The software world is shifting. We’ve seen Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and more. Now comes a powerful new model—RaaS: Results as a Service. In the age of data and accountability, RaaS offers something that every marketer truly wants: actual results.
Unlike traditional SaaS, RaaS doesn’t just give you tools and walk away. It consolidates technology, strategy, and support to drive performance. For email marketing, where metrics like open rates, CTRs, and revenue growth are key indicators, this model helps transform tools into outcome-driven engines.
Businesses are no longer interested in standalone tools or platforms that require hours of configuration. They want platforms that support their long-term strategy and simplify campaign management, reducing operating expenses while boosting profitability.
RaaS also introduces better cost savings and better allocation of marketing budgets. Whether evaluating data from third-party vendors or proprietary workflows, companies now look at how service platforms impact operating results and financial performance.
Welcome to the RaaS Revolution—where Mailercloud is at the forefront.

What is RaaS (Results as a Service)?
Results as a Service (RaaS) is a service offering where companies no longer sell software based on features. Instead, they focus on delivering value in the form of measurable results. This revaluation of software models aligns perfectly with the modern demand for financial performance and accountability.
Key differences between SaaS and RaaS:
The RaaS model takes into account both non-GAAP financial measures and operating results to ensure every strategy leads to measurable impact. By integrating multiple data sources and streamlining automation, platforms like Mailercloud consolidate efforts and drive results.
RaaS platforms often report against directly comparable GAAP benchmarks and must track the timing and amount of campaign engagement to be fully accountable. These are insights typically shared in an annual report on Form 10-K.
Why RaaS Matters in Today’s Email Marketing World
The email marketing industry is more competitive than ever. Every quarter revenue report, every campaign, is scrutinized. Clients demand transparency, outcome-based tracking, and simplified execution. The RaaS model provides all of that—and more.
RaaS platforms like Mailercloud:
- Deliver value based on actual results, not just campaign sends
- Focus on reducing friction and cost savings
- Offer expert guidance with proprietary workflows and templates
- Optimize allocation of resources for higher returns
More importantly, RaaS acknowledges forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). It accounts for risks and uncertainties, enabling marketers to adjust strategy depending on future events.
Mailercloud’s methodology is aligned with accordance with GAAP and directly comparable GAAP indicators. Whether you’re aiming to increase engagement or improve valuation, a RaaS-based platform makes it easier to achieve and showcase those wins.

How to Transition from SaaS to RaaS
If you’re currently using an email platform that only gives you tools, it’s time to consider switching to one that delivers results.
Here’s how to start making the shift:
Step 1: Define Your Outcomes
What are you trying to achieve—more leads, higher engagement, better retention? Your platform should support those goals, not just offer templates.
Step 2: Choose a Platform that Aligns
Look for email tools like Mailercloud that:
- Offer predefined flows for your industry
- Provide analytics that guide decisions
- Focus on user success, not just product features
Step 3: Monitor & Optimize
Use the platform’s recommendations to run A/B tests, optimize content, and track your results weekly. Platforms with a RaaS mindset will help you grow over time—not just give you raw data.
Step 4: Lean on Support
Use the strategy sessions, support docs, and live help offered by the platform. A RaaS company is as invested in your success as you are.
The Future of RaaS in Email Marketing
The future of email marketing is data-driven, automated, and results-focused.
Platforms will no longer compete on “who has the most features,” but rather on:
- Who drives better ROI?
- Who simplifies strategy?
- Who helps marketers do more with less?
We expect to see more RaaS offerings in email platforms over the next few years. But at Mailercloud, we’re already there.
We believe email marketing should be stress-free, scalable, and successful—and that’s what we deliver.
