Direct Answer:

The moments immediately following a purchase are crucial for setting expectations and keeping your brand top-of-mind. If you wait to manually reach out to clients, you lose the momentum of the sale and may leave them wondering about the next steps. A manual follow-up process is slow and often results in missed opportunities to connect with your buyers.
