Email, SMS and WhatsApp Marketing Agency

For businesses with a contact list that is not being worked.
Direct messaging channels consistently deliver the highest return in any marketing mix when used properly. Most businesses either under-use them or blast everyone with the same message.

Quick answer

Digital FRK designs and runs email, SMS and WhatsApp marketing for brands with a contact list that isn’t being worked. We’re London-based and work across the UK, Europe, the US and the Gulf. We set up the WhatsApp Business API, Klaviyo or HubSpot, then build segmented, automated flows that earn revenue from customers you already have.

  • Channels: email, SMS, WhatsApp Business API
  • Platforms: Klaviyo, HubSpot, Zoho
  • From: $1,050 one-time setup
  • Languages: English and Arabic templates
