You want to set up an InfusionSoft FuS (Follow Up Sequence) that goes out on a particular weekday, every week.

I have chosen to deliver my FuS emails every  Saturday. I also want the first step in the FuS to go out immediately my site visitor sign up to my list. I then want the next email step to go out to him on the following Saturday, even if he signs up on a Friday. In that case he would receive his first email on the Friday, and the next email the following day.

In the case where the person happens to sign up on a Saturday, I’d like the next email to go out on the following Saturday – in other words I don’t want him to get the first two emails in the FuS on the same day.

You do it like this for a ten step Follow Up Sequence (FuS)

  1. Step 1 : Immediate
  2. Step 2: Wait 0 days, always run on a Saturday, and check round forward
  3. Step 3: Wait 7 days, always run on a Saturday, and check round forward
  4. Step 4: Wait 14 days, always run on a Saturday, and check round forward
  5. Step 5: Wait 21 days, always run on a Saturday, and check round forward
  6. Step 6: Wait 28 days, always run on a Saturday, and check round forward
  7. Step 7 : Wait 35 days, always run on a Saturday, and check round forward
  8. Step 8: Wait 42 days, always run on a Saturday, and check round forward
  9. Step 9: Wait 49 days, always run on a Saturday, and check round forward
  10. Step 10: Wait 56 days, always run on a Saturday, and check round forward

I’m not sure if what I’m about to write here is correct, but it is what I’ve been able to work out from experimentation and help from Blake at InfusionSoft support.  I called them today and he gave me a different answer to the last time I called support.
