If you’ve ever lost track of a prospect or forgotten to send a follow-up email, you’re not alone. Following up consistently is crucial for closing deals and moving conversations forward but manually doing it every time? That’s where Auto Follow-Ups come in.
Fortunately, auto follow-ups and sequences in Gmail offer a simple and powerful solution. With automation tools like Rebump, you can set up personalized follow-up sequences that send on your behalf—without lifting a finger after hitting send.
Why Auto Follow-Ups Matter
Most replies don’t come from the first email. Studies show that it can take 3–5 follow-ups to get a response. Without a system in place, it’s easy to forget or give up too soon. Automated follow-ups ensure that every lead is nurtured properly, while saving you hours of manual work.
What Are Follow-Up Sequences?
A follow-up sequence is a series of emails sent over time based on your recipient’s behavior—like no reply or email opens. These sequences help keep your emails top of mind and increase your chances of getting a response.
With a tool like Rebump, you can:
- Set custom timing between emails
- Personalize each message with name, company, and tone
- Stop the sequence once someone replies
- Track engagement and improve your messaging
Auto Follow-Ups with Rebump for Maximum Efficiency
Rebump works right inside Gmail and does all the heavy lifting for you. You write your first email, choose your bump sequence, and Rebump handles the rest. It’s like having a smart assistant who never forgets to follow up.
