# Sequence Templates

> Start a sequence from a ready-made flow for connecting, following up, rotating senders or nurturing connected leads.

A template gives you a working sequence in one click. You then edit the copy and timing, pick the senders, and activate. Nothing is sent before you activate.

## Use a template

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the templates">
    Go to **Sequences**, click **New sequence** and choose **Start from a template**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick one">
    Each template shows what it does in plain words, a numbered list of what happens to a lead, and a preview of the steps.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Name it and create it">
    Change the **Name** if you like, pick an optional **Client**, and click **Create and open**. The steps open in the builder as a draft, saved as version 1.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Finish it in the builder">
    Edit the messages and waits on the **Steps** tab, choose the senders on the **Senders** tab, then **Activate**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

All templates except the nurture one start the same way. An **Already connected?** check skips leads the sender is already connected to. Everyone else gets a connection request without a note. The sequence then waits up to 10 days for the answer, visiting the profile and liking a post in the meantime.

## The templates

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Connect" icon="user-plus">
    The simplest way to grow a network. Invitations still pending after 10 days are withdrawn so they do not pile up.

    * **Accepted:** finish.
    * **Not accepted:** withdraw the invitation and finish.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Connect and follow up" icon="message">
    Same as Connect, plus a short automatic thank-you message the day after the lead accepts. The wording is spun, so every lead gets a slightly different line.

    * **Accepted:** wait a day, send a thank-you message, finish.
    * **Not accepted:** withdraw the invitation and finish.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Connect and manual follow-up" icon="clipboard-list">
    Same as Connect, but the follow-up is a task for a teammate instead of an automatic message. The task carries tips for a personal compliment and a casual question. Best when the first message should not read like a template.

    * **Accepted:** wait a day, then create a task to write and send a personal note.
    * **Not accepted:** withdraw the invitation and finish.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Rotate senders until connected" icon="rotate">
    Connect and follow up, with a second chance. When an invitation is not accepted, it is withdrawn, the lead rests for two weeks, and the next sender in the pool starts from the top. Up to two extra senders try before the lead is given up.

    * **Accepted:** wait a day, send a thank-you message, finish.
    * **Not accepted:** withdraw, wait 2 weeks, hand the lead to the next sender, up to 2 times.

    <Note>Needs two or more senders in the pool, otherwise there is nobody to rotate to.</Note>
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Connect every sender to every lead" icon="users">
    Builds the whole team's network at once. After one sender connects, the lead rests for five days and the next sender sends their own invitation. Ignored invitations are withdrawn and the next sender tries two weeks later. No messages are sent.

    * **Accepted:** wait 5 days, then the next sender starts from the top.
    * **Not accepted:** withdraw, wait 2 weeks, then the next sender starts from the top.

    <Note>Needs two or more senders in the pool.</Note>
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Nurture and follow up connected leads" icon="heart">
    For leads who are already connected but went quiet. Three rounds of a two-week pause and a like on their latest post keep the sender visible. A short "long time no chat" message then reopens the conversation. Leads who are not connected to the sender leave the sequence after a day.

    1. Only continue with leads the sender is connected to.
    2. Wait 2 weeks, like their latest post. This happens three times.
    3. Send a casual check-in message and finish.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>
