Quick summary

A follow-up sequence GPT is a custom ChatGPT model you configure with specific instructions, conversation starters, and uploaded knowledge to automate structured follow-up messaging. This guide walks you through every step — from opening the GPT builder to publishing your finished GPT with custom access settings.


Steps

  1. On ChatGPT's main interface, open the left-side panel and click 'Explore GPTs'.
  2. Tap 'Create' at the top-right corner to start building a new GPT.
  3. Switch the tab from Create to 'Configure' to access the full setup options.
  4. Click the 'Add' icon to upload a display photo that represents your follow-up sequence GPT.
  5. Enter a unique GPT Name and Description into their respective input fields.
  6. Click the 'Instructions' entry box and write a comprehensive description of the GPT's profile, behavior, function, and capabilities.
  7. Type prompt examples one by one into the 'Conversation Starters' input field to guide users through the first step.
  8. Click 'Upload Files' under the Knowledge section to import external reference documents for additional context.
  9. Open the Capabilities section and tick the checkboxes next to the GPT functions you want to enable, then configure any Actions for third-party integrations.
  10. Go to the Preview Area, type a prompt into the input box, and click 'Submit' to test your GPT's initial output.
  11. If satisfied with the performance, click 'Create' at the top-right corner to proceed.
  12. Select your preferred access configuration, then click 'Save' to finalize the settings.
  13. Your follow-up sequence GPT is now created and published and ready to use.

📌 Why this matters

A dedicated GPT configured with tailored instructions, branded conversation starters, and proprietary knowledge files ensures consistent, on-brand follow-up messaging at scale. This capability reduces manual effort, accelerates response times, and enables teams to deploy an AI-powered follow-up assistant that integrates directly with their existing workflows and third-party tools.
