When to use it, when not to

Use it

  • Use it when SDRs currently open each qualified contact and manually click "Enroll in sequence." This removes that click.
  • Use it when your Lead status values are consistent and someone (rep or a scoring workflow) reliably sets the qualified value.

Skip it

  • Do not use it if multiple sequences could apply depending on persona or product interest. Branch first (see Variants) or you will enroll everyone into one generic sequence.
  • Do not use it for contacts without a real owner. Sequence emails send from a specific HubSpot user; an unowned contact has nobody to send from and the action fails silently for that record.
