Workflow Examples¶
Here are common workflows you can build in Outsprint. Use these as starting points and customize them for your process.
New Lead Follow-Up¶
Trigger: Contact created, source = form submission
Actions:
- Create a task for the contact owner: "Follow up with new lead"
- Send a welcome email using the "Welcome" template
Why: Ensures every inbound lead gets prompt attention without relying on manual monitoring.
Deal Stale Alert¶
Trigger: Date-based, 7 days since deal stage change
Actions:
- Send a notification to the deal owner: "Deal hasn't moved in 7 days"
- Send a Slack message to #sales: "Deal {{deal.name}} stalled at {{deal.stage}}"
Why: Prevents deals from quietly stalling in your pipeline without anyone noticing.
Closed Won Celebration¶
Trigger: Deal closed won
Actions:
- Send a Slack message to #sales-wins: "{{deal.owner}} just closed {{deal.name}} for {{deal.amount}}!"
- Update the contact's lifecycle stage to "Customer"
- Create a task: "Schedule onboarding kickoff call"
Why: Celebrates wins publicly and ensures the handoff to onboarding begins immediately.
Ticket Escalation¶
Trigger: Ticket SLA approaching breach (75% of time elapsed)
Actions:
- If ticket is unassigned: assign to the team lead
- Send a notification to the ticket owner: "SLA breach approaching"
- Add a tag: "Escalated"
Why: Gives your team a chance to respond before SLA targets are missed.
Onboarding Sequence¶
Trigger: Deal closed won
Actions:
- Create task: "Send welcome package" (due: 1 day)
- Delay: 3 days
- Create task: "Schedule kickoff call" (due: 2 days)
- Delay: 7 days
- Create task: "Check in on onboarding progress" (due: 3 days)
Why: Automates the post-sale onboarding process so nothing falls through the cracks.
