▶ What is this Article?
This Article outlines the step-by-step process to end all follow-up communications and automations for a contact within your CRM or pipeline. This is typically used when a lead has taken final action (e.g., approved estimate, marked lost/won), and follow-up sequences are no longer necessary.
▶ Why do we use this?
To prevent redundant or irrelevant follow-up messages being sent to leads or clients who no longer require them, thereby improving customer experience and avoiding confusion.
✅Triggering End All Comms via Opportunity Status Change
▶ Instructions:
-
Go to your pipeline view inside your CRM.
-
Locate the opportunity (contact) that should be removed from future workflows.
-
Drag the opportunity to one of the following designated statuses:
-
Abandoned
-
Won
-
Lost
-
-
These statuses are connected to the “End All Comms” automation trigger, which will remove the contact from all associated workflows.
-
This process will not mark the contact as DND (Do Not Disturb); it only stops current and future automated follow-ups.
📝 Pro Tip:
Ensure you do not use a similarly named but inactive status bucket. Confirm your pipeline's status matches the automation trigger settings exactly.
✅ Triggering End All Comms via Tagging
▶ Instructions:
-
Open the contact profile within your CRM.
-
Add the following tag to the contact:
end_text
-
This tag is another automation trigger that will remove the contact from all active workflows.
-
-
If you'd prefer to use a different tag label, contact leadership or the automations team to have it updated in the system logic.
📌 Note:
Make sure the tag spelling is exact, including underscores or dashes. Incorrect tag formatting will not activate the automation.
✅ Verifying Communication Has Ended
▶ Instructions:
-
Open the contact record.
-
Click into the Automations/Workflows tab or section.
-
Confirm that the contact has been removed from all active workflows.
-
Additionally, you can review the Execution Logs within the “End All Comms” automation to confirm the contact's removal.
