There are three options to customize your unsubscribing options in Reply:
An opt-out link/text at the end of each sequence email
A custom opt-out link for each email step
An unsubscribe header
An opt-out variant at the bottom of each sequence step
The first option is perfect if you want your unsubscribing option to be the same for all the emails sent from your mailbox. Here is how you may set everything up:
Go to the Email Accounts tab of your Settings
Select the desired mailbox
Choose the Opt-out tab
Whichever one is highlighted in blue is currently on.
If you keep the text variant, our system will sort the contact's text reply to the Do Not Contact inbox category and assign the Opted Out status. We will not be sending any emails unless you manually remove this status. If you keep the link option on, your prospects can unsubscribe in one click instead of replying. You may edit both the text at the bottom of the email and the text shown on the Opt-out page.
While we recommend keeping either of the variants on to comply with the CAN-Spam policy, you may remove the opt-out text, by leaving all fields blank.
๐ก The opt-out text/link is not added to the test emails (emails sent from the step template), and direct messages (emails sent from a prospect's profile).
Placing a custom opt-out link in your email
If you wish each sequence step to have a custom opt-out text, you may set it up separately inside the sequence (after removing the initial option). Here is what you need to do:
Open the step editor and select the place to insert an opt-out link.
Click the Insert/edit link button.ย
In the Url field, enter {opt-out}. We will convert this text into an opt-out link.
In the Text to Display field, paste the text of the link (for example, click here).ย
Save the changes.
Unsubscribe header: an extra way to opt out
The Unsubscribe Header is an additional way for people to unsubscribe from your emails, particularly useful in marketing outreach.
It offers a compliant method for recipients to opt out of your emails, especially when using the Plain Text Sending Mode. Even if the opt-out links are removed, the unsubscribe header remains, providing an alternative way for recipients to unsubscribe.
Keep in mind that the visibility of this header depends on the email provider, so it should be considered an extra option rather than the primary one.
โ
To enable the Unsubscribe Header:
Navigate to your sequence settings.
Turn on the Enable List-Unsubscribe header for all emails from this sequence toggle.
