The Story
Before
The sales team sent hundreds of outreach emails weekly, but tracking who hadn't replied was a nightmare. Promising leads went cold because follow-ups fell through the cracks. The CRM had "tasks" for follow-ups, but nobody had time to check them. Money was literally being left on the table.
After
Every unreplied email now gets tracked automatically. On day 3, a gentle "just checking in" follow-up goes out. If still no reply, day 8 brings a different angle. The AI writes each follow-up fresh, referencing the original conversation. Sales reps only step in when there's a reply — the nurturing happens without them.
Context
Project Details
Starting Point
B2B sales team sending 200+ outreach emails per week, with no systematic follow-up process
Constraint
Follow-ups had to feel personal, not automated. Each email needed to reference the specific original conversation.
Risk
Over-following-up could damage relationships. System needed smart limits and exclusion rules.
Success Metric
30%+ increase in response rates, zero complaints about "spam" or "too many emails"
What We Did Not Do
We didn't spam people. Maximum 2 follow-ups per thread. After that, the lead is marked for manual review.
We didn't use generic templates. Every follow-up is generated fresh by AI, referencing the specific context of the original email.
We didn't follow up on everything. Internal emails, support tickets, and existing customer threads are automatically excluded.
We didn't hide the automation. Sales reps can see which follow-ups went out and override the system anytime.
