Conditional Sql Insert

Here is my situation

I have a table named CustomerOrderDate with the following fields (sql server 2012)

CustomerID      int
OrderDate Date

Every night CustomerOrderDate table gets updated with a listing of customers that have placed orders during that day
(this table has like the last 5 years of order dates)

We would like to send an email to the customer once every 30 days (regardless of number of orders placed)

Once an email is sent an entry is written to a table named CustomerSentEmail with following fields

CustomerID int
EmailSentDate date

I need to write a query that writes an entry (with customerid and current date) to a table named CustomerScheduleEmailSchedule for either of the following

if there is a customer id match between CustomerOrderDate and CustomerSentEmail tables that has a max date that is 30 days or earlier than current date

if there is not a customer id match at between CustomerOrderDate and CustomerSentEmail tables
(this means no email has been sent)

For example
If customerorderdate table has following data,

CustomerID OrderDate
1 4/30/2014
1 5/30/2014
1 6/30/2014
1 7/30/2014
2 7/30/2014
3 7/15/2014
3 7/30/2014

If CustomerSentEmail table has following data,
CustomerID EmailSentDate
1        4/30/2014
1        5/30/2014
1 6/30/2014
3 7/15/2014

Assuming current date is 7/30/2014

The query should insert the following into CustomerScheduleEmailSchedule

CustomerID EmailScheduleDate
1        7/30/2014 (because last email was sent 30 days ago)
2        7/30/2014 (because no customer id match)

(no Entry for customer id 3 because last email was sent 15 days ago so not time)

Kyle Abrahams, PMP

-- get the max email sent per customer
; with CTE as
(
select
CustomerID , max(EmailSentDate) ESD
CustomerSentEmail
group by customerID
)

--insert the customerId and today
insert into CustomerScheduleEmailSchedule
select cod.customerid, getdate()
from customerorderdate cod
left join CTE c on cod.CustomerId = c.CustomerID
where
--where there is no match found
c.CustomerID is null or
-- or the greatest date is less than 30 or equal to 30 days ago.
c.ESD <= dateadd(d, getdate(), -30)
