Automate new customer onboarding across HubSpot and Gmail

When a new customer signs up, this sends a welcome email, books a kickoff call, and assigns them a manager.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Every path runs.

The problem it solves

Every new client means manually sending a welcome email, finding time on a calendar for a kickoff call, and updating the CRM with the right owner. When you're busy, a step gets missed and the client's first impression suffers.

Who it fits

Customer success or sales teams onboarding new clients.

How it works

  1. A new contact is created in HubSpot
  2. The system identifies which team member should manage the new customer
  3. AI writes a personalized welcome email
  4. A welcome meeting is scheduled on Google Calendar
  5. The email is sent and the customer is assigned to their manager in HubSpot
What you get

Welcome emails and kickoff calls booked untouched

Every new customer of yours receives a welcome email, gets a kickoff call booked, and is assigned a manager the moment they sign up.

What you get

A sent welcome email, a scheduled kickoff meeting, and an updated HubSpot record with the right owner assigned.

What you need

A HubSpot account, a Google Workspace account, and an OpenAI API key.

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.
