CloseFactor vs. Closely

CloseFactor has been a great way to target contacts by company and be able to filter down by other characteristics, such as seniority, specific role, or other keywords. There is still some manual work to push contacts to a CRM or contact tool (SalesLoft, Outreach) but being able to do this in bulk rather than one by one saves a lot of time when finding quality prospects.

Closing rates increase up to 25% when using Closely’s automated outreach platform. Closely gives you the ability to reach out to the exact people who are interested in your offer. You can set up the entire campaign, and then Closely will take over everything else. You can choose your message and deliver it using email or text. Sometimes the interface can be a little slow. I would suggest doing some testing before committing to this tool. Closely saves time, which is important to me. I have been using it for about a month now, and I have noticed that my close rate has increased by 25%. I am able to focus on building my list instead of doing the tedious task of emailing people.

CloseFactor builds on tools like LinkedIn Sales Navigator. Rather than comb through contacts one by one, CloseFactor identifies all contacts that satisfy certain criteria and allows us to bulk push them into our CRM. There is also a component of validating contact info that is imported with the contact, which LinkedIn lacks entirely
