# autoreply ## When are autoreplies needed - When a backlog of messages are happening (but if that is happening [[dig deeper]] because there is a deeper problem) ## Alternatives to autoreply - get a [[sidekick]] to handle messages - Don't work so much that the number of messages are unmanagable - Check them regularly on a [[timing]] ## How are the autoreplies recieved? - I recieved one piece of positive feedback - No other feedback ## How have I felt about them - It has felt liberating. I feel like I am off the hook from having to check constantly. - I have been nervous that they come across badly, but that is [[mind-reading]] ## SMS autoreply Not sure if this is needed. Maybe needed if I'm every off for extended periods. ## [[Social Media]] autoreply - Not currently needed
