The agent reads your lead list and finds leads with no exchange for three weeks or more. It leaves out leads marked as closed or won. It drafts one short check-in note per remaining lead, with one question about their plans, and you review every note before you use it.

Before you start

Steps:
1. Read each row and highlight the leads with no exchange for 21 days or more.
