• Send an internal notification to your sales person

• Send a text

• Suggest email templates to use

• Starting condition: contact becomes an MQL and Lead owner is set

• Notification email is sent to that salesperson

• CRM task is set for one day from now

• Include a recommended email/call template on that task

• Goal list is lead status changes to contacted, or contact becomes an SQL

• When you set a goal list like this, you can include more CRM tasks in your workflow

• Make sure you get buy-in from sales, but these can reference additional content to move people to a response
