After that, Buzzstream will suggest you choose Sequences that you have created before or that you can create at the moment. Sequences are different variants of pitch you want to try to make A/B testing of to see what subject line or pitch itself works better.

The sequences tab is where you can save all the pitches that you’re gonna use for different informational occasions.

Set up follow-up letters

By clicking “+” in the right corner of your letter, you will see the extra space beneath to create a follow-up letter. There it will be possible to choose whether you want it to be sent automatically after a certain time or you want to be reminded to do it by hand in a couple of days.

Plan your followups according to the 3-3-7 formula:

  • 1st follow-up in 3 days

  • 2d follow-up in another 3 days

  • 3d follow-up in 7 days

As the email is and followups are ready, you can start outreach by personalizing each email for the contacts from your list.
