The problem

The manual process this system replaces.

Follow-up often stops after the first message because sales teams must remember timing, check replies, update the CRM, and decide who should receive the next touch. Prospects are lost even when the original enquiry was a good fit.

How it works

From trigger to business outcome.

This is the defined operating sequence. During implementation, each step is mapped to the agreed accounts, fields, rules, and review points.

  1. 01Lead becomes eligible
  2. 02Check rules
  3. 03Select message
  4. 04Send follow-up
  5. 05Watch response
  6. 06Stop or continue
  7. 07Update CRM
Defined implementation flowConfigured for each customer
  1. STEP / 01

    Lead becomes eligible

    An agreed CRM status or intake event places the lead into the follow-up flow.

  2. STEP / 02

    Check rules

    Consent, status, timing, opt-out, and other stop conditions are checked.

  3. STEP / 03

    Select message

    The next approved message is chosen from the configured sequence.

  4. STEP / 04

    Send follow-up

    The message is sent through the connected customer-owned inbox.

  5. STEP / 05

    Watch response

    The workflow waits for the agreed interval and checks for a reply or booking.

  6. STEP / 06

    Stop or continue

    Replies and opt-outs stop the sequence; eligible leads continue to the next step.

  7. STEP / 07

    Update CRM

    The follow-up status and relevant activity are recorded for the sales team.

Requirements

What you may need to provide.

Some automations require separate third-party accounts, subscriptions, or usage-based API costs. These are not included unless explicitly stated.

Bounded customization

Adapted where it supports the same outcome.

Sequence timing, approved copy, eligibility rules, stop conditions, and CRM fields can be adapted within the defined follow-up process. Additional channels, complex campaign branching, or deliverability work is scoped separately.

The listed automation is a defined starting system, not unlimited custom development. Any material change in outcome, integration set, or operating scope is reviewed and priced separately.

Implementation

A clear path from request to handoff.

Timing depends on access, the connected tools, and the confirmed configuration. No fixed delivery estimate is assumed on this page.
