At the end of my webform I ask the user if they would like to take another survey in two weeks time. I would like to automatically schedule an email to be send via cron. Ive looked at rules, rules components, rules scheduler, webform rules, modules. Is there a simpler way to do it? I can see it is possible using the aforementioned modules but I'm struggling with the config, 2 days in so far.

Considering the specificity of your request, there are only two solutions: The collection of modules you've mentioned already, or writing a custom module.

In my opinion, the custom module route is "easier", but that's because I'm a developer. The common problem a lot of people run into is that Rules and its suite of add-on modules makes it seem like what you want to do is possible, but then you're missing one critical part of logic and you end up needing to write an additional integration for Rules. At which point, you may have been better off with custom code from the beginning.
