Hiya

I'm consulting for Babestation and we've been rolling our own email using Interspire Email Marketer and SMTP.com and not getting the results we want so wanted to move to an ESP. I'd love to use mail chimp, but they won't accept any adult content. 

Now, it's important to realise there is adult content and there is adult content. Everyone in the UK knows Babestation and it is a trusted and established brand. Running for 10 years now. We want to sent legal, white hat emails to our existing customers and start proper double opt in email harvesting for newsletters etc. 

The only ESP I could find prepared to work with us so far is Lyris, which while cool looking, is going to work out very expensive. Also, the 12 month contract is a problem as we would need to trial a service to make sure it delivered ROI. 

So, lovely UKNMers, are there any ESPs on the list that would be prepared to work with us? Or do any of you know anyone that would be? More than happy to not send any pictures in the mail stronger than page 3. The email strategy will be acquisition, retention, referral, win back and up/cross sells to other products. This will be for 3 main membership sites and a webcam site. 

I'd appreciate any leads so I can get more than one pitch in to help us make a decision. 

Thanks in advance for any help.
