What are Outreach Sequences?
An Outreach Sequence is a series of personalized automated messages that target a desired candidate. The messages are set to match your voice and be sent at specific intervals.
An Outreach Sequence is comprised of stages. A stage is a message set to be sent at a specific time. An Outreach sequence must have at least one stage.
Each Outreach Sequence is associated with a specific Project.
