Today it is not possible to add a sequence 0 days after something has happened

Sometimes we need to do multiple tasks a day to engage a lead in a sequence.

Agree, that needs to be implemented. Call + mail is a realistic task to be scheduled on one day

YES!!! I was suggested by Support to come place this exact suggestion. More than one action per day in the same sequence is absolutely necessary. It could easily be displayed as follows: “If no action after ‘0’ ‘Days,’ create task at …”

Same-day tasks are now available in Sequences.

I have been battling with a sequence that still will not allow me to select 0 days.

sjudson, can you specify how this is accomplished? 0 is just not an option for me.

I have the Sales Professional program, if that makes a difference.

@mmsown - when adding a task to a sequence in the builder, there should be a checkbox in the top right corner of the task that specifies “No step delay”. This would set a task to execute on the same day as an email.

Currently it’s not possible to send an email on the same day as another email when using Sequences.

I was trying to add an email on the same day, but after, a task. That does not work at all. It would be helpful to delay by hours to make it possible to follow up in this way.

</div>

Same issue as @mmsown - when a form is submitted (new applicant) we want to create a task for reviewing applicant after completing that task an email should be sent with a meeting link for a interview call.

</div>

I am also looking for the same functionality as @mmsown and @Dogtag89. As far as I can tell, the simple solution would be for “Send email if no action within” allowed for minutes, hours & months. This would address several of the issues users on this thread have faced. In my case, “hours” is the measurement that makes or breaks the utility of this tool. I will be opening this specific request as an “idea”.
