How to Connect Your Nexus AI Account to SendGrid

SendGrid is a powerful cloud-based email service provider designed to help businesses send both transactional and marketing emails with ease. Among its premium features is the Dedicated IP Address, which is crucial for email marketing as it ensures greater control over your email deliverability. By using a Dedicated IP, your emails won’t share an IP address with other users, minimizing the risk of being marked as spam. You can learn more about the benefits of a Dedicated IP and advanced email strategies in our Email Marketing Academy.

When you connect SendGrid to Nexus AI, you’ll be able to send targeted broadcast emails directly through the Nexus AI Easy CRM tool to all or selected contacts and leads captured from your funnels.
