Follow-Up Engine

The days after the call, run on the same cadence engine as everything else, with a phone step in the middle of the mail. What makes it an outbound page rather than a marketing one is that the rep's logged outcome is what decides the next step.

The mechanism

How it works.

01

The phone is a step, not a separate tool

A call step puts a task on the record's owner part-way through the cadence. The rep rings, closes it with one of five words, and that word is written back against the run, where a fork further down the canvas reads it. Mail tools cannot see that word at all, which is the whole reason this page exists.

02

What puts somebody in, and what steers them once they are

A record being created, a stage moving, a tag landing, or somebody adding them by hand or from a list. The wrap-up code a rep picks afterwards steers a cadence rather than starting one: its behaviour books the callback or sets do-not-call, and the branch downstream reads the outcome that was logged.

03

Two channels, timed against each other

Email and SMS sit as steps on the same canvas rather than in two tools somebody reconciles. Mail departs on whichever outgoing server this workspace configured; the text lands in the thread the rep can already see on the record. A text at ten and a mail at four are one plan with one set of waits between them.

04

What the reporting counts

Sends, opens and clicks per sequence, and the branch each person took, all read off the run itself. It is engagement per step rather than a claim about which call a touch produced, because the run knows what it did and not what somebody else's phone did next.

Where it sits

One moment in every call.

Every call passes through the same seven. Follow-Up Engine is the lit one, and everything either side of it is a different page in this category.

8 facts
Enrolled by
Record creation, a stage moving, a tag landing, a manual add, a list action, or a call-flow node
Steps available
Send mail, pause, ask what they did, split, raise a call task, send a text, tag, goal, end
Branching on a call
One of five words the rep picks when closing the task: answered, voicemail, busy, wrong number, nobody picked up
Reply window
Thirty days from the send, matched on the person rather than on message headers
Email
Departs on the workspace's configured outgoing server, carrying a pixel and rewritten links
SMS
A step like any other on the canvas, and its message joins the conversation the rep reads in the inbox
Opt-out
The suppression roll, checked when somebody is enrolled and again inside the send
Not the same as
Email Sequences is this same engine described from the canvas. This page is the case for putting the phone inside it
