# How Do I Automate Follow-Up Reminders for Stalled Deals?

You automate reminders for stalled deals by tracking how long a deal has sat in its current stage, then triggering a notification once it crosses a defined threshold. On **Jestor**, this runs through automation tied to **CRM** stage duration.

A deal that has not moved in weeks rarely gets noticed on its own, everyone assumes someone else is handling it, and it quietly falls out of active attention.

## What stalled deals without automation cost

- Deals sitting untouched for weeks without anyone noticing
- Revenue at risk from opportunities that simply went quiet
- No visibility into how long a deal has actually been stuck
- Follow-up depending on someone manually reviewing the whole pipeline

## How automated stall detection works

- The system tracks how long each deal has remained in its current **stage**
- A threshold, such as ten days without movement, triggers a reminder
- The assigned rep receives a notification to follow up or update the deal
- A dashboard can surface all currently stalled deals in one view

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Automatic stall detection removes the need for manual pipeline reviews
- Reminders reach the right rep exactly when a deal needs attention
- Managers gain a clear view of which deals are genuinely at risk
- This scales from a small pipeline to hundreds of concurrent deals

| Manual review                        | Automated stall detection  |
| ------------------------------------ | -------------------------- |
| Depends on someone checking manually | Triggered by time in stage |
