Pick the best source for every attributeSources are ranked separately for each of hundreds of attributes, and every value comes from the strongest one.
Verify what you will act onEmails are verified before they reach you, so outreach lands with the business.

During campaign review, open the email previews before you save and start sending. Check every step in the sequence, including the subject line, message, call to action, signature, and timing.

If you use a business name or AI snippet, preview how it appears for different businesses. Audit a varied sample for inaccurate details, awkward names, and language that does not sound like you.

Keep the first email short, casual, and plain text, with one easy question to answer. Put the business-specific snippet in its own short paragraph, often after the main ask. If you do not have a reliable first name, begin with the message instead of using a generic greeting.

Edit any wording that feels inaccurate or unnatural. Your edits help Resquared adapt future suggestions to your voice, audience, and results.

What to do

  1. Open the campaign and select the review or preview option.
  2. Review each email in the sequence and its sending interval.
  3. Preview snippets across a varied sample of businesses.
  4. Check the subject, sender identity, personalization, call to action, and signature.
  5. Make your edits, save the campaign, and start sending when it is ready.

Related questions

Can I edit an AI snippet before sending?

Yes. Edit or remove any detail that is inaccurate, too specific, or out of character for you.

Should I preview every prospect?

Review the full sequence and audit a varied sample of businesses before launch. Inspect more examples when records, categories, or business names vary widely.

What should the first email look like?

It should read like a short personal note with plain text, one relevant business detail, and one easy question. Avoid links, images, attachments, and elaborate formatting.
