Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use it for client outreach on LinkedIn. It saves so much time by setting campaigns on autopilot. If I didn't have Closely, I would either have to outsource the outreach to a third-party company or delegate it to an assistant.

  • Automated congratulations of milestones
