Woodpecker Product Review: A tool to save your business time in follow-up emails
Integration with existing tools
The tool offers integration to your Gmail, Outlook or other IMAP account within seconds. A new alias can be easily created and an email signature can be imported to all the emails sent out. It can also be linked to Pipedrive and many other tools.
Personalise your message & automation
According to studies, personalized email messages can improve click-through rate by an average of 14% and conversions by 10%. Woodpecker lets you personalize your messages through the use of custom fields and snippets to merge information from your contact base to templates.
On top of that, it keeps your emails from being blacklisted as spam. How? The tool’s algorithm is programmed to send emails out at an irregular frequency, similar to how we would do them manually!
Send with confidence

This makes sure you don’t get blacklisted as spam.
