Adding Follow-ups and Adjusting Sending Options

Once you’ve created an Outbound Campaign, you can manage and edit your follow-up messages. Follow-up messages will reach the candidate when the candidate does not respond to the First Message or the previous follow-up.

Adding Follow-up Messages

When creating a Campaign, 3 follow-up messages will be automatically created. They will automatically be sent out depending on the number of days set between messages, by default the follow-ups will send out 3 days from the previous message. 

When a Candidate responds (which includes email bounces or automated out-of-office responses), the follow-ups will stop automatically and the Candidate Status will change to "Responded". Check out Handling Candidate Replies for more details on Candidate responses.
