Frequently asked questions

Does email send from the rep's actual Gmail address?
Yes. Requires Google Workspace OAuth connection. Emails appear from the rep's own address.
Does it respect Gmail sending limits?
Yes. AI throttles sends to stay within Google Workspace sending limits (500/day standard, 2000/day Workspace).
Can it handle out-of-office auto-replies intelligently?
Yes. OOO replies are detected and the sequence is paused and resumed on the return date.
How personalised can the email content be?
AI uses prospect's LinkedIn, company news, and role-specific pain points for hyper-personalisation.
What improvement in reply rate is typical?
Omnichannel sequences (Gmail + WhatsApp) achieve 3× higher reply rates than email-only sequences.

Conclusion

The Gmail Sales Sequence + WhatsApp Follow-Up Agent template takes a workflow that typically consumes Sales team time and hands it to an autonomous AI Employee. Scope the responsibility, connect the systems of record that confirm completion, and agree the escalation path before launch. Define a baseline and a measurement period so the result can be evaluated against your current process rather than an assumed benchmark.
