Short summary: Merge tags replace your tag with the information we have found on your lead.
What are merge tags?
Merge tags are dynamic code snippets that automatically insert customized content into your emails. They are used to personalize messages based on the recipient's information, such as their name, company, domain, or other variables such as the current quarter.

How do I use merge tags in LeadPilot?
Good to know:
LeadPilot automatically distinguishes between what is a first name and what is a last name in your leads. If you upload a list to LeadPilot where first names and last names are in the same column, LeadPilot will thus detect which is the first name and which is the last name.
