What is sales follow-up automation?

Sales follow-up automation sends the predictable messages and creates the next steps for you, so leads are contacted promptly without manual tracking.

WHAT IT ISSales follow-up automation uses software to send confirmations and reminders, trigger timed messages and schedule next activities so leads are contacted promptly. In Upward, Journeys start from CRM changes and send, wait and branch, confirmations and reminders go out on their own, and Vutesa drafts messages for you to review before they send.

How it works

Automation handles the predictable steps, such as confirmations, reminders and a check-in after a few days, so people spend time on conversations instead of admin.

Example

A lead moves to Qualified. A Journey sends a welcome email, waits two days, and if it was not opened sends a gentle reminder. If it was opened, it adds the label Warm and notifies the owner.

How Upward addresses it

Journeys use triggers such as a stage change, a label, an open or a click. You can test run a Journey before it goes live, and people already inside stay on the version they started.
