rickyyegitalQ: Engaged are not monthly prospects?
Hi,
If I understand you well, 1000 engaged contact means active contact I have on your tool. So for example if in month 1 I have reached out 900 people then in the next month I can reach out to 100 people only as this will complete 900+100= 1000 engaged users.
Is this correct?
Thank you for a detailed explanation. I guess I was correct assuming that, you this is not a monthly contacts.
This is kind of very limiting if you consider a compounding effect. After few months, this will be completely useless as you will have all the engaged users quota consumed
This is a storage limit. As I mentioned you can set contact's status to 'inactive'. There wouldn't be a reason to keep a contact that's unresponsive or not interested in an active status - and counting against your plan limit. Or better said, if you're not actively engaging with a contact, they don't need to be active and counting against your plan.
May be I'm not understanding this correctly.
Let's say I want to reach out to 1000 prospects using a single campaign. All these prospects are imported using people search option. Since I'm be reaching 20 prospects per day (to be on a safer side to prevent my account getting banned on LinkedIn), I'll not be able run any other campaigns as 1000 contacts are consumed already.
The contacts are not a 'consumable' credit, which I think is where the confusion is. It means that at any one moment in time, your account can only engage 1,000 contacts. But those 1,000 contacts can change and be replaced by new contacts. To help clarify I cut this quick Loom: https://www.loom.com/share/dd87ec67e333490592f783ef11d35a71
Oh and also, you brought up another great point. You can execute LinkedIn outreach using our extension without exporting those contacts to Leadfwd. You could for example, just export them to a Google Sheet or only execute the LinkedIn outreach. In that configuration, those profiles would never count against contact limit. Quick example: https://www.loom.com/share/4730c92cddc7462a8514362cef7163d8
Let's continue the above example.
If I've 1000 contacts in a campaign A which is an active campaign but the campaign has reached out to 200 people (800 are still in pipeline)
Can I run another campain B containing 1000 contacts? Or it will consider only 800 contacts as 200 contacts from campaign A are already reached.
Let's also assume all 200 contacts have NOT responded yet
If you need to engage more than 1,000 contacts at one-time, then 1,000 contacts as a limit won't work for you. You would need to move up to the next tier for 3,000. With Tier 1 you can't engage more than 1,000 people at any one time. With Tier 2 you can't engage more than 3,000 contacts at a time, etc.
Got the answer. This is in nutshell very limiting.
You made it complex to understand but then 1000 or even 3000 engaged users is not the right way
It depends on your use case. If you are actively engaging more than 1,000 unique prospects, then yes I'd agree. It is limiting. But that's why we are offering multiple tiers, so you can find the best fit for your needs. Otherwise this is not a novel approach to a platform like ours. It's pretty common.
The label is now 'Manage up to X contacts' instead of 'Engage up to X contacts'. Hopefully that helps alleviate some of the confusion.
I just wanted to convey my message.
At any point of time, I'll be having a campaign with 500-1000 people but I'll be engaging with only few 100s.
If the campaign fails, I'll go with another campaign. The way you have decided to allow only engaged users is not the right approach
Hmm, wait. I think I might see where the confusion is. Let's try this again. So Leadfwd doesn't work like a Instantly or Smartlead Campaign. Where the campaign itself is the storage of the leads/contacts. You import contacts into a centralized list/database in Leadfwd and then add them to Sequences (i.e. Campaigns). You can have contacts in your contact list in Leadfwd that aren't in a campaign
and you can have the same contact in multiple Sequences (i.e. Campaigns), but that contact would only count as 1 for the purposes of your contact limit. So you can have 500 - 1000 contacts imported in Leadfwd, but if only 300 are going to be added to a Sequence to be engaged then the others can be set to Inactive in your Contact List until you need to reach them
Understood. I suggest that you think about the limitations from user perspective. Even if I go for tier 2 plan with 3000 contacts, it's going to be super limited.
3000 active or engaged users for life is kind of very very limiting.
Just think about it
Webratna, it's a great offer. It is not limiting, I think it has been explained to you passively and actively. You may never be processing that amount of (active) contacts.
SOLUTION: Buy the offer and you have 60 days to run it, fill it out and test it.
You like the platform and you find yourself limited, for that there are other tiers. You pay a little! Don't forget that it is a lifetime agreem
