Access the Outreach Platform.
Click the Prospect’s icon (double silhouette) in the navigation sidebar.
Sort, filter, and click the applicable Prospect.

Note: A Prospect’s profile can be accessed within the Outreach Platform where the Prospect is listed. For example, Users can access a Prospect through the Accounts List View by clicking the Prospects decorated link and clicking the applicable Prospect.

A Note About How Prospects are Added to Outreach:

Outreach provides Users the ability to add Prospects to Outreach by directly importing from a CRM such as Salesforce or Microsoft Dynamics, as well as CSV files.

Additionally, depending on how the Org’s settings have been configured, Users can opt to have Outreach automatically create a Prospect when sending an email to an email address not associated with a Prospect in Outreach.
