Agree the setup before testing.

Start with one service and one inbox. Agree who answers, what they may promise, when to follow up and when to stop. The sample messages are original writing prompts, not a tested customer campaign or an automatic sending tool.

Use a saved reply as a starting point

The bracketed words are editing instructions, not working personalisation fields. Do not paste an unfinished message into an automatic sequence. Check the latest enquiry and adapt the wording before each send. These templates are for relevant customer conversations, not purchased contact lists.

Keep the human decision visible

Approve the message library once, then check the details of each reply. A staff member owns the answer; a manager approves unusual prices, scope or promises. Record the next action and due time. When a customer declines, update the agreed stop process instead of sending another reminder.

Optional: save approved wording in HighLevel

HighLevel calls reusable replies Snippets. Its official guide explains creating an Email Snippet and inserting it into a conversation for review. Saving wording does not by itself create a sending sequence. The supporting article shows a small staff-reviewed setup and the checks needed before any separate automation.

Record the behavior you observed.

All scenarios untested

TEST 01

The reply answers the current question

Use a sample new enquiry and a sample quote question. Ask the reply owner to choose the appropriate message and explain the next action.

Expected outcome

The chosen message fits the latest question and asks for one useful next step.

TEST 02

No bracketed detail reaches the customer

Preview a sample with a missing first name and another with no quote link. Replace or remove every bracketed prompt, then send only to a controlled test inbox.

Expected outcome

No writing prompt or missing detail is sent; unknown information goes back to the reply owner.

TEST 03

Price, availability and timing are approved

Compare a sample quote and proposed reply time with the manager-approved facts. Ask who can approve an exception.

Expected outcome

The reply makes only checked promises; the responsible approver handles exceptions.

TEST 04

Recipient, sender and quote link are correct

Inspect a controlled test email as received, including sender name, reply address, line breaks, any attachment and its quote link. Reply and check the receiving inbox.

Expected outcome

The test reaches the intended inbox and the recipient can reply and open the intended material.

TEST 05

Another person has not already answered

Have two staff members review the same sample request. Check the latest messages and any active automatic follow-up before choosing one sender.

Expected outcome

One person owns the send; existing replies and other automatic messages are checked for overlap.

TEST 06

A refusal or failed send has an owner

Record a sample request to stop and a failed-delivery scenario. Demonstrate how follow-up is stopped and how the responsible person handles the failure.

Expected outcome

A stop request ends follow-up on the enquiry; failed delivery is reviewed without repeated blind resends.
