Training Webinar: Automated Follow-Ups

With Automated Follow-ups, you can create reusable templates of configured follow-up activities that volunteer-staff users can add to Contact Records in just a few clicks. Templates make creating follow-up activities faster and easier for your volunteer-staff users, create standardized follow-up schedules and support forecasting and reporting. Your templates can include manual activities you complete by phone, meeting in person, or letter mail, in addition to automated activities that iCarol will send via Email or SMS on your behalf. When also subscribed to Public Web Forms, your automated SMS or email activities can include a link to a survey allowing for additional data collection.

Automated Follow-ups are intended to complement your existing follow-up program, build capacity, allow you to reach more people and prioritize your manual and personalized follow-up to those with higher needs and risk.

During this webinar you will learn how to:
  1. Create reusable templates of configured follow-up activities
  2. Schedule those follow-ups automatically when your form is submitted
  3. Send follow-ups by Email or SMS/Text on your behalf according to your templates
  4. Include surveys or other forms in follow-up Emails or SMS/Texts
