A lead fills out a form on your website. Are you still having to key information into Salesforce or rely on email notifications to respond to the request? In this episode of “Drinking Our Own Champagne,” Venn’s Founder and Managing Partner, Scott Hollrah, and Brent Bertolio, Account Executive, discuss how automation can take your lead routing process to the next level.

 

Featured applications: 

  • Slack: Members of specific lead source channels are notified when a web form is filled out or when someone opens a chat on our website. Team members can respond to live chat messages on the website from specified Slack channels.
  • HubSpot: The marketing platform that syncs with Salesforce and captures lead information via embedded forms on the website and chatbots. HubSpot captures the chat history on the contact record which syncs to Salesforce.
