By default, Leadferno sends auto replies to new lead submissions via the Leadbox or Facebook. Auto replies may help to set expectations for prospects so that they know when they can expect a response from you. The auto reply schedule will give prospects a sense to expect a message soon or in a day or so. The message for open hours and closed hours are different.
