What are Workflows? Plus
Workflows automate lead communication in Flashquotes with intelligent email sequences. The platform offers five workflow triggers: Quote Requested workflows that engage leads immediately after form submission, Quote Sent workflows that follow up after you send quotes, Quote Booked workflows that automate post-booking communications, and event-based triggers (First Event Start and Last Event End) that automate communications around actual event dates.Available Features
- Quote Requested Workflows: Automatically engage leads the moment they submit your lead intake form
- Quote Sent Workflows: Customizable email sequence for quote follow-ups — create multiple workflows and choose which one to use when sending each quote
- Quote Booked Workflows: Automate post-booking communications when a quote is booked
- First Event Start Workflows: Time-sensitive communications before, during, or after the first event begins
- Last Event End Workflows: Post-event follow-ups and re-engagement campaigns after the final event concludes
- Flexible Workflow Management: Add, edit, or delete workflow steps to match your sales process
- Automated Timing: Configure follow-up intervals optimized for your business
- Automatic Rescheduling: Event-based workflows reschedule when event dates change
- Dynamic Content: Shortcodes automatically insert quote, lead, and booking details
- Email Templates: Pre-built templates for Quote Sent workflows, fully customizable for others
- Gmail Integration: Choose which connected Gmail account sends workflow emails
- Multiple Workflows per Trigger: Create multiple workflows for the same trigger and set a default
- Resume Capability: Restart stopped workflows when leads re-engage
