Yes, Recruitly's nurturing system supports full team collaboration. Multiple team members can contribute to sequence design, content creation, and strategy development. The system maintains clear ownership for each relationship while providing appropriate visibility across the team. When contacts respond or engage, the system routes these interactions to the assigned relationship owner for personal follow-up.
