What is Outbound Engagement?

Outbound Engagement shows when your outbound emails drive real interest, even when tracking pixels are blocked. Avina compares the timing of the emails your team sends with website activity from the same accounts, so you can see which prospects engaged after hearing from you.

Turning it on

Outbound Engagement is a built-in audience. Every workspace has one, named “Outbound Signal”, on the Audiences page.
  • It starts inactive. Use the toggle on its card to switch it on.
  • It needs a sales engagement integration (such as Outreach, Salesloft, or Gong), so Avina knows what your team sent, plus the Avina Web SDK on your site. If the integration is missing, the card shows a setup link.
  • Built-in audiences can’t be edited, only switched on and off.

Why Outbound Engagement matters

  • Fix broken attribution: see engagement that privacy blockers hide from email opens and clicks.
  • Validate your campaigns: learn which messages actually drive traffic.
  • Time your follow-up: reach out based on real behavior, not just opens.

When to use it

  • A prospect receives an outbound email and visits your website shortly afterward.
  • You want to know which sequences resonate with specific personas.
  • You need visibility into “silent” engagement: prospects who browse but don’t reply.

High-value plays

  • Silent interest follow-up: post engaged prospects to the rep’s Slack channel with a Send a Slack Message automation, so they can follow up while the visit is fresh.
  • Light-touch sequences: enroll silent engagers in a short AI Sequence based on the pages they viewed.
  • CRM visibility: push the activity to your CRM with Push Audience Match to CRM for reporting.
