Step 3: Invite your team members to Outplay

You can add team members to Outplay by sending an email invite to their email addresses. When a team member signs up, they are automatically added to the same subscription as yours. 

Here’s how you can invite your team members to Outplay without any hassle. 

Step 4: Set up your Custom Domain

On Outplay, you can track email clicks and website visits easily. This gives you foresight into what your prospect is truly looking for. 

However, when you track email link clicks, a tracking domain which is different from your sender domain (your email) is used. When your tracking domain and sender domain do not match, it’s likely that your emails may be reported as spam. 

By creating a custom domain, you can prevent yourself from being listed as spam. Take a look at how to create a custom domain on Outplay and learn how. 

Step 5: Enable the Outplay Dialer

You can directly call your prospect through the dynamic Outplay Dialer.

But first, you have to add dialer credits and configure your Outplay Dialer settings. 

Step 6: Configure Chat and Website Tracking

When a cold prospect visits your website, a regular chat widget asks a few qualifying questions to funnel them into the sales pipeline. 

But what happens when a warm prospect, to whom you’ve already been talking, lands on your website through your email? Repeat the same, cold, qualifying questions all over again? Not with Outplay around!

With Outplay, your warm prospects will see the Outplay chat widget inviting them to chat with you, live. 

You can continue the conversation you've been having seamlessly, so your prospect really feels like they're dealing with a person, and not an automated bot. 

Additionally, you can track your prospects on your website. Learn what interests them, how many times they’ve visited your site, and how long they’ve stayed on a page. 

Here’s a complete guide on how to configure chat and website settings. 

Step 7: Configure your Org Settings

As an Admin, you can configure safety settings for users and teams on Outplay. You can set the number of emails that can be sent by a user and the number of emails sent to a domain. Moreover, you can prioritize sequences, enable features like call waiting, call recording, and much more.
