Short answer
A sales sequence, or cadence, is a scheduled series of outreach touches, such as emails, calls and social messages, that a rep sends to a prospect over time. Sequences standardize prospecting so follow-up is consistent and persistent. Sales engagement platforms automate the timing and track replies, meetings booked and other outcomes.
