When they reply, a person takes over.

Add reply-pause events so a customer question reaches a person instead of continuing through automated follow-ups.

BEFORE YOU SWITCH IT ON

Make this flow your own.

New customers who need an introduction to the team and a clear picture of what happens next.

  1. 01

    Choose your won-deal segment, owner, and service collaborators.

  2. 02

    Adapt the welcome, check-in, and review messages to your onboarding milestones.

  3. 03

    Test the timing and ensure existing customers are not accidentally enrolled.

This is a recipe to build in your account, not a one-click import. Review contact permissions, timing, and reply-pause rules before starting.
