Email automation sends the right message when a lead does something, without you remembering to. Done right, it nurtures leads at scale; done wrong, it feels like spam. Here's how to automate nurturing that converts.
Essential automated flows
- Welcome / delivery flow after a download or sign-up
- Educational sequence over 4โ8 weeks
- Behaviour triggers: pricing page visit, repeat visits, demo page views
- Re-engagement after 60โ90 days of silence
- Post-meeting follow-up with recap and resources
Connect automation to scoring
Add points for opens, clicks, visits and replies, subtract for inactivity, and alert sales when a threshold is passed. See automate lead scoring.
What not to automate
- Replies to a real question
- First outreach to high-value accounts
- Anything after a lead says they're not interested
Deliverability basics
Authenticate your domain (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), keep lists clean, offer easy unsubscribe. See avoid spam folders.
Measure
Track meetings and revenue from each flow, not opens.
For first outreach, keep it personal: send from your own Gmail with a preview link, then track follow-ups in the CRM.
