How the work actually flows

It branches. Exactly one path is taken.

The problem it solves

When you run a lead generation campaign with coupons, keeping track of who has a code, whether it's already been used, and whether someone is trying to submit twice becomes a manual headache. Mistakes here mean duplicate coupons, reused codes, or leads who never get their reward.

Who it fits

A business running a lead generation campaign that rewards new leads with a coupon.

How it works

  1. A new lead submits your form.
  2. The system checks whether that email already exists to prevent duplicates.
  3. An unused coupon is pulled and assigned to the lead.
  4. The lead is created as a new record in your CRM connected to that coupon.
  5. A QR code is generated and emailed to the lead, and future scans are checked against the used list.
What you get

Coupons issued without any duplicates or reuse

Every new lead gets a unique coupon by email right away, and the system makes sure no code is ever issued twice or reused.

What you get

A unique coupon assigned per lead, a new CRM record, and a validation check for every scan.

What you need

A Google Sheets account, a SuiteCRM account, and an email sending service.

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.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
