Hey gang - my team have just implemented Outreach and there's some internal debate around email tracking. Outreach (and others like it) insert a small pixel into prospect emails as an image when tracking is enabled. Since 2024 Gmail are flagging any emails with images to users as potential spam, with the option to report. Obviously if enough prospects choose to do this it will hurt our sender reputation. I don't really have a strong POV here as I'm reasonably new in this role and my last job was at a large consulting firm who weren't doing lots of cold outbound. Wondering what people's thoughts on this are.. is it worth the risk? Is the risk that big? Is a prospect opening an email really a workable sign of intent for salespeople? Would love to get some perspectives on this 🙂

Hey folks - wondering what people's preferred data vendors are? We're currently looking to switch from Apollo as we don't want the same vendor for sequencing and data. We are a b2b2c marketing company focused on large enterprise consumer brands in the North American market. The solution needs to have robust account and contact level data, and integrate well with Salesforce and ideally also Outreach who are likely going to be our vendor for sequencing going forward. Not too fussed about intent data and various claims of AI market intelligence, I just want good data in an easy to consume format with reliable support. I know Zoominfo are big in this space but they're quite expensive for what you get. Seamless? Hubspot Breeze? I know the cool kids are on Clay but the learning curve and bottle neck-y nature of the tool is a deterrent. What are the second coolest kids using these days?

Hi all! Spenny Kome from sunny Toronto, Ontario. I'm currently working in the creator marketing space after about 10 years in different tech (industry) roles. I crossed the aisle from sales to RevOps about 5 years ago but my current role is the first in which I've had proper RevOps mentorship. Until recently I've been learning Salesforce on my own and developed some bad habits, so I'm here to get my formal education in the trade. Joined RevGenius to connect with other industry pros and share ideas and learning, I'm also curious about some of the different vendor demos here as sales / marketing tech is such a rapidly evolving space.
