Interest Checker

The Interest Checker workflow re-engages inactive leads by sending a message, classifying their response with AI, and taking automated follow-up actions based on the result.

How it works

1. Send an interest check message

The workflow sends a message asking the lead to reply with a number indicating their current status:

Hi {{contact.firstName}},

You reached out to us about our [product/service] some time ago.
Just reply with the number that best describes your situation:

1 - Yes, I'm still interested
2 - Not right now, but maybe later
3 - I've already found a solution
4 - Not interested, but keep me updated
5 - Please remove me from your contact list

The workflow then waits for the contact's response.

2. AI classification

The AI classifies responses into categories:

Response typeClassification
Clear positive interest, no questionsInterested (No Question Asked)
Positive interest with questionsInterested (Question Asked)
"Not now", "maybe later", "found a solution"Not Interested (Future OK)
"Don't contact me", explicit opt-outNot Interested (Do-Not-Disturb)
Ambiguous or unclearInterest Unknown

The AI handles both numeric replies (matching the numbered options) and natural language responses.

3. Automated follow-up actions

All lead records are created in the Leads Management (AI) pipeline.

Video walkthrough

Evaluate AI classification accuracy

Run the campaign manually

  1. Select the contacts you want to target.

  2. Add them to the Interest Checker workflow.

  3. Configure batch settings:

    • Batch size: 1
    • Interval: 5 minutes
    • Days: Monday–Sunday
    • Time window: e.g., 10:00 AM – 9:00 PM

    Slower batch processing reduces the risk of triggering WhatsApp spam filters.

  4. Monitor progress on the Bulk Actions page.

Customise the message

  1. Open the Interest Checker workflow in the editor.
  2. Edit the Send WhatsApp action containing the initial message.
  3. Save and test with a test contact.

Filter leads by classification

After the campaign, filter leads on the Leads page using:
