Migration Guide
Transition from manual sequence enrollment to fully automated workflows with AutoSeq.
Pre-Migration Preparation
1. Audit Current Process
Document your current manual enrollment process:
- Which sequences are you manually enrolling to?
- What triggers enrollment? (form submission, deal stage, etc.)
- Who does the manual enrollment?
- How many enrollments per week?
2. Identify Automation Opportunities
Best candidates for automation:
- High-volume (>10 per week)
- Consistent trigger (same form, same deal stage)
- Time-sensitive (need fast follow-up)
Migration Steps
Step 1: Connect AutoSeq
- Sign up for AutoSeq
- Connect HubSpot
- Sync data (sequences and users)
Step 2: Start with One Workflow
Don't migrate everything at once. Pick your highest-volume use case:
- Create workflow in HubSpot
- Add AutoSeq action
- Configure with existing sequence
- Test with yourself
- Activate for real traffic
Step 3: Run in Parallel
For first 2 weeks:
- Let AutoSeq handle new enrollments
- Monitor execution analytics daily
- Keep manual backup process just in case
- Compare volume: manual vs automated
Step 4: Migrate Additional Workflows
Once confident with first workflow:
- Add next highest-volume use case
- Repeat testing process
- Gradually migrate all manual processes
Step 5: Deprecate Manual Process
After 30 days of successful automation:
- Document all workflows in AutoSeq
- Train team on monitoring analytics
- Disable manual enrollment processes
Recommended Migration Timeline
- Week 1: Setup and first workflow
- Week 2-3: Monitor and optimize
- Week 4-6: Add remaining workflows
- Week 7-8: Full automation, deprecate manual
Common Migration Challenges
Team Resistance to Automation
Solution: Show time saved. Track hours spent on manual enrollment before/after.
Handling Edge Cases
Solution: Keep manual process for VIP/complex cases. Automate the 80% high-volume use cases.
Measuring Migration Success
Track these metrics:
- Time saved per week (hours no longer spent manually enrolling)
- Enrollment speed improvement (minutes to enroll vs instant)
- Volume increase (can now handle more leads)
- Error reduction (fewer missed enrollments)
