Follow-up? You don't have to!
You just captured a new lead. Bigin, of course, sends the welcome email. But what happens next?
Sequences handles the rest. Based on how long it's been and how they interacted with your first email, it automatically triggers the next step, whether that's a follow-up email, or a task for your team.

Every contact is unique. Their follow-ups should be too.
What do an Instagram lead, a referral, and a returning customer have in common? Nothing. So why should the outreach targeting them be the same?
With Sequences, you can set up a unique engagement flow for every lead and customer profile, so each one gets the right content, at the right time, in the right tone.

Automation that is behavior and
context driven.
Sequences doesn't just send emails hoping for the best. Every next step is based on how the previous one was received.
If someone opened your New Year offer email, a follow-up is sent with a reminder before the offer expires. If they didn't open it at all, it goes out again. If it bounced, a call is scheduled for your agent to reach out. The first email is the same for everyone. Everything after that is not.

Track how your sequences are performing,
end to end.
Identify which step of a sequence has the most drop-off and get detailed insights into every task, call, and email triggered by the sequence, all in one dashboard. And as for every individual contact, their full sequence history, is present right in their record.

FAQs
A Sequence is a series of automated, response-based follow-ups that help you engage leads and customers through emails, tasks, and calls. Each follow-up triggers the next action based on timing or how the contact responded, creating a personalized engagement journey.
Workflows automate a single action triggered by a business event like a field update, a new record, or an email received. Sequences automate a series of follow-up actions over time, adapting based on how the contact responds at each step. Use Workflows for one-time process automation and Sequences for ongoing customer engagement.
Sequences can be created for Team Pipelines and Contacts modules.
Sequences are available on Bigin Premier and Bigin 360. Premier supports up to 20 active sequences with 20 actions each. Bigin 360 supports up to 40 active sequences with 40 actions each.
You can enroll records manually from a record's detail page or in bulk from the list view (up to 100 records at a time). For custom view-based sequences, records are enrolled automatically when they meet the view criteria.
Yes. A single record can be enrolled in up to five sequences simultaneously.
Editing a published sequence creates a draft version. The live sequence continues running for already-enrolled records without interruption. Once your changes are ready, click Republish to make the updated version active.
Only records sitting on a follow-up that was directly modified are affected. They are automatically unenrolled from that step and must be restarted. Records on unmodified follow-ups continue without interruption.
Yes. You can configure auto-unenrollment when a reply is received on any email in the sequence, when a specific date is reached, or when the record no longer matches the custom view criteria.
Email, task, and call. Note: call follow-ups are only available for the Contacts module, not Team Pipelines.
No. For the Replied condition to work, the Reply To address must be IMAP-synced in Bigin. Without IMAP sync, replies cannot be detected and the sequence will not branch based on responses.
Yes. Emails sent through Sequences count toward your organization's Automation Emails sending limit.
Yes. For stopped or failed records, you can Resume (continue from where it stopped) or Restart (begin from the first follow-up). For completed records, only Restart is available. Note: re-enrollment is currently supported only for manually enrolled sequences.
Yes. Cloning copies all follow-ups and settings into a new draft. Note: you cannot change the module when cloning. The cloned sequence must be for the same module as the original.
From the Sequence configuration page, click View Reports. You can switch between Follow-up View (stats on the sequence tree) and Report View (aggregate numbers broken down by emails, tasks, and calls, with date range filters).
Yes. Smart filters let you find records based on their participation in a sequence, whether currently enrolled, completed, or those who responded to a specific follow-up.

Bigin is easy to use for a growing organisation like Ammacus. The platform is very intuitive, saves time when it comes to entering duplicate information, and has saved us many hours in lost productivity. As an early adopter of Bigin, we look forward to continued new applications and developments to make the platform even better than it is today. In addition, we have received fantastic client support when it was required.
Have been using Bigin for quite sometime now and am all but amazed by the simplicity of the tool. It's clean, functional and easy to use. I am able to track my sales pipeline and plan accordingly. Cheers to Team Zoho for making this efficient and cost-effective tool.
I had been searching for an affordable, user-friendly CRM for our tech startup business, Kiteline Health. Following a lot of research, trials, and demonstrations, we decided that Bigin was the most complete package and signed up. We are delighted with our choice and would recommend it to any small/startup/medium-sized business looking for a small cost with maximum efficiency.
