Workflow recipes are guided automation patterns for common business scenarios. Use these as starting points and customise them for your specific needs. Workflow Recipes are pre-designed templates that offer a starting point for creating workflows within the CRM. These templates are crafted to cover a wide range of business needs, from appointment booking to long-term customer nurture. The beauty of Workflow Recipes lies in their flexibility; while they provide a solid foundation, they can be fully customized to meet your specific requirements. ### Select a Recipe To start, navigate to ****Automation ****>**** Workflows ****>**** +Create workflow**** > ****Select a Recipe.**** Screenshot

Browse the list of available Recipes and select one that matches your business needs. Clicking on a Recipe will load the template into the Workflow builder. Screenshot

### Customize Modify the template by adding or removing steps, adjusting conditions, and tailoring messages to fit your brand voice and objectives. Screenshot

### Save and Publish After customizing, click "Save." To activate it, switch the Workflow from Draft to Published mode. Screenshot

### Some Workflow Recipes and Their Uses Here are some commonly used Workflow Recipes and scenarios where they can be applied: * ****Appointment Booking and Confirmation:**** Ideal for businesses that rely on appointments, this Recipe helps in sending booking links and confirmation messages automatically. * ****Auto Missed Call Text-Back:**** Automatically responds to missed calls, ensuring leads are promptly engaged. * \*\*\*\*Birthday Template: \*\*\*\*Sends personalized promotions or greetings on customers' birthdays to enhance engagement. * \*\*\*\*Email Drip Sequence: \*\*\*\*Perfect for nurturing leads over time with a series of automated emails. * ****Fast Five:**** A comprehensive lead nurture workflow designed to engage new leads within the critical first five minutes. * \*\*\*\*Send Review Request: \*\*\*\*Automatically requests reviews from customers post-purchase or service, aiding in reputation management. Workflow Recipes are like having a helping hand to simplify your automation processes. They give you a head start with pre-built templates while letting you tweak and adjust everything to fit your unique needs. Whether you're following up with leads, sending appointment confirmations, or engaging customers on their special days, these templates make it easier to get things done. ### FAQs Navigate to the Workflow builder, select the workflow, and make your desired changes. Remember to save and republish. Yes, you can combine elements from different Recipes to create a workflow that meets your unique needs. Recipes are fully customizable. You can add or remove steps, change conditions, and modify actions to better suit your workflow. Calendar workflows are generally designed to automatically send communications to clients following a change in their appointment status, ensuring timely and consistent updates. The first step to creating a calendar workflow is ensuring you have a calendar to associate with your workflow.\*\* From your account dashboard, click "Calendars", then "Calendar Settings," and either create the calendar you need or verify the name given to the desired calendar.

Once that is done, return to the main menu and choose "Automation". ### Setting Up the Workflow When you get to the Automations page, click the "Create Workflow" button located in the upper right corner. From there, you can either select a recipe or choose the start-from-scratch option.

Five recipes can be adjusted to suit your appointment needs; however, we will walk you through the process of creating the workflow from scratch in this guide. The first step in creating any workflow is to rename it. Click on the existing name, delete it, and then enter a clear and concise name that accurately reflects the workflow's purpose, making it easy to identify from the list. Once you've entered the desired name, click anywhere within the builder to exit the name editor.

Next, choose the applicable appointment trigger. Some available options include: Appointment Status- which activates the workflow when there are changes in the status of the appointment, and Customer Booked Appointment- which activates the workflow when the appointment was booked using the calendar link.

In this case, I am going to choose the "Appointment Status" trigger with the filters "In Calendar" and "Appointment Status Is" to only activate the workflow for confirmed bookings on the selected calendar. You can tailor this according to your preferences. 📌\*\*Note\*\*\*\*: The Event Type filter is added by default to configure whether the automation should be activated for single or recurring bookings or both.

Browse the other available filters to refine the criteria further, then save the trigger! ### Adding the Functionality Once you have the workflow created, named, and the Trigger set up, it is time to add functionality to it. Optionally, you can assign the contacts who enter the workflow to a user. This is particularly beneficial when a single user is responsible for managing the calendar or scheduling appointments. By making this assignment, the "from" fields in email forms will be automatically populated, eliminating the need for manual entry. If multiple users are selected, choose how you wish to split the traffic.

Next, Add a system tag if needed to group contacts who book in a particular calendar together.

You can then send an Internal Notification to the Assigned User to inform them of the confirmed appointment on their calendar.

Now, we are going to send a text message to the contact letting them know the appointment is confirmed. To do this, simply choose the "Send SMS" action, type out your message, or choose a snippet, and then save it.

Add a one-minute wait step immediately after the SMS step. This allows the system to pause and makes the interaction seem more natural.

Now you can add the "Send Email" action. Fill out the subject and the body of the email appropriately. Like the "Send SMS" action, you can choose an available template or craft the message from scratch. To send appointment reminders to the contact to prevent no-shows, you can add additional wait steps and email reminders. Here is how you would configure the wait step: 1. Add the "Wait" action. 2. Update the "Wait For" field to the "Event/Appointment Time" option. 3. Choose whether the wait step should wait until before, after, or at the appointment time, and set the period for which it should wait. 4. Select the desired action for scenarios where the timing of the wait step falls in the past. For instance, if a contact schedules an appointment for tomorrow but the wait step is set to trigger two days before the appointment (which would have been yesterday), you can specify how the workflow should proceed. The recommended approach is to skip all outbound communications in such cases to prevent sending irrelevant messages to contacts. This ensures that contacts are not overwhelmed with notifications that do not apply to their current situation.

Add the relevant communications, and repeat this process as necessary to send reminders before, at, or after the appointment time. Remember to publish and save your workflow to activate it!

You now have a simple appointment workflow which you can build to any level of complexity you require. Happy automating! Renaming a calendar workflow

Leveraging CRM automation can transform your engagement with leads and streamline your marketing efforts. Trigger links and custom values are essential tools in this process. Together, they help create more dynamic, personalized, and efficient workflows. This guide explores how these elements fit into your automation strategy and why mastering them can elevate your CRM game. ### Setting Up Custom Values Custom values act as placeholders, automatically filling in specific details like URLs or customer names during automation. For example, instead of manually entering unique links for every campaign, you can use a placeholder for a product page or order form. To set up custom values, go to your CRM\*\*\*\* Settings\*\*\*\* and select ****"Custom Values."**** Define the data you want to automate, such as appointment pages, product links, or survey URLs. Save these values, making them available for use in automation workflows. Screenshot

### Creating Trigger Links Trigger links, on the other hand, enable your CRM to take immediate action when clicked. For instance, clicking a link in an email could trigger a follow-up message or add the user to a specific campaign. Navigate to the "Marketing" section in your CRM and click "Trigger Links". From there, select ****Links**** and click on ****Add link**** to create a new trigger link. Assign a name that reflects its purpose, such as "Order Form Follow-Up." Insert the URL using a custom value, ensuring it dynamically updates for each lead or campaign. Screenshot

### Implementing Automation Use the trigger link in your marketing communications, such as emails or text messages. When a recipient clicks the link, the CRM records the action and triggers any associated automation. Set up an automation workflow that starts with the trigger of a link being clicked. Add conditions to check if the desired action was completed on discount days or if the contact source was Facebook, for example. If the criteria were not met, the workflow can send follow-up communications or notify a team member to take further action. Screenshot

### Importance of Trigger Links and Custom Values Trigger links are not just clickable URLs—they are powerful automation tools that initiate workflows, track engagement, and take specific actions based on user behavior. When paired with custom values, they create personalized experiences for leads and customers, making your communications more relevant and impactful. By embedding these features into your CRM strategy, you can: * Reduce manual effort by automating repetitive tasks. * Improve lead engagement through tailored follow-ups. * Track behavior to better understand and address customer needs. ### Real-World Applications 1. ****Lead Nurturing****: Use trigger links to identify and follow up with leads who engage with your marketing content but don't convert. 2. ****Event Tracking****: Automate reminders for attendees who click a registration link but haven't completed their RSVP. 3. ****Service Qualification****: Follow up with users who click a link for a service qualification survey but don't submit their answers. ### Troubleshooting Tips and FAQs * \*\*\*\*Custom Values Not Working?: \*\*\*\*Double-check your custom value setup and ensure placeholders are correctly referenced in automation. * \*\*\*\*Trigger Links Not Activating?: \*\*\*\*Verify that links are properly embedded and workflows are activated. Test the process end-to-end for any gaps. Automation transforms your CRM workflows, simplifying tasks and ensuring your team stays proactive. By configuring triggers and actions, you can automate processes like sending notifications, updating records, and streamlining communication—saving time and reducing manual errors. This guide will walk you through how to set up these automation tools in your CRM, enabling you to stay on top of every lead with timely email and SMS notifications, ensuring no opportunity is ever missed. ### Accessing Triggers From the menu on the left-hand side, locate and click on ****Automation**** > ****Workflows ****>**** +Create Workflow ****>**** +Start from Scratch.**** Screenshot

### Creating a New Rule Within the selected workflow, click the ****"+ Add New Trigger"**** button located at the top of the page. This is the first step in setting up the rule that will determine when your workflow gets activated. Screenshot

### Setting Up the Trigger Under the "Contact" section, select ****"Contact Created"****. This ensures the rule is triggered whenever a new lead is added to the system. Screenshot

If you want to narrow the trigger to specific contacts, use the ****"Define Filters"**** option. For instance, you can select ****"Has Tag"**** and specify a tag, such as ****"New Lead"****, to monitor only leads associated with that tag. Screenshot

Once your trigger conditions are set, click ****Save Trigger**** to finalize this step. Screenshot

### Defining the Action Actions are what the workflow does after the trigger is activated. For instance, you can notify your team about new leads. To set up an action click the ****"+"**** sign below the trigger, and choose an action such as sending an email, SMS, or system notification. We will be using\*\*\*\* "Send Internal Notification".\*\*\*\* Screenshot

### Email Notification To send email notifications effectively, follow these steps to configure the key fields: * \*\*\*\*From Name: \*\*\*\*Specify the name or email address that will appear as the sender. This could be your business email or a system-generated address, ensuring the recipient knows who the message is from. * ****From Email:**** Enter the email address the notification will be sent from. Make sure it's recognizable to avoid confusion. * ****To:**** Add the recipient's email address. If you're notifying multiple recipients, separate each email address with a comma to include them all. * ****Subject and Message:**** Craft a clear and concise subject line that highlights the purpose of the email. Write an actionable and informative message that delivers the necessary details. Use custom values (like the contact's name, email, or phone number) to personalize the email. For instance, include lead information to ensure the notification is relevant and meaningful to the recipient. Screenshot

### Notification The ****In-App Notification**** section allows you to send a notification directly within the CRM platform to alert users about specific actions or updates. In the dropdown Set the type of notification to ****"Notification"**** for an in-app alert. Screenshot

### SMS Notification SMS notifications are another way to keep your team updated in real time. Here's how to set them up: * ****To****: Enter the recipient's phone number. Similar to email, you can notify multiple people by separating numbers with commas. * ****Message****: Craft a brief and clear SMS message. Use ****custom values**** for personalization. For instance, you could include the lead's first name or the source of the inquiry. Screenshot

### Activating the Workflow Once all triggers and actions are in place, move the workflow status from ****"Draft"**** to ****"Publish"**** by toggling the button at the top of the page. Publishing the workflow ensures that your automation is live and notifications will be sent as per your setup. Screenshot

### Save After activating the workflow, don't forget to click ****Save**** at the top-right corner of the page to ensure all your changes are stored. Screenshot

By carefully setting up triggers and actions, you can automate essential tasks and improve your team's responsiveness to new leads. Whether it's sending an email, SMS, or system notification, automation ensures timely communication and enhances efficiency. ### Troubleshooting Tips and FAQs * ****Not Receiving Notifications:**** Verify that the workflow is published, the trigger is set correctly, and recipient information (email addresses or phone numbers) is accurate. * ****Custom Values Not Displaying Properly:**** Check the syntax of your custom values. An incorrect format can result in values not being displayed as intended. Creating opportunities from form submissions is key to keeping your sales pipeline active and organized. By setting up automation, you can ensure that all incoming leads from your forms are automatically captured in your pipeline, making it easier to manage and nurture leads as they progress through each sales stage. Before linking form submissions to create opportunities, make sure your sales pipeline is ready by verifying that you have an existing pipeline within the "Opportunities" section within your platform. If not, create one and define its stages. Screenshot

Identify the stage where you want form submissions to appear. ## Integrating Form Submissions with the Pipeline ### Access the Form Go to the "Sites" section and select "Builder" from the Forms dropdown. Identify the form you want to use for capturing leads or create a new form if needed. Screenshot

### Create a New Workflow Navigate to the "Automation" section within your account and opt to create a new workflow or edit an existing workflow. ### Set Up the Trigger The trigger is the event that initiates the workflow, ensuring that the automation process begins when a specific action occurs. To configure your workflow to start when a form is submitted, select the "Form Submitted" trigger. Screenshot

To further refine the workflow, you can apply a filter to specify which form submissions will trigger the workflow. Select the desired form from the list provided. If you prefer the workflow to activate for all form submissions, simply save the action without adding any filters. ### Define the Action The action is what happens when the workflow is triggered. Click the add action button, then locate and select the "Create or Update Opportunity" action. Screenshot

Select your sales pipeline and the specific stage. Screenshot

To configure the opportunity details, utilize custom fields as needed, including the contact's full name (select "Contact Full Name" from the Custom Fields for personalized tiles), the source (e.g., "Website Contact Form"), and the status (set to "Open" for new leads). Ensure that the fields selected in this section are added to the selected form. Screenshot

### Publish the Workflow Save your action settings and publish the workflow once you have finalized your workflow configuration. Screenshot

### Testing the Integration After setting up the workflow, test the integration by submitting the form with test data. Then, check the "Opportunities" section to ensure the submission appears in the designated pipeline stage. Screenshot

Your opportunity cards will now display form submission details, allowing for quick reference and follow-up. ### Troubleshooting Tips ****Workflow Not Triggering**** * Ensure the form selected in the workflow matches the form being submitted. Double-check the trigger settings. ****Incorrect Pipeline Stage**** * Verify the selected pipeline and stage within the workflow action settings. ### FAQs Yes, you can create separate workflows for each form or use filters within a single workflow to manage multiple forms. The CRM allows you to control whether duplicate opportunities are created. Adjust this setting based on your preference in the workflow action settings. Efficiently managing contact assignments is crucial for ensuring seamless communication and follow-ups. A user-assigned workflow automates this process, enabling you to assign contacts to specific users and trigger personalized actions based on the assignment. In this guide, we'll walk you through the steps to create and customize a user-assigned workflow. ### Ensure a User Assignment Workflow Exists You must have an existing workflow that assigns users to contacts. Typically, this would trigger when a contact is created, with an action to assign the contact to a user. The workflow would contain the "Assign to User" action, which you can add by clicking the + sign. Screenshot

Pick the user(s) you'd like to assign new contacts to. If adding multiple users, the contact distribution will work in a round-robin system for equal assignment unless you explicitly select otherwise. Screenshot

Toggle the "Only apply to unassigned Contacts" option, then save your action. Screenshot

Publish and save your workflow before proceeding with the next steps. ### Create a New Workflow Navigate to the Workflow tab in the Automation section, click the + Create workflow, then select Start from Scratch. Screenshot

### Select the Workflow Trigger For the trigger, choose 'contact changed'. Screenshot

Apply the filter 'assigned user has changed'. This ensures that the workflow triggers any time a contact is assigned to a user. Screenshot

### Add an If/Else Condition Click the '+' sign to add a new action and select 'If/Else' from the internal tools section. Screenshot

Set the condition to check if the "Assigned user Includes \[specific user]." This will create a branch for actions specific to that user. Screenshot

You can add as many branches as you need for each user. Screenshot

### Add Actions for Each User Under each user's branch, add the actions you want to occur for contacts assigned to that user, customizing the actions as necessary. Once you're done, save the Action. Screenshot

Once all conditions and actions are set, remember to publish your workflow to make it active. ### Re-Entry Settings Generally, you won't need to allow re-entry for this type of workflow since contacts are typically assigned to a user once. This keeps the process streamlined. Screenshot

### Customization Tailor the actions within each user's branch to fit their role or the type of contacts they handle. This could include sending personalized emails, setting tasks, or initiating follow-up sequences. ### FAQs If reassignments are common in your workflow, consider enabling re-entry based on your CRM's capabilities to accommodate updates. Yes, you can create branches for teams by grouping users in your conditions, allowing for broader actions based on team assignments. Managing your community and ensuring a seamless user experience often hinges on automation. Payment Received Workflows allow you to streamline the onboarding process for new members, manage subscription issues, and engage your community effectively.

This feature operates effectively in the background and does not affect your response rates or engagement metrics. It's designed to support better organization without compromising performance. ### Troubleshooting Tips * ****Workflow Not Marking Messages as Read****: Ensure the "Mark as read" option is enabled in the workflow settings. If it's enabled and messages are still showing as unread, check if there are any unread customer replies in the conversation. ### FAQs No, this feature only affects how messages are displayed in your inbox. It does not impact your response rates or metrics. Currently, the auto-mark as read feature applies to all messages sent from the specified workflow or campaign. Customer satisfaction doesn't end at the checkout. Ensuring a seamless post-purchase experience is essential for building loyalty and driving repeat business.

The first action could be an internal notification to alert you of the purchase. Notify your team of each purchase with an email or SMS notification. Use pre-made templates for speed and consistency. Screenshot

Add a tag (e.g., "Purchased: Premium Product") to the contact, allowing for segmentation and personalized follow-ups. Screenshot

Use the ****Create or Update Opportunity**** action to add the customer to your sales pipeline for further engagement or upselling opportunities. Screenshot

If issues persist, try refreshing the page and attempting the import again. Currently, the import process is designed for one campaign at a time. However, you can manually add elements from other campaigns by using the Workflow builder's customization options. Test your workflow by triggering it with a test contact or through the conditions you've set. Monitor the results and make adjustments as necessary. Before diving into appointment management, it's essential to understand what opportunities and pipelines are within the CRM. Opportunities represent potential revenue or conversions from leads, while pipelines help organize these opportunities into different stages of your sales or service process. *** ## Creating an Appointment Pipeline Navigate to the Pipelines tab inside the Opportunities section and create a new pipeline. This is where you'll manage different stages of interaction with your leads. Screenshot

In the pop-up, name the new pipeline something relevant, like "Appointment Pipeline," and review you have enough stages. If not, click "Add Stage." Screenshot

### Define Stages Include stages such as "Confirmed", "Rescheduled", "Canceled", and "No Show" to track each appointment's status. Additionally, you can make each pipeline stage visible on either or both the Funnel and Pie charts by enabling each toggle. Remember to click Create to save the newly created pipeline. Screenshot

*** ## Managing Confirmed Appointments with Automation Go to the Workflows tab inside the Automation section, and click + Create Workflow, then select + Start from Scratch. Screenshot

You can name the workflow "Appointment Confirmed" for easy identification. Screenshot

### Choose a Trigger Then, for the Workflow Trigger, select "Customer Booked Appointment" in the relevant calendar group. Screenshot

### Action Select the Create Opportunity action. Screenshot

Choose the "Appointment pipeline" option. Screenshot

Click "Add field" and set the Pipeline Stage as Confirmed. Screenshot

*** ## Handling Cancellations and No-Shows Since the CRM cannot automatically detect no-shows, a combination of automation and manual intervention is required. ### For Cancellations Create another Workflow, which we'll name "Appointment Canceled". Add the Appointment Status Trigger to activate when an appointment status is changed to canceled. Screenshot

### Trigger In the filter, add the filter "Appointment status is" and set it to "Cancelled." Remember to Save the Trigger. Screenshot

### Action Search and select the "Update Opportunity" action. Screenshot

Toggle on "Allow opportunity to move to any previous stage in pipeline" to signal the system when an opportunity is required to move to a stage they have previously been on. Screenshot

For this workflow, add the Pipeline field and set it as "Appointment Pipeline." Screenshot

Add the "Pipeline" Stage field and set it as "Canceled," then save the action. Screenshot

### For No-Shows In a new workflow, use the Appointment Status Trigger, set the filter to "Appointment status is No-show," then save the Trigger. Screenshot

### Action Search and select the "Update Opportunity" action. Screenshot

Toggle on "Allow opportunity to move to any previous stage in pipeline" to signal the system when an opportunity is required to move to a stage they have previously been on. Screenshot

For this workflow, add the Pipeline field and set it as "Appointment Pipeline." Screenshot

Add the "Pipeline" Stage field and set it as "No Show," then save the action. Screenshot

📌NOTE: In the opportunities section, you can also manually move each customer through the pipeline as you see fit. Screenshot

### Add Message Reminders Make sure to add more steps to the Workflow like SMS or Email Reminders. This gives you an edge in following up with busy clients, and these reminders might prompt them to reschedule. Screenshot

### Use Case Let's walk through a scenario where a lead books an appointment, and we manage its outcome: 1. ****Lead Books an Appointment:**** This triggers the "Appointment Confirmed" workflow, automatically placing the lead in the "Confirmed" stage. 2. ****Cancellation or No-Show:**** If the lead cancels (via a link in an email) or doesn't show up, you'll update the opportunity to the respective stage. For no-shows, this involves manually changing the appointment status. Managing appointments efficiently starts with a clear pipeline and smart automation. Use workflows to handle confirmations and cancellations, and manually update no-shows to keep everything organized. This process helps you stay on track and build stronger client relationships. ### FAQs Check your automation trigger and ensure it's correctly set to the action of booking an appointment.

Ensure the message makes the recipient feel valued and that your campaign settings comply with SMS regulations. Incorporate the trigger link into your SMS message within the workflow, ensuring recipients can easily access the coupon. Screenshot

Incorporate follow-up actions, such as applying tags and implementing wait steps, to optimize engagement. Remember to publish and save your workflow to preserve your settings, and thoroughly test it to ensure it performs as intended. Consider setting up additional workflows to interact with customers who click on the coupon link, using wait steps to avoid overwhelming them with immediate follow-up messages. By strategically using SMS marketing, you can drive customer engagement and maximize the effectiveness of your campaigns. ### FAQs Ensure your SMS settings are correct and that you've complied with all regulatory requirements. Check the customer's phone number for accuracy. Personalize messages, offer genuine value, and use clear calls to action.

Annual communication workflows ensure your contacts stay engaged with timely and relevant messages year after year. Automating this process saves time and maintains consistency in your outreach efforts. In this guide, we'll walk you through setting up a recurring annual workflow in your CRM to streamline communications and improve engagement with your audience. ### Trigger Setup Start by selecting the trigger that works best for you. We will use the ****"Contact Tag"**** trigger as an example. For the filter, choose ****"Tag Added."**** In this example, we'll use the tag ****"campaign 19."**** This means the workflow will activate when a contact is tagged as a member of campaign 19. Screenshot

### Wait Add a ****"Wait"**** step to pause the workflow until whenever you please. Screenshot

Specify the time to resume, ensuring the message is sent at an appropriate time of day. Screenshot

### Check Membership Status After the waiting period, add a condition to check if the contact still has the \*\*\*\*"Campaign 19" \*\*\*\*tag. Screenshot

****📌NOTE:**** If the tag is present, proceed down the "Yes" path to send the communication. ### Sending the Communication On the "Yes" path, add steps to send a text message and an email to the contact. Customize the content of both the text and email to suit your message. Screenshot

### Wait 365 Days After sending the messages, add another \*\*\*\*"Wait" \*\*\*\*step for 365 days. Screenshot

****📌NOTE:**** This ensures the workflow pauses for a year before checking the membership status again. ### Loop the Workflow Finally, add a ****"Go To"**** step at the end of the workflow. Configure this step to loop back to the initial \*\*\*\*"Wait" \*\*\*\*step. This creates a repeating cycle, allowing the workflow to run annually. Screenshot

### Testing the Workflow Before activating your workflow, test it to confirm it works as expected: Create a Test Contact, and add the appropriate tag to simulate triggering the workflow. Then check the workflow steps, and use the already-built workflow to simulate time progression. Ensure the workflow pauses, sends messages, and loops as intended. When it comes to staying connected with your audience, an annual communication workflow ensures you're always one step ahead. By automating the process, you're free to focus on building stronger relationships while your CRM takes care of the repetitive tasks. With the right setup, this workflow can become invaluable in your communication strategy, keeping your contacts engaged and your campaigns running smoothly. ### Troubleshooting Tips * ****Workflow Not Triggering:**** Ensure the contact is correctly tagged and that there are no typos in the tag name. * ****Messages Not Sending:**** Check the content and settings of your email and text message steps. Ensure they are correctly configured to send. * ****Workflow Not Repeating:**** Verify the\*\*\*\* "Go To" \*\*\*\*step is correctly set to loop back to the \*\*\*\*"Wait" \*\*\*\*step. ### FAQs Yes, you can fully customize the text and email content sent to your members. The workflow includes a condition to check the membership status. If the contact is no longer tagged as a member, the workflow will not send the messages. Yes, you can adjust the wait times and conditions to suit any frequency you desire, such as monthly or quarterly communications. Automating phone connections is a game-changer for businesses looking to engage with leads promptly. With a well-structured workflow, you can ensure seamless communication that saves time and boosts efficiency.

Screenshot

### Triggering the Workflow Add the \*\*\*\*Form Submitted \*\*\*\*trigger to the workflow which activates when the form is filled by the client. Screenshot

*** ## Setting Up the Call Action Next, you'll set up the ****Call Action****, a key part of this automation. Here's how to configure it effectively: ### Call Step Configuration Add the \*\*\*\*Call Action \*\*\*\*step and specify the parameters for the phone call. Screenshot

### Whisper Message Input a whisper message for your team members. This message helps provide context before the call connects. Screenshot

### Acceptance Prompt Configure the system to require team members to press a specific number to accept the call. This ensures intentional acceptance. Screenshot

### Connecting Both Parties Once the call is accepted, the CRM automatically dials the lead's number, connecting your team with the potential customer. *** ## Practical Example To illustrate, let's consider a scenario: 1. The workflow initiates a call to your team member. 2. The team member hears a whisper message detailing the lead's source. 3. They press the designated number to accept the call. 4. The CRM calls the lead and connects them directly with your team, creating an efficient and timely interaction. Automating call connections simplifies lead engagement and ensures no opportunity slips through the cracks. By setting up workflows with clear steps and actionable features like whisper messages and acceptance prompts, your team can focus on what matters most—building meaningful connections with potential customers. *** ## Troubleshooting Tips * ****Spam Risk Notification****: If calls are being flagged as potential spam, consider using a more recognizable phone number or informing leads ahead of time about the call they should expect. * ****Call Acceptance Issues****: Ensure the acceptance prompt is clear and that your team member knows which number to press to accept the call. *** ## FAQs Yes, the whisper message is fully customizable to fit your or your team member's preferences. You can configure the workflow to attempt the call again after a specified time or to leave a voicemail. In CRM workflows, positive intent triggers are a game-changer. They let you automate follow-ups when contacts respond positively to your outreach, ensuring you stay on top of every opportunity. Whether you're running a reactivation campaign or promoting a limited-time offer, these triggers help convert potential leads into meaningful engagements without manual intervention. ### Set Up the workflow Navigate to the ****"Workflows"**** section within the CRM and create a workflow from scratch. Select the ****"Customer Replied"**** trigger option. Screenshot

Choose ****SMS**** as the reply channel. Set the intent type to ****"Yes"****, which captures positive responses like ****"Positive/Yes,"**** or ****"Negative/No."**** Add campaign-specific filters, ensuring only relevant replies activate the trigger. Screenshot

\*\*\*\*📌NOTE: \*\*\*\*You can Include follow-up actions, such as sending a link for booking a call or accessing a special offer. ### Testing Positive Intent Trigger After setting up your trigger, it's crucial to test it to ensure it works as expected: * \*\*\*\*Add Yourself to the Campaign: \*\*\*\*Insert your profile into the outreach workflow to receive the initial text. * ****Reply Positively:**** Respond with a positive word, like "Sure," and check if the system detects it. * ****Validate Follow-Up Actions:**** Confirm you are added to the appropriate workflow and receive the intended follow-up message. ### Use Case Picture this, you're running a database reactivation campaign. A text message goes out to your contacts saying, ****"Hey, we have an exciting offer! Are you interested?"**** When someone responds positively—maybe with a "Yes" or "Absolutely"—the CRM instantly sends a follow-up message with a call-to-action. Positive intent triggers empower businesses to respond promptly to potential leads who express interest, boosting engagement and conversions. With the right setup and testing, these triggers can streamline your follow-up process, ensuring your outreach efforts translate into meaningful interactions. ### Troubleshooting & FAQs * ****Trigger Not Firing:**** Ensure that the reply channel and workflow specifics are correctly set up. Double-check the intent type to ensure it matches the expected positive responses. * ****No Follow-Up Message Received:**** Verify that the workflow has been saved and published. Check if there are any conditions or filters that might be preventing the trigger from executing. * ****Can I set up triggers for negative replies:**** Yes, you can create separate triggers to handle negative replies, though this guide focuses on positive intent. A double opt-in system is a two-step process where a lead first opts into your communications and then confirms their opt-in through a subsequent action, typically by clicking a link in a confirmation email or text message. This system serves two main purposes: * Compliance with GDPR: It ensures that you are adhering to data protection regulations by obtaining explicit consent from your leads. * Verification of Information: It helps in verifying the accuracy of the contact information provided by the lead, such as their email address. *** ## Creating a Double Opt-In 📌 Prerequisites: Before proceeding, ensure you have the following in place: a form designed to collect the necessary information for the initial opt-in, a funnel or website to which the form can be integrated, and a trigger link for users to confirm their opt-in. ### Triggering the Initial Opt-In Begin by adding your form to your funnel or website page, then create a workflow that activates when the form is submitted to trigger the initial opt-in process.

Use workflow actions to request confirmation of the opt-in, which may involve sending a follow-up email or text message asking the lead to confirm their preferences.

Within the initial communication (be it an email or text), include a specific link that the lead must click to confirm their opt-in. This is known as a trigger link.

Be sure to publish and save the workflow after adding your desired steps to ensure it is properly activated and ready to execute. ### Finalizing the Opt-In Process Set up an additional workflow to initiate when the lead clicks the confirmation trigger link. This action can trigger the next steps in your marketing or engagement strategy, such as enrolling the lead in nurture campaigns, applying tags for segmentation, advancing them through the sales pipeline, or activating other workflows.

Implementing a double opt-in system not only ensures compliance with data protection regulations but also verifies the accuracy of your leads' contact information, enhancing the quality of your communications. Consider setting up a reminder email or text message to be sent a few days after the initial request, gently reminding the lead to confirm their subscription. Test the process yourself by submitting the form and going through the opt-in steps. Ensure that all triggers and actions are functioning as expected. Spam messages can clutter your inbox and distract you from genuine customer inquiries. By setting up an automatic filter within your CRM, you can ensure that your inbox remains clean and focused on relevant communications.

Go to ****Settings****. Screenshot

Search and select Messaging and disable ****Guest Mode**** to require users to log in before messaging or commenting. Consider enabling additional login requirements for added security. *** ## Creating a Spam Filter Workflow in Your CRM The core of spam filtering lies in setting up a workflow within your CRM that automatically identifies and takes action on spam messages based on specific keywords. ### Access the Workflow Section Navigate to ****Automation**** > ****Workflows**** > ****+**** \*\*\*\*Create Workflow. \*\*\*\*Choose to start from scratch to create a new workflow. Screenshot

### Set Up a New Workflow Search and add a \*\*\*\*"Customer Replied" ****trigger**** \*\*\*\*to initiate the workflow whenever a message is received. Screenshot

### Configure the Trigger Specify that the trigger should apply to Facebook Messenger messages. Save the trigger to proceed to the next step. Screenshot

### Implement Spam Detection Add an\*\*\*\* "If/Else" \*\*\*\*condition. Configure the condition to check if the received message contains certain spam keywords (e.g., "business opportunity," "meta support," "join now", "make money fast" ). Input your chosen spam keywords. Screenshot

### Define the Action for Detected Spam For messages identified as spam, set an action to delete the contact, block the sender, or enable DND. This ensures that spam messages are automatically removed from your inbox. Screenshot

Automating spam filtering with your CRM simplifies inbox management and improves the quality of your interactions. By tailoring workflows to detect and act on spam messages, you can focus on meaningful conversations, enhance customer engagement, and maintain a professional online presence. ### Troubleshooting and FAQs Regularly review the keywords list and adjust it to minimize false positives.

### Use Cases Page view tracking can enhance lead nurturing and conversions by enabling tailored follow-ups, such as targeting leads who visit booking pages without scheduling, re-engaging e-commerce visitors who show interest in products but don't purchase, nurturing coaching clients based on subscription interest, or providing proactive customer support for ****"Contact Us"**** page visitors. By monitoring the pages prospects interact with and tailoring your follow-ups, you can address their needs, build trust, and guide them seamlessly through the conversion journey, ensuring every opportunity is maximized. ### Troubleshooting and FAQs While setting up and utilizing page view tracking is straightforward, here are a few tips and answers to common questions to ensure smooth operation: For page view tracking to work, the lead's data must be in the CRM, usually through an opt-in page. Ensure your funnels are structured to capture this information upfront. Always test your workflows in incognito mode or with a fresh lead entry to verify that tracking and subsequent actions are functioning as intended.

If you want to keep responding to messages inside the workflow any response after the first Reply to comment via DM will be a Reply to DM.

After selecting the Reply Type you have to configure the message to send, you can write your message or choose one from your templates. You also can add attachments to your message by clicking select an attachment and uploading it from your drive or entering the URL to add the files.

You can also add buttons to your messages, you can set up the button to redirect the contact to your website or calendar, to give them your number for calls, or to perform a subsequent action inside the workflow. The button names will be displayed as the options for the customer, and the wait step lets the system know how long to wait for the customer to reply before moving them to the default branch.

When the action is added you will see one branch for each button you added and the Default branch so you can add the following actions.

📌Note: When using the Call Number button no further actions can be added underneath, instead the contact will be moved to the Default branch Another action you can use to keep the engagement rolling is "Respond on comment" which allows you to respond to comments directly on the post, you can program multiple responses for this and the system will randomly select the one to use or, by toggling the button, like the comment.

You can also send a Messenger/Instagram DM directly, please keep in mind that for this action to work there is a window of 24 hours in which the conversation has to be active.

Here you can select from your templates or write the message you want to reply with directly, and add any attachments by uploading it from your drive or by adding the URL to them.

Now, you have the basis for how to use the system to respond to your customers via Facebook and Instagram. We hope this helps you drive engagement, brand recognition, and sales!

Documents & Contracts templates help you easily manage agreements with customers and put them in writing. Inside the system, they also provide space for your team members to fill out their information as needed. If you're looking for a way to make this process smoother, workflows might be your best ally. Let's learn how to use them to fill Dynamic Sender fields. *** ## Creating Your Template Navigate to the Documents & Contracts Templates tab inside the Payments, and click New to open the template editor.

Once inside the workflow builder, add the action "Send Documents & Contracts." Screenshot

Select the "From User" (this controls email sending credentials). Screenshot

Choose the template you created with Sender fields in it. Screenshot

Save your action, then save and publish the workflow to complete the configuration. This is especially useful for sales teams, onboarding workflows, and multi-user businesses where ownership changes but the document remains unchanged. We hope it helps you handle your documents with ease! Workflows don't always begin with a contact record. Many automations are triggered by external events, such as webhooks, Marketplace apps, or other system-based actions. To support these cases, Internal Notifications can run even when no contact is enrolled in the workflow. This functionality allows your team to stay informed about operational events without needing to create workarounds. ### How to Use It Create (or open) a workflow with a webhook or Marketplace trigger (e.g., a task created in ClickUp). Screenshot

Add an Internal Notification step and choose the notification type. Screenshot

Select recipients (All Users, Specific Users, or Assigned User), enter channel-specific details, then save the action. Screenshot

Combine with other workflow actions (e.g., task creation, webhooks) to automate full handoffs. Screenshot

Save and publish your workflow. ### Example Use Case A form submission creates a task in ClickUp. Once the external system confirms the task is created, the workflow sends an Internal Notification to the fulfillment team. If you've chosen In-App or Specific Users (email/SMS), the alert goes out immediately—even though no contact entered the workflow. With Internal Notifications working independently of contact records, your team can stay informed about critical operational events across all workflows. Whether triggered by webhooks, Marketplace apps, or other event-based automations, this feature ensures the right people are always notified at the right time—without unnecessary steps.
