. It looks right in Gmail, Apple Mail and Outlook.
  • Reports show which store each reader clicked.

Signup forms get their own page, so a reader can join from the back of your book and land straight on your download.
A Thunk Mail auto responder called Reader welcome, sending three emails after a reader joins the Readers list, with the wait before each email and how many readers viewed and clicked it
Three emails go out on their own after a reader joins: the free book, the story behind it, and where to start in the series.
