What is Salesflare?

Salesflare links contacts and sales opportunities to company accounts. Create a few accounts and opportunities, then adjust pipeline stages and follow-up settings before importing the rest of your database.

Contacts collected from email and calendar activity appear in the private My Contacts list. Add them to an account to show them in Customers and share their collected details with the team.

Salesflare interface languages

English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese

Choose an app language in Regional settings. A supported browser language sets the initial default. European and Brazilian Portuguese are included. Gmail sidebar language coverage is unconfirmed.

Who it suits

  • B2B teams managing relationships through company accounts
  • Gmail users who want automatic email capture and assigned follow-up tasks

Email sync

Sync sent emails from your connected address without logging each message, including emails sent through another email program.

Tasks

Link tasks to accounts, set reminder dates and assign work to colleagues. Review tasks in Today, Upcoming and Completed lists.

Workflow automation

Trigger email workflows when contacts match filters, such as an opportunity stage. Pro adds further email steps and follow-up conditions.

How Salesflare works with Gmail

Install the Gmail sidebar from Applications and Integrations. Open an email from a linked contact to see the account timeline, tasks and files. From the sidebar, manage CRM records, insert saved templates and track email opens or link clicks.

Salesflare syncs sent emails from a connected address even when you use another email program. Email workflows use filtered or manually selected audiences. Continuous workflows also include future contacts when they match your filters.

Getting started

  1. Connect your customer-facing email account, install the Gmail Chrome sidebar and choose whether to enable email tracking.
  2. Create company accounts, link contacts and opportunities, and set pipeline stages. Check the timelines before importing more records.
  3. Connect Google Calendar, set follow-up preferences and assign tasks. Check a campaign's audience and sending window before starting it.
