Klaviyo and Sendlane are platforms designed for sending emails to subscribers who have explicitly opted in. They’re great for engaging current customers with newsletters and reminders. However, these tools are not suitable for unsolicited outreach, such as contacting influencers for the first time.
Using them for cold outreach can lead to spam-related issues and may violate their Terms of Service.
That’s where SARAL comes in, offering a safe and compliant solution for cold outreach.
Why Klaviyo and Sendlane Aren't Recommended for Cold Outreach
Marketing Emails: These are emails sent to people who haven’t explicitly opted in, such as influencers you’re contacting for the first time. Platforms like Klaviyo and Sendlane are not ideal for cold outreach because they lack the infrastructure needed for this type of messaging.
Transactional Emails: These are emails sent to people who have already opted in, like your existing customers. Platforms like Klaviyo and Sendlane are perfect for these types of emails, as they’re fully compliant with anti-spam regulations and designed for communication with individuals who’ve consented to receive your messages.

Why SARAL’s Email Feature Is Ideal for Cold Outreach
Our email feature is designed specifically for cold outreach, allowing you to reach out to influencers without needing prior consent. SARAL’s system ensures compliance and optimizes deliverability, helping you avoid spam filters.
