Outreach Everywhere Chrome Extension
The Outreach Everywhere Chrome Extension is a complete productivity tool built to embed Outreach’s sales engagement platform directly into the everyday workflows of sales professionals. Instead of toggling between Outreach and the apps you use most, each in a separate window - the extension brings core Outreach features right into your browser, allowing for faster, more consistent, and more personalized outreach.
One of its most valuable capabilities is the full Google Mail integration. When you open an email thread, the Outreach extension appears alongside it, enabling you to view prospect activity, enroll prospects in sequences, use saved templates and snippets, insert scheduling links, and even set reminders without leaving your inbox. This tight integration is a game-changer for reps who live in Gmail and want to run structured outbound or followup sequences without bouncing between separate windows or copying and pasting data.
It also works seamlessly within Salesforce. If you’re viewing a lead in your CRM, Outreach Everywhere detects the record and lets you perform all the usual Outreach actions directly from that page - sending an email, logging a call, viewing sequence history, creating tasks, and more. This not only improves efficiency but also ensures CRM data stays aligned with your outreach efforts.
The browser extension is also useful during LinkedIn prospecting. While browsing a prospect’s profile, you can access Outreach features, create a new contact if needed, and initiate follow-up tasks to ensure the prospect doesn't slip through the cracks. On top of that, it supports a universal task flow that lets you move from Outreach to Salesforce to LinkedIn without losing track of who you’re engaging or what’s next.
Beyond prospecting and email, Outreach Everywhere simplifies meeting scheduling by allowing users to insert pre-set times or calendar links into emails. It also automates prospect creation - if you’re emailing someone not yet in Outreach, the extension can auto-generate their profile and add them to your workspace.
Ultimately, the Outreach Chrome Extension is designed to enable sales teams to move faster without sacrificing personalization or structure. By embedding Outreach directly into your window and CRM, it eliminates friction, reduces manual work, and ensures you’re always working from one unified, complete, up-to-date system. Whether you're a BDR sending volume, an AE juggling deals, or a manager reviewing activity, the extension keeps your outbound machine running smoothly and efficiently.
