Generate and track invoices automatically when a deal closes

When a HubSpot deal closes, this creates an invoice, emails it, tracks payment, and alerts your team if it's late.

How the work actually flows

It repeats. Every path runs; repeats reminders resend until paid; a person is alerted when a step fails.

The problem it solves

Chasing invoices after a sale closes is easy to forget, and unpaid bills can sit for weeks before anyone notices. You end up manually building invoices, emailing them, and then trying to remember who still owes you money.

Who it fits

Sales and finance teams at small businesses who use HubSpot to manage deals.

How it works

  1. A HubSpot deal moves to Closed Won
  2. Deal and contact details are pulled together into an invoice
  3. The invoice is turned into a PDF and emailed to the client
  4. The invoice is logged in Google Sheets and Notion, and the team is notified in Slack
  5. Payment status is checked automatically, with reminders and escalation alerts if it goes unpaid
What you get

Invoices sent the moment a deal closes

The moment a deal closes, an invoice goes out, payment gets tracked, and your team hears about it right away if it's late.

What you get

A sent invoice, a payment record, and Slack alerts for sent, paid, or overdue invoices.

What you need

A HubSpot account, Gmail, Google Sheets, Notion, and Slack.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
