How it works
When a contact stops responding, the agent waits, then sends a short, low-pressure nudge that picks up where the conversation left off. It keeps doing this on a schedule until the contact replies, the attempt limit is reached, or they opt out. Every nudge respects your compliance rules first:- It never messages an opted-out contact.
- It only sends within your texting/calling hours.
- It stops once the follow-up limit is reached.
Setting the cadence
The re-engagement cadence is plain-language guidance you can edit on the agent (see Configuring an agent). The field comes pre-filled with a proven default schedule; adjust it to make follow-ups more or less persistent for your audience.Dormant conversations
Once the follow-up limit is reached without a reply, the conversation goes dormant — a paused, non-final state. This is kept distinct from a closed outcome so your reporting can tell the difference between “went quiet” and “finished.”If a dormant contact texts back later, the conversation reactivates right where it left off and the follow-up budget resets — the agent picks the thread back up with full memory of the earlier exchange.
