About Keith Rainville

Twenty years. Multiple companies. One obsession: the list.

I'm Keith Rainville — founder of EmailClik, host of Unlimited Leads, and the person behind KJR Digital Marketing. I partner with the tools I actually use every day (Blotato & Instantly). This is the short version of how I got here and what I'm doing now.

The Story

How I got here.

I didn't learn this stuff from a course. I learned it by starting companies — some that flew, some that crashed — and being the one who had to figure every piece out myself. Server setups. Domain reputation. Funnel math. Copy that actually sold. Paid traffic that didn't hemorrhage money. Affiliate programs that people actually wanted to promote.

My path started in the early 2000s. Over the next two decades I founded, co-founded, and operated multiple ventures across digital marketing, software, and consumer products. Some of them grew big. Some taught me expensive lessons. All of them came back to the same core skill: building lists of people who wanted to hear from me, and turning those lists into revenue.

That's not a slogan. It's the thing. Every business I've ever been part of that worked — worked because we had a list. Every one that struggled — struggled because we didn't. Email list. Customer list. Prospect list. Buyer list. It's all the same skill.

Somewhere along the way I got tired of stitching together eight different tools to run a simple lead-gen operation. So I built my own: EmailClik — a 10-in-1 suite for enrichment, extraction, verification, cold email, chatbots, and more. Today it's a multi-million dollar SaaS and I white-label it for agencies who want to skip the decade of infrastructure work I did.

For the tools I don't build myself, I run a tight stack of platforms I actually use and partner with — Blotato for AI content production and Instantly for high-volume sender infrastructure and warmup. When I recommend something on this site, it's because it's wired into my own workflow.

And because I got a lot of questions about how I do it, I finally opened up the playbook. Unlimited Leads on Skool is where I teach everything — the list-building, the email, the copy, the funnels, the paid traffic. Not theory. The stuff I actually deploy for clients.

That's the whole story. Twenty years. Several companies. One obsession. If any of that lines up with what you're trying to build, let's talk.

Clients first. Always.

If I can't make you money, I don't take the engagement. Period.

Full-stack, not specialist.

I've owned every link in the marketing chain. That means fewer handoffs and less stuff getting lost.

Numbers, not vibes.

Lists, opens, clicks, calls, closes. We optimize what we can count.

Companies

Receipts, not rhetoric.
