You forget who clicked what

Follow-up gets lost in a spreadsheet

You waste time guessing where people are in the journey

Example: A Creator Launching Smarter with GetResponse
Rania is a fictional business coach building her email list from Instagram and hosting monthly webinars. She struggled to manually tag leads, send replays, and segment based on engagement.
After switching to GetResponse:
-
Her lead magnet form automatically adds subscribers to the CRM and tags them by source
-
Her welcome sequence adapts based on link clicks and interest
-
If someone signs up for a webinar but doesn’t attend, a follow-up email delivers the replay
-
If someone watches the replay and clicks “Book a Call,” she’s notified in real time
-
Lead scores help her prioritize who to follow up with — based on behavior, not guesswork
