FollowUpThen. Cool or annoying?

by Todd Lohenry on February 8, 2010

Here’s the deal…

“The main way FollowUpThen works [is]: CC a message that needs a second push to an address like 5hours, 2days, 1week, or even 10minutes@followupthen.com, and if your recipient doesn’t reply (with FollowUpThen as one of the addressees) before your time period is up, the original message is re-pushed by FollowUpThen.com, with a little email graphical tweak, seen above, and a notice that FollowUpThen is acting on your wishes.” Source: FollowUpThen Automates Email Follow Ups -- Email -- Lifehacker

    The CC method is best suited for those in a managerial position, looking to keep on top of the tasks they assign to people. Or maybe a wife making sure the husband takes out the trash :P

    We recommend using the BCC or TO method for most use cases, but not forgetting about the CC method when you know someone will need a second nudge.
