Follow up on a schedule
Runs on a schedule across Google Sheets, walks the list in batches, pausing between them, then rolls the rows up into a few numbers. Built for newsletters, around a "Read Pending Queue (Google Sheets)" step, in 7 documented nodes.
Follow up with subscribers with Google Sheets and HTTP / REST API. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Drip Sequence' pattern for marketing & advertising. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 7 nodes across Google Sheets, HTTP / REST API. It uses n8n's LangChain AI nodes (Agent/Chain + chat model). Retry-on-fail is enabled on external calls. Import the JSON, add your credentials, and adapt the parameters. The result is a hands-off process that just works.
Key benefits
- ✓Runs the whole newsletters step inside Google Sheets, without anyone opening it
- ✓A failed Google Sheets call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 7 nodes in this newsletters build
- ✓The pause before Google Sheets is durable — a newsletters run survives a restart
- ✓Batches the work so Google Sheets rate limits never break a newsletters run
- ✓Pinned sample data ships with it — run all 7 nodes for newsletters before wiring Google Sheets
Use cases
- →Teams doing newsletters in Google Sheets one record at a time
- →Newsletters sequences that run over days and must survive a restart before Google Sheets
- →A backlog too large to push into Google Sheets in one pass, across 7 nodes
- →Newsletters work where "Read Pending Queue (Google Sheets)" is still a manual step before Google Sheets
Integrations

What's inside (7 nodes)
A look at the node types this workflow uses. No purchase required — full parameters and credentials are yours after you buy.
From download to running in 3 steps
- 1Import. In n8n, open Workflows → menu → “Import from File” and pick the downloaded JSON.
- 2Connect. Add your own credentials on the app nodes - n8n highlights exactly which ones need them.
- 3Activate. Run it once to test, then toggle Active. The automation is live.
What you'll learn
Foundation levelA starter-sized build - small enough to hold in your head while you learn the pattern.
- •Sequencing multi-day sends with durable Wait nodes
- •Driving Google Sheets from a scheduled trigger
- •Rolling many rows up into a few reportable numbers
Every node carries its own documentation on the canvas, plus notes explaining why the architecture was built this way, a credential setup guide, troubleshooting, and three practice exercises. Sample data comes pinned to the trigger, so you can hit Execute and watch data flow before connecting a single account.
Common questions
What exactly do I get?
The complete, ready-to-import n8n workflow as a JSON file, delivered instantly after payment. Import it into your own n8n (cloud or self-hosted), add your credentials, and it runs.
How do I import it into n8n?
In n8n, open Workflows, click the three-dot menu, choose “Import from File”, and select the downloaded JSON. Then connect your own app credentials on the highlighted nodes.
Do I need anything else for it to work?
You need your own n8n instance and accounts/credentials for the apps this workflow connects to (Google Sheets, HTTP / REST API). No coding is required.
What if it doesn't work for me?
If the file is faulty, won't import, or isn't as described, contact us within 7 days and we'll fix it or refund you - see our refund policy.
Can I modify or resell it?
You can freely adapt and use it in your own or your clients' projects. Reselling or redistributing the template file itself is not permitted.
