The BombBomb Video + Outreach native integration makes generating replies and scheduling appointments with your prospects easier and more efficient than ever by injecting personal videos into your Outreach sequences, templates, snippets, and one-to-one emails.
With BombBomb Video for Outreach, you can quickly and easily record yourself, your screen, or a combination of both, and embed those videos into your Outreach emails to humanize your emails and scale your best sales asset: YOURSELF. Additionally, you can trigger automated actions in Outreach from prospects playing your BombBomb Videos.

Sending videos through Outreach is the best and easiest way to close this gap and make your sales prospecting emails just as effective and engaging as in-person meetings.

Where BombBomb Video Works within Outreach
The Outreach + BombBomb Video integration allows you to easily upload or record a video within any Outreach email, snippet, template, and sequence compose window. This applies not just to the Outreach desktop application, but also the Outreach Chrome Extension. (Note: Outreach only supports Google Chrome. Using different browsers may result in inconsistencies and it is not recommended.)
BombBomb will track video plays as a unique action within the Outreach tracking feed, allowing you to both filter your engagements by BombBomb videos watched and trigger automated actions from BombBomb video plays.
2 Simple Steps to More Humanized Emails
Record or Select Your Video
Once you’ve hooked up the BombBomb Video integration within Outreach, pressing the BombBomb logo within any compose window will immediately activate the BombBomb Video recorder within Outreach.
Within the BombBomb Recorder you can:
- Start a live webcam recording
- Record your screen
- Upload a video
- Select a video from your library
- Change your camera/mic settings
Time Saving Bonus: BombBomb’s patent-pending video uploader encodes your video while you’re recording it, eliminating the time typically spent waiting for your video to upload to the cloud before being able to send and play it. We’re here to make your day more efficient, NOT slow down your process.
Step 2 [Optional]: Choose Your Thumbnail
Regardless if you upload or record a video, BombBomb will automatically create a clickable, 3-second animated preview of your video to embed within your email. If you record a video, you have the option to customize this.
After you hit stop on your video, you’ll be given the options to save, re-record, or edit your video thumbnail. If you’d like to replace the 3-second animated preview with a custom, still-image thumbnail, you can capture a new thumbnail with your webcam using the “Thumbnail” button.
Hovering over the button will activate your webcam and clicking “Thumbnail” will instantly capture and save a new image. This can be done unlimited times until you’re happy.
Whenever you’re ready, click “Save.” Your video will then be automatically embedded wherever your cursor was located within your Outreach email compose window. And just like that, you’re done!
Note: BombBomb Video will always clearly display the length of the video on your thumbnail or animated preview. This instantly shows your recipient the time commitment required to watch the video from start to finish. We’ve found that our animated previews combined with the timestamp generates 49% more clicks than your average, still-image thumbnail.
Tracking Video Plays
When your email recipient watches a BombBomb video, Outreach will track that engagement as a “Video Play.” This allows you to differentiate between link clicks and video plays, filter your activity feed by BombBomb video plays, and trigger automated actions from prospects playing your videos.
Triggers
When someone plays one of your BombBomb videos, you can have Outreach trigger an automated action for that prospect, including:
- Add Tags
- Add to Sequence
- Create Task
- Remove Tags
- Set Field
- Stop Sequences
Mobile App
If you’d like to be able to record, send, and track videos like this while on the go, you can leverage the BombBomb mobile app for iOS and Android to get face to face no matter the time or place. With our redesigned mobile app for video messaging, you can easily record, upload, send, and track video emails even when you’re away from your desk!
