Hi Hunters! 😻 I'm one of the makers of If No Reply - firstly, thanks for the hunt Eric! The reason we created If No Reply was to help grow our own business. It allows you to schedule follow-up emails that are only sent if you don't get a reply from somebody (and it's designed for Gmail). The idea is to save time following up with prospects, and make more conversions too. Anybody who spends a lot of time following up by email would probably find INR useful - but here are the 3 main ways we use it in our own business: 1. Sales outreach 2. Inbound sales to existing customers 3. Sending welcome emails to new customers via our API I know there are a lot of sales automation tools (e.g. Outreach, Reply, PersistIQ) and a lot of Gmail extensions too (e.g. Boomerang, ReBump). We've tried more than I can recall, and we've been paying customers for some too... and in spite of this, we didn't find any of them met our need (simplicity and personalisation). We set out to create a simple sales automation tool that works perfectly with Gmail. Check it out at https://www.ifnoreply.com - we'd love to hear your thoughts! If you have any questions I'll be on here all day with my cofounder Harry, so please do ask 🤓 Ed

@edmoyse Why hide the pricing after sign up?

@edmoyse The "sign up for pricing" turned me off. Would love to try it, but I feel this is dishonest. Sorry.

@levibostian @edmoyse My feelings the same.

@edmoyse Do you surface these emails back to my inbox? In other words, is there anyway to get notified that a "ifnoreply" was triggered?

@pauliebeck @levibostian Hi Paulie and Levi - thanks for the feedback! The reason we originally hid the pricing page was because we applied an earlybird discount for Product Hunt users (that they'd get when they signed up). We had no idea it'd be this unpopular though 😬 - so we've updated it already. You can now see pricing without signing up :)

@preben_frenning @adriangrant it'll be sent from your Gmail just like normal (so will appear in your outbox). Otherwise you can bcc another email address of yours (one way of getting notified). Still, open to suggestions - did you have something else in mind? What would be ideal?

@edmoyse @adriangrant Well the bcc seems like a VERY simple and effective solution, so I like that. I have activated push notifications for my Gmail, so having your own push notification solution wouldn't really help. You could just tell people about the bcc "trick" as a help text or something =)
