Mailshake

Perfect Tool For Email Outreach

Comentarios: It's the perfect cold email outreach program that is really easy to setup and offers better deliverability than using traditional email marketing software.

Puntos a favor:

Mailshake is my go to tool for doing cold email outreach. It's very easy to setup and use and allows multi-step followup sequences for your email campaigns. They also have an email scrubbing tool you can run your lists through to ensure that you do not get a high bounce rate and hurt your email sending repuation. It doesn't have some of the bells and whistles that some similar tools offer but it's easy to use and works perfectly every time.

Contras:

You are limited to Gmail and Gsuite email accounts at the moment, would be great to expand to other popular email platforms.

Great product & great customer support

Comentarios: Outstanding. It's easy to use and honestly the customer service team goes above and beyond for you.

Puntos a favor:

It's just simple to use. Having used other software for cold-emailing that was cumbersome, MailShake is a breeze. It is extremely important, however, to note that the onboarding/customer service is outstanding as well.

Contras:

It's expensive if you have a medium or large team - so I'm worried about scaling costs.

Terrible Customer Service

Comentarios: Terrible customer service. Never seen a professional company have a blanket no-refund policy. They've now moved to an annual only plan. Just revenue grabbing and honestly not ok.

Puntos a favor:

In theory great to have everything in one place, if the product itself actually works for you.

Contras:

I realised within a couple days that the platform was not as powerful / not as well built as I thought it was from the demo I was given. Make sure to be as diligent during the demo as possible!I'm sure it works for some people, but there are bugs and definitely significant improvements that could be made.They've now moved to an annual only plan with a no refund policy. So after I quickly realised the product wasn't for me I asked for a refund but they refused. Not ever seen a professional company do this. Just seems like a revenue grabbing strategy in an effort to reduce churn.Pretty poor form as I've now spent ~$1k on a product I will not use.

Simple and Effective Cold Email Tool

Comentarios: My experience has been great using Mailshake

Puntos a favor:

I like the simplicity of the platform and it's effectiveness

Contras:

Doesn't offer an agency level account and the ability to manage multiple accounts with one single login

Strong Product for Email Marketing

Puntos a favor:

Mailshake is an easy and intuitive tool to use for email marketing campaigns. Templates and email sequences are easy to set up and they have all the tools you need to get started and run the campaign from a single platform.

Contras:

Mailshake's spam compliance is very strict. Even compared to other industry-accepted tools, Mailshake classifies more emails as risky.

It's the support and education of Mailshake that makes it

Comentarios: Overall really happy to have joined Mailshake

Puntos a favor:

The Mailshake team have been great in providing lots of support to give my email campaigns as great of a chance as possible.

Contras:

There wasn't anything that I dislike about Mailshake currently.

Mailshake Is your go to for sending Emails to Prospects

Puntos a favor:

I love the interface of the platform. I did not spend up to 20 minutes before I knew how to set up campaigns, sequences and whatnot.

Contras:

when sending out emails, be careful about the daily sending limit.

Awesome!

Comentarios: I'm not exaderating that the money we spent last year on mailshake that we have 100X our return on investment. I highly recommend their email marketing solution.

Puntos a favor:

Mailshake is easy to use! I love the fact that there is very little learning curve. You can upload your list and start a campaign in minutes. I will say that this was single handily the best purchase of all the software we purchased last year.

Contras:

I have nothing bad to say. They are great from the software to support. I love their software!

Simple, affordable, highly effective email marketing software

Puntos a favor:

I love that I can easily duplicate and send emails to large lists without overcomplicating things, and also send using Gmail aliases. Mailshake allows me to personalize emails for myself and other individuals on my team, and track responses, with simple rules to avoid a spammy feeling. Our open rates are through the roof, and emails are sent successfully. I also really appreciate the alerts when I am sending to new lists, to avoid sending to people who may already be in another email drip or have previously unsubscribed or converted.

Contras:

I honestly can't think of anything. I wish all software worked this well and as easily.

Best Tool for Email Automation

Comentarios: Overall the tool is best for email automation and best suite for small to medium-size businesses.

Puntos a favor:

We are using this tool for automated emails drip-feed. I love this tool because we can use the maximum levels of personalization in our email. Mailshake is smart enough to stop the emails sequences on any action taken by us or email receiver. We can create templates for future use.

Contras:

They should add more detailed reporting for the campaigns would really help to understand the analytics and also they should add some templates in system.

Using Mailshake to grow my business.

Comentarios: My overall experience with Mailshake is very positive.

Puntos a favor:

The staff is very helpful, and the process is smooth.

Contras:

Not sure that my emails are effective as they could be.

Exceeded My Expectations By Far!

Comentarios: The MailShake team was responsive to all of my questions. There were a couple of glitches with me thinking that a support session had been reserved and it didn't actually get onto the MailShake calendar. The e-mail support was timely, but sometimes I wished I could simply call a help-line or log into a live chat immediately to get a simple question answered a bit more quickly compared to e-mails or setting up a video conferencing session that are sometimes not available for a few days from when you log in for help. I was glad to find out today that live support is offered at 2:00 p.m. Eastern time every Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Wish I had seen that feature on the Home Page sooner.

Puntos a favor:

Cold-prospecting e-mailing is a complicated undertaking, but the MailShake team made it very understandable even for a beginner. By following their recommendations of taking out logos on the "first touch" e-mail, we were able to achieve a 72.5% open rate. Among the people who opened the e-mail, 10.8% completed the survey in a hyperlink we had in the e-mail text. Research I have done before said that we would be lucky if only 10% even OPENED the e-mail (again, we achieved a 72.5% open rate). The MailShake cleaning function was also a great feature of the software. We did lose a lot of our initial list of potential e-mail addresses, but by using the cleaning option, we achieved only a 2.5% bounce rate.

Contras:

For a beginner, some of the features of the software are not completely intuitive. I did require direct MailShake support instead of just watching video tutorials to make sure I was doing everything correctly...and their video conferencing coaching was right on target. I would have goofed up right out of the shoot by including logos in the "first-touch" e-mail text since logos make the e-mail go out in a protected view in which the recipient would have to click twice just to see the logos (and the logos are included in the survey hyperlink in the email anyway) and logos can drop e-mails right into SPAM. It took awhile for me to convince my client that we HAD to take their logos out, but they finally agreed and you can see the great results we got with 72.5% open rate.

An incredible product!

Comentarios: Productivity

Puntos a favor:

I had no idea that something like this even existed. I have to often do cold outreach to the journalist community to feature some of our organization's writings. This tool makes doing this task such a breeze! The ability to use mail merge and auto-follow ups scheduled at specific times of my liking is simply genius. The tool offers tremendous flexibility in terms of letting one respond based on recipient behavior. The tool also offers statistics at every stage of the campaign giving insights such as how many people opened my email, clicked my links as well as unsubscribed. MailShake also offers templates which have been tested and known to elicit responses. This is probably one of the most well-designed tools I have ever used.

Contras:

I don't think there is anything I dislike about this product. A small glitch I observed was that it counts out of office responses too as a lead, but that is a minor quibble I am willing to overlook. The tool is purely meant for cold outreach and it functions beautifully as any can expect it to.

Doe's exactly what it should, and more...

Comentarios: As stated above- we use it for cold email outreach and automated followups

Puntos a favor:

Incredibly easy to use Intuitive interface Next level design Here's the thing- we use Mailshake when we're doing email outreach of our blog content 99% of the time, we're emailing someone cold, and letting them know about an article that our research suggest they might like etc etc Because of the volume of outreach, we might email a prospect twice by accident right? Not with Mailshake Why? Because it'll track all previous interactions and emails sent, and warn you that you already have a relationship with them It gets better... It lets you know when they open It lets you send automated followups based on timing and logic Better still? It has an inbuilt 'spam filter' so it'll help you improve your outreach emails

Contras:

Honestly, and this is struggling to find a flaw? We usually write an article one month, and then promote it for the next 2 This means we have 30 days out of 90 where we don't use the product, but still pay for it I haven't even checked if its possible, but not being billed during those periods/pausing the account etc would be awesome, but honestly- the tools so good we pay when we dont use it

Mailshake is essential for our business!

Comentarios: Highly recommend

Puntos a favor:

We couldn’t run our business without Mailshake. The software is intuitive and the team is constantly adding new features and integrations. Set up is easy and if you follow [SENSITIVE CONTENT] advice you will be emailing like a pro!

Contras:

More analytics and reports for each campaign.

Great tool for outreach email campaigns

Comentarios: My overall experience with Mailshake has been great, I use it on a monthly basis to run outreach email campaigns. I recommend it to partnerships and business development teams that are looking to scale their outreach.

Puntos a favor:

Mailshake is a great tool to use for outreach email campaigns. It's very easy to set up and deploy campaigns. Also, it's very affordable and provides good amount of customization. Finally, the user experience is very intuitive and gives you valuable tips and step-by-step guidance.

Contras:

The analytics is not the greatest. Even though you can see the main stats per campaign, I wish they had more advanced functionalities to compare the campaigns' performance and quickly identify bottlenecks and gain opportunities.

Agency's review of Mailshake

Comentarios: Overall it was a good experience great solution for solo users.

Puntos a favor:

It was really easy to get to grips with Mailshake and launch a campaign quickly.

Contras:

Reporting was very basic with not much functionality especially when it came to giving reports to clients.

Best email outreach/cold-emailing tool to use.

Comentarios: Love it, love the UI and was really easy to setup and run!!

Puntos a favor:

I try and use several email outreach/cold-emailing tool like lemmilist, autoklose and others...but Mailshake is the best one Why? - Easy to use - Easy to config - Can track openner - Test AB - Automate all the process and the follow up! Save alot of time!!!!! You import your list, setup 123 and run! The more hard part is writte the emails!!

Contras:

The pricing is kind expensive. Would be nice is more cheapper because other people in the world should use this tool!! Also i do suggest they traslate the site to other languages

Bad refund policy

Comentarios: Overall ok.

Puntos a favor:

A simple interface that allows you to do what the tool is made for : sending emails.

Contras:

Mails are send through Google mail servers. You are restricted with the number of mails you can send per day. There is no refund available when you cancel the software. I didn't use the tool for at least two months and asked if it would be possible to refund me the money they recently charged for this month January which wasn't possible.

Cold Outreach made a little easier

Puntos a favor:

It took me a while to get the purpose of this but I'm glad I invested in this. It's a great way to reach out to others and get potential leads. There are some really handy integrations that make using it even easier. There are helpful videos to help you learn how to use the program.

Contras:

It took me a while to figure out how I could use this in my service based business. It wasn't as easy to set up my email since I'm not using G Suite.

Simple and easy to use.

Puntos a favor:

Not complicated to use. Was able to setup in 30 mins. Great for outreach emails and I can even schedule follow up emails. this app is simply straightforward.

Contras:

There's nothing to dislike with something so easy to use.

Fantastic app for email outreach

Comentarios: Successful email outreach campaigns

Puntos a favor:

MailShake is a great email outreach app for startup founders, sales representatives and marketers. It's powerful yet easy to use, with thoughtful features too.

Contras:

The reporting is simple and to the point, which might not be suitable for larger teams that need more robust insights into the performance of their SDRs.

Best cold emailing software I've tried

Comentarios: Simple to use and very useful tool for any entrepreneur.

Puntos a favor:

This is exactly the tool I need to do outreach for content promotion. Super easy to use and the price is right.

Contras:

More than likely the service is great but it is limited to only Gmail accounts. There is no way to use it with Exchange, SMTP or IMAP.

Fantastic customer support!

Comentarios: When real trouble starts, you find out what the *real* customer experience is. We ran into what turned out to be a complicated Google issue (Google was labeling anything Google originating sent from our domain as Spam - including any @google emails sent to us!) Founder of Mailshake, jumped in to help us isolate what we were seeing and that helped us immensely with Google's escalation to fix our challenge. I have only had a handful of CEO/CoFounder/Founders jump in to help a customer - it is very rare. This speaks volumes about the customer fanaticism behind the Mailshake app!

Puntos a favor:

From the beginning Mailshake has been easy to approach, easy to get running and straight-forward to make a part of our processes. Customer support is world-class.

Contras:

I am all about balanced reviews but like I shared with my colleague, "I cannot find anything I don't like about our using Mailshake." It is a great app and does exactly what they purport to do.

We use Mailshake for building and tracking outreach campaigns.

Puntos a favor:

I like the simplicity of the tool and the cost compared to other email and lead gen tools. And we super love the auto-follow up features. We decided to go with MailShake and DivvyHQ and ditch Buzzstream for outreach emailing campaigns mostly due to the cost, the cost per month for MailShake is a far better monthly cost than for Buzzstream, especially since we do a lot of custom outreach. But we also decided to switch to MailShake because of its simple, easy to use interface for email outreach tracking.

Contras:

It doesn't have all the same features as Buzzstream, so you can't generate email addresses or build lists within the tool based on keyword research, so it's definitely a lighter weight tool, but useful in the overall link building toolkit.
