Sequence statuses
A throttled badge means the sequence is being slowed down. Hover it to see why. A stalled badge means it has live leads but nothing is going out: see Stall alerts.
Activate
Click Activate. Unsaved changes are saved first, then Final check before going live runs. It usually takes 10 to 20 seconds. It checks the steps and, if AI is set up, reviews your copy for tone, length and personalization.- Items in red must be fixed before activating. See Checks while you build.
- Warnings can be accepted with Activate anyway.
Estimate how long it will take
Open the Senders tab and click Estimate under How long will it take?. Enter a number of leads (1,000 by default) and click Project. You’ll get an estimate such as 1,000 leads ≈ 23 days on 3 senders; bottleneck: invitations, with a breakdown by action type. The estimate takes into account each sender’s warm-up level, health, manual caps, working days and the weekly invitation limit. A row is added for the waits and delays along the longest path.Enroll leads
Open the Leads tab in the builder, or select leads on the Leads page and use Enrol in sequence.1
Choose leads
Filter by search, client, list, stage or tag, then tick leads or Select all matching. Do-not-contact leads are hidden unless you turn on Include do-not-contact.
2
Choose the sender
Leave it on the pool’s assignment rule, or pick a Fixed sender. Set a Priority from 1 to 1000. Lower numbers are planned first; the default is 100.
3
Read the preview
Before anything happens, the preview shows exactly who is eligible, who is excluded and why, which sender each lead would get, and how long it will take. Nothing has been enrolled yet.
4
Review and confirm
Click Enrol N leads. The rules are checked again at that moment, so a lead who replied in the meantime is still skipped.
What the preview tells you
Replied recently lists up to 50 of those people with the date and channel, so you can see who they are. Tick Include leads who replied recently to enrol them anyway.
You can enroll up to 10,000 leads at a time. A lead can have only one live enrollment per sender. Leads enrolled into a draft or paused sequence wait at Start until it’s active.
How leads are given a sender
Set the rule under How leads are shared on the builder’s Senders tab.
The preview reports how many leads each rule moved or skipped: moved to a fresh sender, kept with the previous sender, contacted before by this sender.
Waiting before the first step
Two sequence settings can hold a lead at the start:- Wait for profile enrichment: until the lead’s profile data arrives, or 72 hours, whichever comes first.
- Hold until AI-written lines are approved: until someone approves the lead’s AI line.
Pause, archive and edit safely
- Pause pauses every live enrollment and cancels queued actions. Waits and delays keep counting. Resume re-plans each lead’s current step in the next working hours.
- Archive ends every live enrollment (reason sequence archived) and cancels queued actions. You can move the sequence back to draft later.
