Anyone noticed GMail marking outbounding efforts as Spam more?

Hey Ya'll, I'm a normal MM AE. I occasionally outbound prospect, no more than 75 a week. Just found out GMail is now filtering me as spam. This has never happened to me before. Anyone else notice this happening a lot?

I do see that by checking my spam folder and I really like it. You need to dial or connect through other people.

Hey! Rallier, you are SDR manager right? I have some questions regarding forming SDR team for B2B saas startups. Would you be open to connect sometime? It may save me a lot of time from doing it inefficiently...

Check your email health and put it on warmup. Don't use any links and images in your email. Always validate the list before sending.

Do you work for a startup? Iโ€™ve noticed lots of startups havenโ€™t configured their technical settings. Things like DKIM,SPF, and DMARC

I easily get 5-6 cold email outreach messages a day from vendors and Gmail sends them directly to my Spam folder. I occasionally check it because Gmail flagged one of my high-profile clients as spam and that client was super pissed that I was ignoring them. To answer your question OP... It's been happening for a while and the IT teams at each company are finding a way to parse your emails to spam folders.

For all you mail mergers out there, do you see more success emailing one DM or all DMs on a custom thread? I've noticed that putting all relevant DMs on one campaign that is 100% customized to their business has a much higher response rate (28% meeting sucess)
