Automate lead research, scoring, and follow-up drafts
A Make workflow can qualify leads from CRM data, then write personalized follow-up drafts for sales to review.
- What they did
- They built a Make scenario around HubSpot contact records and linked it with Slack, Gmail, and Google Calendar. The agent checks each lead, assigns a score, and prepares a tailored reply draft automatically. Slack alerts keep the sales team informed, while Gmail drafts and calendar availability support the next step in outreach.
- How it went
- The setup is meant to leave the sales team free to spend more time closing deals while the agent handles qualification and draft follow-up. The thread did not include score examples, performance metrics, or any reported problems.
- Tips
- This kind of workflow depends on access to Make plus the connected apps, so it works best when your CRM and email/calendar tools are already in place. If you want to try it, start with a small lead batch and review the drafts before using them in real outreach.
Try it yourself with Make
Create a Make scenario that watches for new leads from [lead source], pulls in company and contact details, researches each lead on the web, and scores them from 1 to 10 based on [ideal customer profile]. For any lead at or above [score threshold], draft a personalized follow-up email that mentions one relevant detail from the research and save it in [email tool] as a draft. Also notify me in [chat tool] with the score and a short summary. Stop after preparing drafts for the first [number] leads, and pause for my approval before sending, deleting, submitting, or changing anything permanent.
Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
