What You Need To Know
When a business doesn’t respond to leads quickly, there’s a high chance those prospects will lose interest. In Pulse Group’s case, agents were also spending too much time managing tasks instead of actually speaking with potential clients. They needed a setup that could handle the repetitive work automatically, keep follow-ups consistent, and give managers better visibility into what was happening across the sales process.
Why It Matters
Pulse Group wanted a better way to handle new leads and follow-ups. Their team was managing most outreach manually, which often caused delays and made it hard to keep a consistent process. Mostly, leads were contacted late, while at other times, agents had too many tasks at once. They needed a system that could automatically organize follow-ups and make sure every lead received timely attention without adding extra work for the team.
What HIC Did
HIC implemented Salesforce automation to simplify how leads, appointments, and accounts were managed. We created automated follow-up sequences that trigger based on the lead’s status and the time it was assigned. We also added logic to stop outreach when a lead moves forward in the process. Along with this, we designed dashboards that made it easy for managers to see task activity, missed appointments, and account status in real time.
Challenges Faced
Bottlenecks slowing every hand-off
Follow-Ups Were Hard to Manage
The team was handling most follow-ups manually. Agents had to remember when to call, text, or reach out again. Because of this, some leads were contacted late, and the process didn’t always stay consistent.
No Clear Follow-Up Process
There wasn’t a fixed structure for how agents should follow up with leads. Everyone handled outreach in their own way. This sometimes created gaps and made the process less organized.
Too Much Time Spent Managing Tasks
Agents were spending a lot of time tracking tasks and reminders. Instead of focusing on conversations with potential clients, they were busy managing follow-up activities.
Limited Visibility for Managers
Managers didn’t have a clear view of what was happening in the pipeline. It was difficult to quickly see overdue tasks or missed appointments. This made it harder to identify where the process needed improvement.

Solutions Offered by HIC
One pipeline, from record discovery to secure delivery
Automated Lead Follow-Up Cadence
HIC set up a structured automated follow-up process that starts follow-up tasks as soon as a new lead is assigned. The system schedules calls, texts, and voicemails automatically. This helps the team reach out to leads at the right time.
Smart Exit Logic
The automation stops automatically when a lead moves forward in the process. For example, when a lead is scheduled or converted, the follow-up sequence ends. This prevents unnecessary outreach.
Appointment and Account Follow-Up Automation
If someone misses their first appointment, the system automatically starts a follow-up process. This gives the team another chance to reconnect with the prospect. It also keeps the process organized.
Clear Dashboards and Reporting
Created simple dashboards that help managers track tasks and appointments. They can quickly see overdue activities and accounts that need attention. This makes it easier to monitor team performance.
Standardized Workflow
All automation follows the same timing and process for every lead. This makes the workflow more consistent for the entire team. It also ensures every lead gets the same level of attention.
