5 Ways Tout Will Help You Be More Productive1. Learn what ACTUALLY happens after you hit “send.” Email tracking gives you a real-time view into how your day-to-day communications are resonating with your leads, prospects, customers and clients.

2. Write your emails faster. Customizable templates eliminate the tedious task of copying and pasting that same message over and over again.

4. Know if your messaging is effective. Tout analytics reports which messaging is effective and how much engagement you are getting with your sent emails.

Looking to go solo or join Tout with your team? Professional Plan: Great for single users

looking to use Tout for day-to-day email activity. CEOs, entrepreneurs and professionals love this plan for basic email tracking, CRM integration and templates.

Startup Plan: Recommended for startups and smaller companies. If you’re looking to share templates, groups and have analytics across a small team, this is the plan for you. The Startup plan is also popular for solo users looking for increased email limits and group sizes.

Invite your team!

Here’s the breakdown of our pricing plans.

Enterprise Plan: Looking to use Tout with your sales team? Schedule a call with us.

Lite Plan: If you’re on a budget and looking to send emails casually, this might be the plan for you. The Lite plan is more restricting than the Professional Plan, with only 15 trackable emails per day and no CRM integration. If you’re not a full-time sales professional this might work for you!

Small Biz Plan: Any more than 5 users and this is the plan for you! You’ll have access to ALL of Tout’s features, with team templates, analytics and the maximum amount of emails and groups. AND you’ll have custom domain and website tracking.

To manage your account go to Settings and Integrations.

Free Plan: Use email sparingly? This plan offers 5 trackable emails per day. If you’re looking to evaluate Tout without the commitment, though, we recommend trialing a paid plan for two weeks.

Page 16: Simple Steps to Email Happiness

I don’t know what happens to my email after I hit “send.”We’ve all been there... you send an email, try to schedule a meeting, even close a deal and NO REPLY.

• Know what the people you email are actually interested in

• Use that knowledge to send targeted and relevant follow up

• No reply yet? Check in with a purpose

• Know when people are most likely to open your emails, so you can get noticed in their inbox

• Warm up your cold calls; know exactly when your lead is engaged so you can time your call

• Eliminate anxiety around hearing back from a BIG lead, customer or account

• Spend less of your time with people that are not engaged... or dead

• Use overall tracking analytics to be more successful with outreach
