HeraldSales outreach

Thoughtful outreach, from first search to first reply.

Herald helps a sales team reach the right people. It finds and researches prospects, prepares email sequences for the team to approve, sends them at a considerate pace, and organises the replies so people can focus on the conversations.

From  A member of your teamSubject  A thought on onboarding your new team

Hello Ms. Reyes,

I came across the news that your company is opening two new regional offices this year, and the hiring that comes with it.

We help growing teams bring new colleagues up to speed, and I thought a short introduction might be useful. Would a brief call next week be of interest?

Every email carries your postal address and a clear way to unsubscribe.

An example email. The opening line is personal; the rest is the text your team approved.

How it works

From a brief to a conversation

Six stages, with your team’s approval in the middle. Nothing is sent until a person has read it and agreed.

Discover

A plain-language brief becomes a search for the right organisations and people.

Qualify

Duplicates and anyone who has opted out are set aside before anything else happens.

Research

Herald reads about each organisation and notes what is relevant to them.

Approve

Your team reads sample emails written for real prospects, edits them, and approves.

Send

Emails go out from a team member’s own mailbox, within the limits you set.

Reply

Every response is read and sorted, and a person takes the conversation forward.

Replies

Every reply read and sorted

A reply is the point of the exercise. Herald recognises what each one means and makes sure the right thing happens next.

InterestedThis is timely for us. Could we talk next week?Follow-ups stop. A suggested reply waits for your review.

Designed with care

Rules that always apply

The limits below are part of the software. Herald writes the messages; the system decides whether, when and how many are sent.

Approval comes first

A sequence is sent only after your team approves it. Editing it asks for approval again.

Opt-outs are permanent

Unsubscribes, bounces and complaints go on one list that every campaign respects.

A considerate pace

Daily limits for each mailbox, working hours only, and a rest on weekends and holidays.

Checked before it is said

Personal details are verified first, and every draft is checked against your own guidelines.

Built within your systems

Herald sends from your team’s own mailboxes and follows your guidelines for what is said and when.
