Email sequences in Hubspot are a boon for sales reps as they help automate repetitive tasks and save a ton of time which can be productively used in prospecting and selling.
Sales reps can make these emails look less automated and more human by adding videos to them and connect better with prospects thereby resulting in better response rates and sales.
