Set Follow-Ups and Action Plans

Updated over 2 weeks ago

After launching outreach, the next step is making sure every conversation leads to a clear next action. In Rethink, this is done by creating tasks or applying Action Plans so follow-ups are scheduled and nothing falls through the cracks.

Tasks help you remember what to do next, while Action Plans help automate a repeatable sequence of tasks for common workflows.

Create Follow-Up Tasks

Tasks are simple reminders tied to a record—such as a property, owner, or deal—so you know exactly when to reconnect with a prospect.

How it works:

  1. Open the property, prospect, or contact record

  2. Click New Task from the Activity panel

  3. Add a subject (e.g., Follow-up call, Send market update)

  4. Set a due date and assignee

  5. Save the task

These tasks appear in your activity lists and reminders so you always know your next move.

Best for:

  • Scheduling follow-up calls

  • Sending additional information

  • Tracking outreach commitments

Apply Action Plans for Repeatable Workflows

Action Plans are a predefined set of tasks that can be applied to a record to guide a process—such as prospect follow-ups, deal preparation, or marketing outreach.

Instead of creating each task manually, an Action Plan automatically creates a series of tasks with assigned owners and due dates.

How it works:

  1. From a list, choose the record(s)

  2. Select Add Action Plan

3. Choose the appropriate template

4. Apply the plan

The plan will automatically create the tasks needed to complete that workflow.

Alternatively, open a record and click the Apply Action Plan button at the top of the record.

Best for:

  • Standard prospecting follow-ups

  • Deal preparation checklists

  • Repeatable brokerage processes

Once follow-ups are scheduled, the final step is to convert opportunities into deals and move them into the pipeline.
