Enhanced Prospecting, DFY Mailboxes, and Streamlined Teamwork: October Updates You’ll Love

The busiest sales season of the year is here! Q4 is crunch time for sales and marketing teams, and your outreach needs to perform at its best. That’s why this month’s updates are all about teamwork, deliverability, and efficiency.

Last month, our team brought you a powerful mix of updates designed to simplify your workflow and sharpen your outreach. From enhanced Teamwork features and new prospect filters in Database Search (plus a brand-new Done-For-You Mailboxes setup), everything’s built to help your team move faster and perform better.

Let’s explore what’s new!

Built-in LinkedIn Search

LinkedIn prospecting just got easier! Our new LinkedIn Search tool brings lead generation directly into your Snov.io workspace.

You now have two simple ways to find and save prospects from LinkedIn:

• Save prospects from People searches:

Paste a link to your LinkedIn search results, and Snov.io will automatically find verified emails and add those contacts to your selected list.

• Find prospects from LinkedIn profile URLs:

Upload a file with LinkedIn profile links, and we’ll enrich them with complete data, including names, positions, companies, and verified email addresses.

⚠️ The second option replaces the previous Social URL Search tool and works seamlessly with LinkedIn Automation for a faster, smarter prospecting experience.

💡 Pro tip: For now, we recommend using LinkedIn filters on the search page to save only targeted leads. We are working on adding filters to our LinkedIn Search tool soon, though!

Improved Teamwork

Team collaboration got even smoother. From now on, your personal and Team data stay separate.

When you join a Team, Snov.io automatically creates a dedicated Team workspace for shared records. All records created before joining stay in your personal workspace, while any new data you add afterward is stored in the Team workspace and instantly shared with teammates.

You can easily switch between Team and Personal workspaces from your profile menu, no confusion, no mix-ups.

💡 Pro tip: All data created within the Team workspace belongs to the Team. If a member leaves, their records remain accessible, and the Team leader can transfer ownership to another active member in just a few clicks.

Email updates

Using plain text in your emails is one of the most effective ways to keep your domain safe and improve your campaigns’ performance across deliverability and engagement metrics. To help you achieve the best deliverability, we added two new features to our Campaigns tool:

1. Automatic HTML cleanup

When you paste email copy from Gmail, Google Docs, or other external sources, Snov.io automatically cleans up HTML formatting, such as bold text, styles, and links.

💡Pro tip: Want to keep your original styling? Just paste your HTML template directly into the Source code field in the email editor.

Why does this feature matter?

Emails without excess HTML look more natural to providers, making them appear safer and more trustworthy, which helps improve deliverability and inbox placement.

2. Plain text mode

With Plain Text Mode, Snov.io automatically removes any formatting or elements that could trigger spam filters, helping you maintain a strong sender reputation.

You can enable plain text for any step in your sequence or when sending a message directly from a prospect’s profile.

💡Pro tip: We recommend starting your email sequence with a plain text email. For follow-ups, you can switch to HTML to add conditions, visuals, or link tracking.

Why does this feature matter?

Based on our research of 44M+ cold emails, plain text achieves a higher reply rate: 1.30% vs. 1.08% for HTML.

Simplified prospecting with Database Search

To make prospecting faster and more accurate, we’ve introduced new filters in Database Search that help you zero in on the right leads in just a few clicks.

1. Improved location filters

Search results in Europe and Asia are now broader, automatically covering all regional subdivisions and countries within your selected area.

That means when you choose “Europe” or “Asia,” your search will instantly include prospects from every country in that region.

2. New prospect filters

You can now search prospects by Department or Management Level, making your targeting more precise and effective:

• Department: Find leads in Marketing, Sales, IT, Operations, Engineering, HR, Finance, etc.
• Management: Reach out to the right decision-makers by seniority: C-Level, VP-Level, Director-Level, Manager-Level, or Staff.

These filters come with default parameters and can be combined with other filters in Database Search for even sharper segmentation.

Done-For-You domains and mailboxes

Setting up mailboxes for outreach just got easier and faster! You can now purchase Done-For-You (DFY) domains and mailboxes directly from your Snov.io workspace, eliminating manual configuration.

 

DFY Mailboxes are perfect for:

• Teams that need to scale outreach seamlessly and deploy dozens of senders in bulk across multiple campaigns or clients.
• Anyone new to outbound who wants a quick, reliable setup without the tech headaches.

Here’s what you get:

• Fast setup: Buy domains and set up mailboxes in bulk with unlimited scalability.
• Complete tech configuration: We automatically handle SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and tracking domains for every account.
• Safer outreach: Build up your sender reputation with automatic warm-up and send up to 100 emails per mailbox per day.

💡Pro tip: For best deliverability, we recommend sticking to these limits:

• Domains: 2-3 active (+1-2 backups)
• Mailboxes: 3–5 per domain
• Daily sending limit:

–> 20-30 emails per day (optimal recommended)

–> 50 emails per day (maximum recommended)

Dynamic proxies in Email Warm-up

To help you maintain strong deliverability in case of IP-related issues, Snov.io now offers a Dynamic Proxy option.

When enabled, your warm-up will automatically rotate between multiple IP addresses, keeping your activity natural and preventing potential delivery problems.

⚠️ When to use it: Dynamic Proxy isn’t necessary for every sender. Turn it on only if your active warm-up shows signs of issues. For example, if your deliverability score drops to zero or you see warm-up errors in your dashboard.

You can enable this feature at any time in your Warm-up settings with just one click.

And this is it for now.

Black Friday is coming soon, and we have something exciting for you in store! Stay tuned for more updates.

💜With love,

Snov.io team
