This quick guide and video show you how to set up Google Workspace mailboxes in seconds using Instantly.ai’s “Done-for-you” setup.

Purchase domains and mailboxes directly on Instantly.ai. After payment, they’re automatically created, connected, and DNS-configured. Within 12-24 hours, you’re ready to start warming up your email campaigns.

Already have backup domains? Check my guide to set them up manually.

Pros and cons of this approach

Pros
1) The "Done-for-you" (DFY) setup saves significant time, especially when setting up 20-30-50 mailboxes. Plus, you get G Suite emails, which have better deliverability by default—this can make a big difference.
2) The cost is only $5 per mailbox compared to $7 when purchasing directly from Google Workspace.
3) You don’t need to switch between multiple tools, making the process more streamlined.
Cons
1) These mailboxes are separate, you can't add them to your Google Workspace, sometimes it is needed due to company poilcy, or tax optimization, or anything else.
2) If you want to upload a sender’s user profile picture, you’ll still need to log in manually to each mailbox.
3) For tasks like changing passwords or canceling mailboxes, you’ll need to contact support.
4) You can’t add more than three mailboxes per domain.
