Quote follow-up
Estimates and proposals chased on a schedule until you get a yes or a no.
Automated Lead Follow-Up
Most leads are lost in the gap between "interested" and "ready". Follow-up automation covers that gap.
In short
Follow-up automation sends a planned series of SMS and email messages to a lead over days or weeks, automatically, and stops the moment the person replies or books. It means nobody has to remember to chase, and no enquiry goes quiet simply because your team got busy.
The Problem
Following up is the job everyone intends to do tomorrow.
- A lead says "send me some information" and is never contacted again.
- Follow-up depends on someone's memory, a sticky note or a spreadsheet.
- Busy weeks mean no chasing at all — usually the weeks with the most leads.
- People give up after one or two attempts.
- Nobody knows which leads have been contacted and which have not.
The Solution
A sequence that behaves like a good salesperson
We build sequences that are useful rather than nagging: a same-day message, a helpful follow-up with the information they asked for, a check-in a few days later, and a final "should we close this off?" message that gets a surprising number of replies. Each message is written for your business and approved by you.
The sequence stops instantly when the person replies, books, or asks to be left alone. Replies route to a human or to the AI depending on what they say, and every message is logged against the contact so anyone picking up the conversation can see the history.
Use Cases

Questions
Automated Follow-Up questions, answered
How many messages is too many?
We usually start with four to six over two weeks and adjust based on reply and opt-out rates. The aim is to be useful, not relentless — a sequence that annoys people costs you more than it earns.
Does it stop when someone replies?
Yes, immediately. Nothing is worse than a lead answering and then receiving the next scheduled chase.
Can people opt out?
Yes. Every SMS sequence includes opt-out handling, and opt-outs are respected across all future messages automatically.
Can I write the messages myself?
Yes, and many clients do. We draft them, you edit and approve, and you can change them at any point.
Does it work with my CRM?
It works with GoHighLevel natively and can integrate with platforms including HubSpot and Salesforce, or through Zapier and Make where a direct connection isn't available.
