Apollo.io Workflow Action

Our new Apollo.io workflow action supports automatic creation of Apollo.io contacts at any stores matching a workflow. Apollo.io Action. The action supports the following configuration: Limit Determines the maximum number of contacts a company should have. If the company already has the maximum number of contacts (or more), then nothing is done. If there are fewer than the maximum number of contacts, then we'll try to create contacts until the maximum is reached.

Chrome Extension Version 2

We've just released version 2 of our Chrome Extension which improves the functionality of our integrations within the extension. The extension now supports virtually all of the same integration features that are supported within the Store Leads website. As an example, if you have the Apollo.io integration enabled, you'll now see an Apollo.io tab within the extension. This tab shows you a list of people working at each website that you visit.

Configurable Salesforce Lead Matching Logic

By default, we match Salesforce Leads to stores in our database by looking at the Website and Email columns in our database. However, sometimes the values in these fields can't be trusted, especially if they are set by customer-facing forms where the customer is free to enter any value for, say, the Email field. In cases like this, where you may not trust the Email field, it's now possible to configure which fields to use when matching Leads.

Apollo.io Contact Management Improvements

We've just pushed a significant improvment to our Apollo.io integration focused on contact management. Many people use the contact management and sequencing features within Apollo.io. If you used those features, then you'd often need to switch back and forth between Store Leads and Apollo.io since we didn't support Apollo.io Contact management within Store Leads - until now. It's now possible to do the following within the Store Leads UI: Create Apollo.

Chrome Extension updates for Shopify App Store

The Store Leads Chrome Extension now provides additional context for reviews left in the Shopify App Store. When looking at a review, we'll add the following information for stores in our database. Multiple value separator option.

CSV Column Separator for Multiple Values

Exporting data to a CSV file is convenient since CSV files are supported by many different programs, including the ever-popular spreadsheet. The main downside to CSV files is that they aren't great for representing structured data. To handle structured data cleanly, we encourage people to use our API but, of course, APIs are nowhere near as convenient as a CSV file. Sometimes you just have to use a CSV file for quick analysis.

Rank Percentile Filters

We've just added the ability to filter on rank percentiles (and platform rank percentiles). This makes it easy to run searches like "show me the top 1% of all Shopify stores". To run this query, switch to Advanced Search and add the following filters. Filter = Rank Percentile, Minimum = 99 Filter = Platform, Value = Shopify Social media followers. Note that, since the most-popular store in the database has rank #1, percentile values are inverted for simplicity.

E-Commerce Day 2022

We're looking forward to attending E-Commerce day on August 12th at the Hilton Los Angeles. We're excited to be back to in-person events and eCommerce Day will bring together agencies & tech companies that serve merchants. The event will be a great chance to network and discuss sales/marketing ideas and talk about trends in the industry. We'll be hosting a workshop covering different ways that you can find great leads for your business in Store Leads.

Workflow Status and Logs

Since workflows run automatically and can take a long time to complete (especially when waiting on API capacity from an external vendor like Apollo.io), it can be difficult to understand how much progress a Workflow has made, how much work is left to be done and what's happening if a workflow is not creating as many contacts as expected. Use the new Status and Logs tab on the Workflow details page to see how much work is left to complete and a log of recent workflow actions.

Configurable Email Statuses

When we first launched our integration with Apollo.io, we only allowed retrieval of verified email addresses. However, Apollo.io also supports extrapolated email addresses and these can useful to use as well. To support this, we've just added the option to opt-into the use of extrapolated emails when configuring a contact creation rule. Contact creation rule support for email status.
