A lead answered within 5 minutes is 21× more likely to qualify than one answered after 30 (Lead Response Management study). The average business takes 42 hours, and 23% never reply at all (Harvard Business Review, 2011). New leads get a first reply within minutes, under your name, even at 2am on a Sunday. A specialist takes it from there.
“They filled out our form on a Friday afternoon. We followed up Monday morning. By then they had already signed with someone else. That was the most expensive weekend I ever had.” A founder wrote that on LinkedIn. Leads that got a call within five minutes converted at 8 times the rate of leads called later (InsideSales, 2021).

We draft your follow-ups for you to approve, then keep sending them until there’s an answer.
Booking and reminders that cut no-shows.
Reply within five minutes if you can. In the Lead Response Management study, leads reached within five minutes were 21 times more likely to qualify than leads reached after half an hour. An HBR study found the average business takes 42 hours to answer. Send a first reply right away, then have a person follow up the same day. With Evensteer, new leads get a first reply within minutes, under your name, and a specialist takes it from there.
Yes, automate the first reply, but keep a person in charge of what happens next. A quick, personal reply tells the lead you got their message and offers a next step, like a booking link. After that, a real person should read the thread and handle the details. Review the reply templates often, so they still match your offer. At Evensteer, the system drafts the reply, a specialist watches every thread, and you approve the templates first.
Keep following up on a steady schedule until you get a clear yes or no. A lead that doesn’t buy right away often isn’t saying no. They’re busy, or the timing is wrong. Space your follow-ups out, give each one a reason to reply, and log every answer so nobody chases a closed deal. Evensteer drafts your follow-ups for you to approve, then keeps sending them until there’s an answer.
Send every lead into one pipeline, whether it came from a form, an email, a call or an event. Give each one a clear status, and tag where it came from, so you can see which sources turn into business. Look at the leads still waiting every week, because that’s where deals go quiet. Evensteer keeps one pipeline view that shows every lead as booked, declined or waiting.
