From Apollo to BoomSauce.
Apollo is a great lead database. It's a worse cold email engine. Most teams keep Apollo for data and move sending to BoomSauce.
- · Per-seat pricing punishes scaling teams ($59–$149/seat/mo)
- · Shared sending IPs share reputation with every other Apollo tenant
- · Domain rotation is manual and the warmup network is small
- · Bouncing one campaign degrades reputation across your whole account
- Your contact database in Apollo (export to CSV when you need it)
- Apollo's lead search and enrichment
- Existing CRM integration via webhook
- Sending moves to BoomSauce-managed domains and mailboxes
- Sequences rebuild in BoomSauce (Apollo templates → CSV → import)
- Reply detection lives at the mailbox level, not the campaign level
- Billing flips from per-seat subscription to wallet top-up
The migration plan.
- 01
Export your Apollo contacts
Apollo → Search → Save → Export to CSV. We import the standard Apollo CSV shape directly. Persona/company fields preserved.
- 02
Bring your domain (or buy fresh)
BYOD is free — we wire SPF/DKIM/DMARC at Cloudflare, you keep the registrar. Or buy a fresh domain at $25/yr; we handle DNS end-to-end.
- 03
Provision mailboxes
5 mailboxes per domain by default. Per-mailbox warmup starts immediately at 1 email/day, ramping to production over 21 days.
- 04
Rebuild sequences
Paste your Apollo templates into BoomSauce. Templates are first-touch plain-text by default — no images, no links, no calendar invites — because that's what lands.
- 05
Run both in parallel for one cycle
Don't cut Apollo on day one. Run a cohort of identical contacts on both platforms for 30 days and compare reply rates. Migrate the rest based on what you see.
Caveats — read before you commit.
- If you bought Apollo specifically for the lead database (not the sending), keep it for that. We don't replace Apollo's data layer — we replace the sending layer.
- Bulk reply-tracking history doesn't migrate. Reply data starts fresh on BoomSauce.
