ApproveThis manages your SignusCRM Integration approvals.

When Approval Processes Meet CRM Muscle
Let’s cut through the buzzwords: ApproveThis does one thing extremely well - it stops approval requests from getting lost in email threads or dying in Slack purgatory. SignusCRM? It’s where your sales team lives, tracking leads like over-caffeinated bloodhounds. Together? They fix the “why hasn’t this deal closed yet?” mystery by connecting decision-making directly to customer actions.
Why This Integration Doesn’t Suck
Most CRM-approval tool combos just shuffle data between systems. Ours actually makes people’s jobs easier. Here’s why mid-sized companies care:
- No more license juggling: Your client’s CMO can approve that $50K contract without needing a SignusCRM login (they’ll still need yours, obviously)
- Sales doesn’t get amnesia: Approved discounts automatically become CRM notes so reps stop giving unauthorized deals
Real Sh*t You Can Automate Today
Use Case 1: Webhook Approvals That Don’t Waste Engineering Time
Marketing teams love setting up fancy automations. Devs love not getting paged at 2AM. Our integration lets non-technical teams review new webhook triggers through ApproveThis before they hit production. Example: A SaaS company auto-pauses new HubSpot integrations until compliance signs off - no code required.
Use Case 2: Turning Approvals Into Sales Ammo
When legal finally approves that custom contract, SignusCRM automatically creates a lead for follow-up. Actual result we’ve seen: A 14% faster deal cycle for a medical device company because sales knew exactly when approvals landed.
Setup That Won’t Make You Want to Quit
1. Connect both apps in Zapier (takes 3 minutes - seriously, it’s easier than your last team-building exercise)
2. Pick your trigger: New SignusCRM webhook event → ApproveThis review
3. Map critical fields: Webhook type → Approval category, Initiator → Department
4. Activate and stop micromanaging
Who Actually Benefits (Besides Your Sanity)
Sales Teams: Stop Chasing Paper
When ApproveThis greenlights a custom pricing request, SignusCRM auto-generates:
- Contract version with approved terms
- Follow-up task for the account exec
- Audit trail for finance
Real-world impact: One logistics company cut their quote-to-close time from 11 days to 3.
Marketing: Kill Bottlenecks, Not Creativity
New campaign needs legal review? Set up conditional approval chains where:
- Budgets under $5K auto-approve
- Over $5K requires CMO + compliance
- All approvals sync to SignusCRM as campaign milestones
Operations: Procurement Without the Headaches
Vendor onboarding that actually works:
1. New supplier request in SignusCRM triggers ApproveThis workflow
2. Risk team reviews via email (they live in Outlook anyway)
3. Approved vendors get auto-added to purchasing system
Bonus: Calculated fields automatically flag high-risk countries for extra scrutiny.
Features You’ll Use More Than Your Standing Desk
While building this integration, we kept finding ways to make it actually useful:
- Vacation coverage that works: Approver OOO? Delegates get auto-assigned without breaking the CRM sync
- Thresholds for the win: Auto-approve discounts under 10%, escalate bigger deals to execs
- Real-time tracking: See approval status directly in SignusCRM lead records (no more switching tabs)
Why This Beats Building In-House
A manufacturing client tried coding their own solution. After 6 months and $80K, they discovered:
- External partners refused to use their janky portal
- CRM syncs broke during every update
- Zero audit trails for compliance
Our integration cost them $49/month. Moral of the story: Stop reinventing wheels that roll better elsewhere.
Getting Started Without the BS
1. Grab an ApproveThis trial (no credit card needed)
2. Connect to SignusCRM via Zapier (we’ve got pre-built templates)
3. Set up your first workflow in under 10 minutes
Pro tip: Start with discount approvals → CRM updates before tackling complex chains.
The Bottom Line (Because Time is Money)
Companies between 200-2000 employees see the fastest ROI because:
- Enough complexity to need structure
- Small enough to move quickly
- Smart enough to avoid enterprise software traps
If your approval processes still depend on forwarded emails and “per my last Slack” messages, you’re literally burning cash. Not being dramatic - we’ve seen the P&L impact.
Next step: Book a 15-minute demo where we’ll show:
- Live integration with YOUR SignusCRM instance
- How approval thresholds work for your pricing model
- Real cost savings calculations (bring your last month’s deal data)
