# Sequences Overview

> Create reusable message sequences for your campaigns

## What are Sequences?

Sequences are reusable message templates that define a series of messages with delays between them. Use sequences in campaigns to create consistent messaging workflows.

## Sequence Components

### Sequence Structure

A sequence consists of:

* **Sequence Name**: Descriptive name
* **Steps**: Individual messages and delays
* **Order**: Sequential execution order

### Sequence Steps

**Message Steps:**

* Text content
* Variable placeholders
* Message formatting

**Delay Steps:**

* Wait time between messages
* Duration (minutes, hours, days)
* Configurable delays

## Using Sequences

### In Campaigns

Sequences can be used in campaigns:

* Select sequence when creating campaign
* Sequence steps become campaign flow
* Customize sequence per campaign
* Reuse across multiple campaigns

### Benefits

**Consistency:**

* Standardized messaging
* Reusable templates
* Consistent timing

**Efficiency:**

* Create once, use many times
* Quick campaign setup
* Less repetitive work

**Flexibility:**

* Customize per campaign
* Modify as needed
* Version control

## Creating Sequences

### Basic Steps

1. Click **"Create Sequence"**
2. Enter sequence name
3. Add message steps
4. Add delay steps between messages
5. Configure step content
6. Save sequence

## Sequence Steps

### Message Step

A message to send:

* Text content
* Variable placeholders
* Can include emojis
* Supports formatting

**Variables:**

* `{first_name}`: Lead's first name
* `{last_name}`: Lead's last name
* `{username}`: Telegram username
* Custom field variables

### Delay Step

Wait time between messages:

* Duration in minutes, hours, or days
* Configurable timing
* Ensures proper spacing

**Common Delays:**

* 24 hours between messages
* 3 days for follow-up
* 1 week for final message

## Best Practices

1. **Name Clearly**: Use descriptive sequence names
2. **Test First**: Test sequences before using in campaigns
3. **Use Variables**: Personalize messages with variables
4. **Space Messages**: Add appropriate delays
5. **Keep Updated**: Update sequences as messaging evolves

## Managing Sequences

### View Sequences

See all your sequences:

* Sequence name
* Number of steps
* Created date
* Actions menu

### Edit Sequences

Modify sequence content:

* Update message text
* Adjust delays
* Add or remove steps
* Reorder steps

### Delete Sequences

Remove sequences:

* Permanently delete
* Cannot be undone
* Check for campaign usage first

<Warning>
  Deleting a sequence doesn't affect campaigns already using it, but you won't be able to use it in new campaigns.
</Warning>
