The drafts-folder pattern — automating communication safely

Two hundred leads a month and you follow up with sixty. Full automation would cover all two hundred but would send messages you have not seen to prospects you have not qualified. So you do neither, and 140 leads get nothing.

You need

Communication: first follow-up to Indiamart leads. Trigger: a new lead arrives.

Tool

Apps Script writing to Gmail drafts

You get

1. SIX PARTS — Trigger: new row in the leads sheet.

Time saved

Coverage from 60 to 178 leads a month, with roughly 35 minutes of approval time replacing what would have been four hours of writing.
