Consensus for Outreach

In this article we will review what you can do with the Consensus Outreach plugin.

The Consensus Outreach Plugin allows you to quickly and easily create DemoBoard links directly in Outreach for both Direct AND Template (Mail Merge) emails. Simply select the Consensus icon at the bottom of your Direct or Template email to connect to your Consensus account and create a DemoBoard link you can insert directly into your message.

Below we'll walk through using the plugin for both Direct and Template (Mail Merge) emails. Need to install the Consensus for Outreach plugin? Use the link below
