Bring unanswered proposals back into view each week
Review the proposals your data marks as awaiting a response and get a small set of follow-up drafts ready in Gmail.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create email draft
Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.
Why this helps
A proposal with no reply can slip out of sight when the next action depends on remembering to check.
- Make outstanding proposals part of a recurring review.
- Use your own follow-up criteria and timing.
- Review drafts before contacting clients.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Better Proposals and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to draft a brief check-in for proposals your supplied data marks as awaiting a response, using your stated follow-up criteria.
- 4Choose notis_cron as the trigger and select a weekly schedule.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one proposal awaiting a response.
Questions about this workflow
Can the workflow determine how long a proposal has been unanswered?
Only if the relevant dates are included in the data available to Notis. Specify the timing you want it to use.
Will it contact clients automatically?
