Use Sortd (ai-assistant) to automate the follow-up process for [SALES_LEAD_NAME]'s inquiry about [PRODUCT/SERVICE]. Create a kanban board in Sortd with columns for 'New Inquiries', 'Needs Response', 'Follow-Up Required', and 'Closed - Won/Lost'. Assign the task to [SALES_REP_NAME] with a due date of [DUE_DATE]. Include a template response for the initial follow-up email and suggest 3 follow-up actions based on the lead's response time.
### Sortd Kanban Board Setup for Acme Corp Lead Follow-Up **Board Name:** "Acme Corp - Product X Inquiry" (Created in Sortd for Gmail) **Columns & Tasks:** 1. **New Inquiries** - *Task:* "Acme Corp - Initial Inquiry about Product X" - *Assigned to:* Sarah Johnson (Sales Rep) - *Due Date:* November 15, 2023 - *Email Thread:* Original inquiry from [email protected] ("We're interested in Product X for our team of 50. Can you provide pricing and a demo?") - *Tags:* #high-priority, #product-x 2. **Needs Response** - *Task:* "Follow up with Acme Corp pricing request" - *Template Email:* ``` Subject: Product X Pricing & Demo for Acme Corp Hi [Contact Name], Thank you for your interest in Product X! Below are the pricing tiers for your team of 50: - Starter: $49/user/month (up to 20 users) - Professional: $39/user/month (21-100 users) - Enterprise: Custom pricing (100+ users) We’d love to schedule a 15-minute demo to show how Product X can streamline your workflows. Are you available [suggest 3 time slots]? Looking forward to your reply! Best, Sarah Johnson Sales Representative ``` 3. **Follow-Up Required** - *Task:* "Check in with Acme Corp if no response by Nov 20" - *Follow-Up Actions:* - Send a LinkedIn message to the contact (if connected). - Call the main line and ask to be transferred to the decision-maker. - Share a case study of a similar company using Product X. 4. **Closed - Won** (if successful) - *Task:* "Acme Corp - Contract Signed" - *Next Steps:* Schedule onboarding call with the implementation team. **Additional Notes:** - The kanban board is shared with the entire sales team for visibility. - Sortd’s AI features flagged this lead as "high urgency" due to the 48-hour response time window. - The board includes a custom field for "Estimated Deal Size" ($12,000/year) to prioritize high-value leads. **Outcome:** After sending the initial email, Acme Corp replied within 2 hours requesting a demo. Sarah scheduled it for November 17 and moved the task to "Follow-Up Required". The deal closed on November 22, with a signed contract for the Professional tier.
