  • Find the most engaged leads

    Easily find and highlight your most engaged contacts by automatically tagging those who interact with your campaigns.

  • Target different locations with unique campaigns

    Automatically sort new prospects into lists and groups based on where they’re located in the world. Go as specific as you’d like: from country, to city, to neighborhood.
