The Salesforce integration enables you to enrich your email analytics with data from your Salesforce CRM. Each integration is custom-made to match your specific needs and use cases. Please get in touch with your Email Meter representative to discuss the specifics of your integration and how it can be tailored to your requirements. This integration allows you to combine your Salesforce contact, account, and opportunity data with Email Meter’s email analytics, providing deeper insights into your email communications. This integration is particularly valuable when you want to:
  • Filter email analytics by Salesforce contact or account properties
  • Group email statistics by account name instead of email domain
  • Analyze communication patterns with different customer segments or opportunity stages
For example, you could analyze email response times specifically for contacts in the “Negotiation” stage, or see how your team’s communication patterns differ between “Enterprise” and “SMB” accounts. The integration automatically syncs this data, allowing you to create more meaningful and actionable email analytics reports.
