Follow-up Emails in Mailerfind

What are follow-up emails?


Follow-up emails are automatic messages sent to your contacts when they haven’t replied to the first email you sent.


They are a key part of any prospecting strategy because many times the first email gets lost, isn’t read, or is simply overlooked. With one or two well-written reminders, response rates usually increase significantly.


What are they for?


👉 Increase visibility of your message

👉 Boost response rates without extra manual work

👉 Help you close more leads, because sometimes it just takes a little persistence (done right)


How to create a follow-up email in Mailerfind


🟣 Go to the Emails section


🟣 Create a new email


🟣 Tick the box: “This is a follow-up email”



🟣 Write your email content


🟣 Select the email you want to follow up on and choose the follow-up mode



What do these options mean when setting up a follow-up email?


In email campaigns, not all contacts open or interact with your first message. To avoid losing those opportunities, you can set up a follow-up email, like the one shown in the example.


Here’s what each option means:


✉️ Email to follow up (main email)


Select the original email (the first one you sent). The system will use it as the basis to determine who should receive the follow-up.


🔍 Follow-up mode


Two ways to segment your audience:


🔹 “Recipients who did not open the main email”


Perfect for trying again with a different subject line or angle. Maybe they were busy or just not drawn in by the first subject.


🔹 “Recipients who opened but did not click the main email”


These people saw your email but didn’t take action. Here, you can try a clearer call-to-action or add an incentive.


🟣 Ready to ship


Examples of follow-up emails


📩 1. For those who did NOT open the main email


Subject: Did you see the email I sent you?

Body:

Hi,

I sent you an email a few days ago, but just in case you didn’t see it, here it is again.

I think it might interest you and I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Happy to chat anytime

Best regards,

[Your Name]


🖱️ 2. For those who DID open the email but DID NOT click


Subject: Would what I proposed work for you?

Body:

Hi,

I noticed you opened my previous email, so I wanted to know if what I suggested worked for you.

I believe it could bring you great value and save you a lot of time if applied properly.

If you’d like more details, I’d be happy to explain how you could get the most out of it.

Shall we take a look together?

Best regards,

[Your Name]


💡 These messages work because they don’t pressure, but they re-engage the contact with a single clear goal per email.
