Start sequence from a reply in gmail

thanks for your answers!

Im in sales, not marketing however. We have already made the connection with client, have qualified them, and the client has become an opportunity. I dont see why I should need to go back to marketing workflow. It simply doesnt work for me, and I dont want them receiving marketing look/ type emails. Sequences and templates can be personalised.

and also, I need a clear concise sales process.

Sales needs automation also! (more so in my opinion)
