Question 1

How many follow-up messages should an AI send to a B2C prospect?

Accepted Answer

Three to five touches over seven to fourteen days is typical for considered purchases. For impulse or lower-ticket items, one to two follow-ups within 48 hours is often sufficient. The sequence design depends on purchase value and typical decision cycle.

Question 2

Does automated follow-up feel intrusive to consumers?

Accepted Answer

Not when it is well-timed and genuinely useful. Follow-up that addresses real questions and provides genuine value is experienced as helpful. Follow-up that simply asks 'did you decide yet?' is not. The content and timing of each message matter.

Question 3

Can AI follow-up handle discount or promotion decisions?

Accepted Answer

Yes. AI employees can be configured with promotion rules - offering a specific discount after a defined number of days, or applying a promo code to recover an abandoned cart. Human approval is only required when promotions fall outside pre-approved parameters.
