Channels

What Channels is

Channels is a phone dialers tool in the B2B go-to-market stack. In the vendor's own words: “Data-powered Business Phone System.” Put plainly, a tool in this category dials lists fast and logs the outcome.

Channels appears in 3 categories here — Phone Dialers, Call Routing Software, E-Meeting — which usually means it covers more than one job rather than doing a single thing narrowly.

Where it sits in an outbound stack

Most outbound stacks are four layers: the data that decides who you talk to, the channel that carries the message, the writing that earns a reply, and the system of record that remembers what happened. Channels sits in the phone dialers layer. Tools beside it are worth comparing on coverage and price; tools in the other layers are worth wiring to it rather than replacing it with.

Using Channels with M for Mercury

Channels is for the conversation once it exists. Mercury's job is the part before it: finding the right people, writing an opener that sounds like the person sending it, pacing every LinkedIn touch inside safe limits, and putting every reply in one inbox. A positive reply leaves Mercury as a booked conversation — which is where a tool like Channels takes over.
