Configure Sequence Settings
Before launching, configure settings:
- Click Save & Schedule.

- Configure:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Schedule Date/Time | When sequence starts |
| Time Zone | Sending time zone |
| Email Senders | Which sender(s) to use |
| BCC | CRM BCC email(s) for logging — multiple emails can be comma-separated |
| Evergreen Sequence | Keep running for new leads |
| Review Emails in Outbox | Require approval before sending |
| Stop Sequence on Reply | End sequence when lead replies (lead only or domain-wide) |
| Provider Matching | Match sender provider to lead's email provider |
| Plain-Text Emails | Send without HTML for deliverability |
| Schedule for Verified Leads | Only email valid/risky/invalid leads |
| Tracking | Track opens, clicks, replies |
- Schedule your sequence timing.

- Select your email sender and check the options you need.
Tip: Use one sender, or one sender folder, per sequence. This avoids confusion over daily limits and scheduling, because a sender's daily limit is shared across every sequence that uses it, and per-sequence stats such as opens and replies are most accurate with dedicated senders.
Senders that are already in use by another active sequence are marked with a warning icon in the sender dropdown, and a notice below the selection lists the sequences using them. You can still select and launch with those senders — the warning is only there to help you keep stats and daily limits predictable.

- Select more settings if needed, then click Review to review your sequence settings.
When the sequence uses more than one sender, the review step shows "N Rotating Email Senders". N counts each unique sender once, including the senders inside any sender folders you selected.

Edit Settings or Launch
- Click Edit Settings if more alterations need to be made in sequence settings.
- Click Launch Sequence.

Check the Reports of your sequence.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does A Source block is required. mean?
The sequence has no list or other lead source attached. Add a source block, such as Leads from List(s), select a list, and save the sequence again.
Can I use the same sender in several sequences?
You can, but it isn't recommended. A sender's daily limit is shared, so the sequence scheduled first uses it up and the others send fewer emails, and per-sequence stats are easier to read when each sequence has its own senders. SalesBlink warns you in sequence settings when a selected sender is already in use by another active sequence, but it never stops you from launching. Use one sender, or one sender folder, per sequence. If a sequence isn't sending, see Why Isn't My Sequence Sending?.
