Outreach channels

Email, LinkedIn and WhatsApp outreach, coordinated in one sequence

FollowThroo supports three outreach channels: email, LinkedIn and WhatsApp. Each one runs through its own provider or companion app, with its own limits, and all three share the same leads, sequences, suppression list and stop-on-reply rule.

Email

Sends from mailboxes your workspace connects: Gmail and Google Workspace, Zoho Mail, or any SMTP mailbox. Includes personalized templates, open and click tracking, reply detection from the connected inbox, one-click unsubscribe, bounce suppression and mailbox warm-up.

Automated: the first email and every follow-up, on the schedule the sequence sets.
Limit: an hourly cap per mailbox, inside the provider's daily limit.

The Chrome extension adds LinkedIn people to your CRM. The FollowThroo Windows desktop app sends connection requests and messages to connections from your own LinkedIn session. Replies on LinkedIn are read back into the inbox.

Automated: invitations, invitation notes you choose, and messages to 1st-degree connections.
Not automated: InMail and profile visits.
Limit: up to 20 invitations per account per day, or a lower cap you choose.

Sends from your own WhatsApp Business number, connected in Settings through Meta's official WhatsApp Business Platform. Messages that start a conversation use templates approved by Meta, and contacts must have opted in.

Automated: template messages as sequence steps, and replies inside the 24-hour window.
Limit: Meta's messaging tier, starting at 250 unique contacts per 24 hours.

What the channels share

Channels are a property of a sequence step, not separate tools. The same lead record, suppression list, credit balance and reporting sit behind all three, so a team can see every touch a lead received and why each step did or did not run.

A reply on any channel stops the lead's remaining steps on every channel.
An unsubscribe or hard bounce suppresses the contact everywhere.
Every send is paced by server-side rate limits and paid for in credits only when it actually goes out.

Choosing a channel order

There is no single right order. Teams selling to people who live on LinkedIn often start with a connection request and follow up by email. Teams whose buyers answer WhatsApp faster use it after a first email, for contacts who have opted in. Condition steps let a sequence change course based on whether a lead opened, clicked or replied.
