"Can I automatically follow up with prospects who have shown interest?"

Overview: When a prospect replies to your message, Spear automatically pauses the outreach sequence to prevent automated follow-ups. To continue nurturing interested prospects without manual follow-ups each time, use a dedicated post-interest campaign.

Step 1 — Create a "Post-Interest" campaign

Go to Campaigns → + New Campaign → select Existing Network.

Choose campaign type dialog with the Existing network option highlighted

Set up your follow-up sequence to schedule a call, start a trial, or whatever your next step is.

Step 2 — Move the prospect to the new campaign. When you see a positive response in your inbox:

  1. Go to the Prospects tab
  2. Search for the prospect
Approved prospects list with one prospect row selected and highlighted

    3. Click "Move to campaign"

Approved prospects list with one prospect selected and the Move to campaign option highlighted

   4. Select your Post-Interest campaign

Move prospects to campaign dialog with the campaign list open on the Suggestions screen

The prospect will now enter your new automated sequence automatically.

Note This is currently a manual step — there is no automatic trigger to switch campaigns based on a reply. The move needs to be done from the Prospects tab each time a prospect shows interest.
