Have two-way conversations in one place

Automate next steps
Trigger follow-up based on anything the system knows about each contact. Since Ontraport knows more, you have more opportunity to improve your results by segmenting and targeting your messaging than with any other system.

Know which emails really work
Forget tracking just clicks and opens. Add UTMs to every email link with a click so you know which emails lead to actual sales or other downline goals.
Split testing for real results
Test more than just subject lines; test timing of sends, order of emails in a series and more. Plus, judge winners based on deep funnel conversions, not just opens and clicks.
Personal SMS numbers
Get your own dedicated SMS number to use for text messaging instead of numbers used by a pool of businesses so your customers can save your number and respond directly to you.

Automate smart replies
Save time on follow-ups by automating SMS messages based on contact information or actions. For example, you can trigger automations based on keywords to send resources, or send reminder texts based on appointment times or past purchase dates.
See results easily
View your email stats right on your automated campaign map rather than on a separate analytics dashboard so you can see at a glance the results of all your emails in the series.
Send at the right time
Know that your emails will be delivered shortly after you send them instead of within hours, and schedule sends in your recipients’ time zones so they get messages when the timing’s right.

Frequently Asked Questions

Marketing automation is technology that manages repetitive marketing tasks and complex campaigns so you don’t have to. This software allows you to automate your communication with leads and customers throughout the customer lifecycle, from their first touchpoint to post-purchase.

When paired with a CRM that collects data about your leads and customers, your marketing automation software can use that data to deliver engaging, effective experiences across multiple channels. Whether you use email marketing, SMS messages or a combination of the two, marketing automation will give you the power to turn more leads into customers — without managing the whole process manually.


There are lots of reasons to send bulk SMS messages to your leads and customers, but one of the most compelling is their sky-high open rates. Research shows that 95% of SMS messages are read within three minutes of receiving them — which means you can run campaigns and encourage leads and customers to take action in real-time.

Plus, leads and customers are far more likely to redeem your coupons and offers if they’re sent via SMS messages, which makes bulk SMS marketing an ideal strategy for boosting engagement.


We have lots of resources on our blog and Support Center for getting more of your emails into the inbox and optimizing your content. You can also check out this article to learn specific practices for boosting delivery rates, like using a custom domain, creating strategic content, keeping an engaged list and more.


Email is one of the most valuable channels for staying in touch with customers and leads. With an email automation tool, you’ll be able to keep up with all the messages you send on a regular basis and never worry about dropping the ball on your customers. It’ll make it easier for you to share a newsletter, follow up with leads, close deals, welcome new customers and more, without keeping up with everything manually.

And, because Ontraport’s email marketing tools are built in with your sales, marketing and CRM systems, you’ll have all the data you need to market to each lead and customer’s unique wants and needs.


Ontraport’s robust set of email marketing features make it easy to send the right messages at the right times and deliver a more personalized experience. Since your email marketing will be synced up to your automations and CRM, you’ll be able to trigger follow-up messages based on any kind of activity: clicks, form fill-outs, page visits and more. Plus, you can use UTMs, split testing and advanced reporting to see how your emails are performing.

Ontraport also comes with lots of deliverability resources to help your emails land in your customers’ inboxes. We have 15 years of email delivery experience, along with an in-house postmaster team that can give you one-on-one support with any issues that arise. Plus, you’ll have access to features that give you control over your email reputation, like a custom domain and private IP address. All these tools and resources combine to make Ontraport one of the best email marketing platforms on the market.
