Autoklose 1.0 — Machine learning assisted email follow-up

Hello, I am Shawn, founder and CEO of Autoklose. Thank you @nikkielizdemere for hunting us! I’ve been in sales all my life, selling everything from boxes to enterprise software to Fortune 500 companies. You could say I know a thing or two about sales. And I can frankly say that the follow-up is the most important but also the most boring and tedious part of the day. Autoklose is conceived an all-in-one sales automation platform that eliminates time-consuming, mechanical and repetitive tasks and allows a salesperson (as well as anybody else) to focus on turning the most interested prospects into sales. I’ll spare you all the boring details and just mention that you’ll get all the goodies like email sequences, lead segmentation, tons of email templates that worked for me all these years, automated triggers, tracking, lead de-duplication analytics, and much more. And if you have a team, you can add them to your campaigns, change their roles, and get complete campaign analytics to see how they perform. Yes, the competition is fierce out there. Took me a while to get this far. Obviously, there are products with similar features. From my experience in the field, I do believe my vision is much clearer than that of the competition. I want to help each and every user realize how they rank against competition and what they should do to improve their performance. My team is working hard building in machine learning in the background and this sophisticated technology will literally tell you whether your subject line is too long or too short, whether you have enough follow-ups, and how your copy ranks against the others in your vertical. This is not an easy thing to do, which is why our algorithm will be invaluable to anyone wondering “Am I doing it right?”. Lastly, I want to thank everyone who made it into our Beta program and provided valuable feedback! Also wanted to thank @itsjosuepena, @akio, @joshuafechter, @matthew_staton, @nikkielizdemere, @azinkevich, @johnfrlyon, @frank_salas, @talentedmrsalas, @goran_candrlic, @jon_buchan, @gerardcomptedur for all your support and feedback. I would love to hear your thoughts and comments! Thanks!

Though I haven't had the chance to test it completely, but it is going to be a beast outbound tool. Great tool and Good luck Shawn!

I was amongst beta-testers and really liked Autoklose. Besides standard outreach we spoke with Shawn (founder of Autoklose) about some cool features to add that any other outreach tool doesn't have.

The coolest part is that you can connect Exchangeleads and get access to the B2B database from the US and Canada.

So in a few click you can easily create ABM campaigns.

Keep rocking, guys!

Pros:

Great outbound tool

Cons:

Didn't find :)

Glad I had a chance to test the tool in pre-beta. The tool has a lot of needed features like e-mail sequence, predefined templates, team management platform, lead & contact management system and analyzer dashboard... I am waiting to see how and the team will continue with the integration pipeline. Good luck guys! 😉 @shawnfinder @danielkempe @jeroen_corthout

Looks amazing guys! Good luck :)

This tool ROCKS! I was the hardcore Mailshake user before this but, with Autoklose I have a lot more possibilities with that CRM and all in one approach. I am using it for 1 month now and I am more than happy with it! Hey @nikola_cvetanovic check this out.

I was lucky enough to get in touch with Shawn before the launch. I tested most features and I have to say Autoklose is an awesome email marketing tool. The tool helps you reach prospects through cold emails easily. The deliverability and opening rates are so high because you can connect Autoklose with your Gmail account. This is not it: Autoklose gives many email templates to choose from, it's so easy to set up triggers, which also makes the tool useful to set up drip email campaigns. Thanks!

This looks like an all-around outbound tool. Do you have standard list importing option?

Used Autoklose while in pre-beta and had a chance to connect with @shawnfinder and guys while the tool was developing. The idea behind the tool is really cool and Shawn has a clear vision what he wants to do with it.

It is crafted and designed like a enterprise tool with all the features you need for your outreach efforts.

The special benefit of Autoklose is that Shawn is Finder and CEO of another startup - ExchangeLeads with B2B e-mail base with more than 7 million e-mails that are verified and daily updated by the data team which is really great if you are in B2B industry.

Pros:

Great concept of all-in-one outbound/sales platform with combined features like e-mail sequences, lead management, team management and data.

Cons:

Small number of integrations now, but having in mind that the tool is fresh this is not a con.

Currently using Autoklose for my sole purposes since I am a one-man-team, but it is working really well with good pre defined templates and that integrated user base wich is great. Hope I will see more integrations but since it is a young tool that is not the con.

I have tested while it was in PRE-BETA and i must say that I am impressed! It has all the features an outreach/sales tool needs to have, it is simple to use and it delivers results. Automating outreach processes is crucial for my work, and I find Autoklose very practical. Hope they will continue with development and add some more integrations.

Is it a one-time payment for the additional list feature? And how often is the list updated? @ShawnFinder

Been using AK for about 2 months now, really like the product. The biggest difference between AK and other outreach tools is access to the lead database right in the system. The way I understand it is that you can select the criteria, and AK automatically puts new leads into your funnel each month. Pretty incredible!

Sounds great, good luck you guys! @shawnfinder, can you name your two biggest competitors and why exactly do you think your vision is cleaner in improving the sales process? Thank you beforehand for the answer!

What is exactly meant by “team management”? Can you have your team working on the same project and add them roles? Can you track your team performance also? @ShawnFinder

What are the integrations that are expected until the end of 2018? @ShawnFinder

This looks like a good agency tool to manage the outreach and save us time, especially with that team manager. Will give it a look.

This is a great tool. I had the chance to test it while they were in PRE-BETA and it is working like a charm! @bojan_djokic did you check this out?

This product will not only save you a lot of time, but also create a system for you that will basically print money on demand! Great tool to use for any business who wants to automate their sales process without sacrificing results!

Pros:

Automating the sales process

Cons:

I didnt find out about this before

Hey Kev, have you seen this? @kwdinc
