InboxGeek integrates with Blastable so you can grow your list from website traffic you already have and reach subscribers at the moment they are active in their inbox. You keep using Blastable for your lists, segments and autoresponders. InboxGeek adds two services on top: LiveLeads and LiveOpens. There’s no migration and no new email platform to learn.
LiveLeads for Blastable: turn anonymous visitors into contacts
Most people who visit your site never fill out a form. Forms usually catch only the 2 to 3% of visitors who choose to fill them out, so the traffic you paid for leaves without a trace.
LiveLeads changes that with one lightweight script in your site header. It identifies visitors who never touch a form, matches them against a compliant identity graph, and validates each email address before it reaches you. InboxGeek reports that LiveLeads identifies 20 to 40% of anonymous US website traffic.
For Blastable users, the payoff is what happens next:
- Leads flow into Blastable. Source Automations send captured leads to your connected platform, so new contacts can go straight into the automations you already run.
- You choose which leads to send. Filter by time spent on site, by actions such as adding to cart or reaching checkout, and by email validation status. Route different visitors into different sequences.
- You don’t pay twice. Suppression lists filter out contacts you already have. You can also suppress visitors who buy within 15 minutes of arriving.
- Your follow-up gets more personal. Each lead comes with the page URL and date of the visit, so your welcome series can match what they were browsing.
LiveOpens for Blastable: send when subscribers are in their inbox
A lot of “inactive” subscribers aren’t really gone. Your email simply reached them at the wrong moment and got buried. LiveOpens fixes the timing.
InboxGeek syncs with the Blastable list or segment you choose. When a subscriber is active in their inbox, InboxGeek subscribes that contact to an empty Reception List in Blastable. A Blastable autoresponder on that Reception List then sends the email you picked, so it lands at the top of the inbox while they’re looking. InboxGeek estimates it knows when 40 to 60% of your subscribers are actively engaged in their inbox.
- Your setup stays the same. You keep your lists, segments and autoresponders in Blastable. LiveOpens just triggers the send.
- Your engagement goes up. Reaching people while they’re reading helps you re-engage subscribers you had written off.
- You control the volume. Set a daily event limit (InboxGeek recommends 200 events per day to start) and decide how often the same subscriber can trigger an event again.
- You don’t get duplicates. Pick more than one list or segment, and InboxGeek filters out duplicate contacts so no one gets several events.
Better together
Use both services and you cover the whole journey. LiveLeads turns anonymous visitors into new contacts in Blastable. LiveOpens then times their first emails for the moment they return to their inbox.
How the Reception List works in Blastable
Blastable markets itself as email marketing and autoresponder software. Its InboxGeek setup uses two lists: the list or segment you want to target, and an empty Reception List that InboxGeek subscribes contacts to the moment they’re active. A Blastable autoresponder attached to that Reception List does the sending, and you shouldn’t pick a suppression list for it. The design has a side benefit: the Reception List doubles as a running record of who InboxGeek has activated. If your Blastable account is enterprise, switch on the Sending domain option when you add the platform; standard accounts leave it off.
