Notify your team and reply automatically to every form submission

When someone fills out your form, the system alerts your team, emails the person back, and saves their contact info.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Every path runs.

The problem it solves

Every form submission needs a quick reply and a heads-up to your team, but doing that by hand for each one is easy to forget or delay. Leads and inquiries can go cold if nobody responds fast enough. Keeping your contacts list updated with every new submission adds even more manual work.

Who it fits

Best for small businesses handling lead capture, client inquiries, or feedback forms.

How it works

  1. A new row appears in your connected spreadsheet from a form submission
  2. A Slack message notifies your team with the submission details
  3. A personalized email reply is sent to the person automatically
  4. Their details are saved as a new Google Contact
What you get

Leads greeted the moment they submit a form

Your team gets notified instantly and every new inquiry receives a personal reply and a saved contact record.

What you get

An instant team notification, an automatic reply to the submitter, and a saved contact record.

What you need

A Google account with Sheets and Contacts access, a Gmail account, and a Slack account.

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.
