When Bots and Bosses Actually Get Along
Let’s be real – managing LinkedIn campaigns through Growth-X is like having a hyperactive sales intern who works 24/7. But the second you need human approval for messaging prospects or adding leads to campaigns, everything grinds to a halt. That’s where ApproveThis comes in like a bouncer with a clipboard, keeping your automation from turning into a spam circus while still letting the good leads through.
Why This Pairing Works Better Than Free Conference Swag
Growth-X handles the heavy lifting of LinkedIn prospecting, but approvals are still stuck in 2012 – think Slack pings that get buried, spreadsheet trackers nobody updates, and clients who “forget” to check their email. ApproveThis adds guardrails without speed bumps:
- No more rogue messages: Automatically flag campaigns/messages needing legal or client review before Growth-X sends them
- Zero license headaches: Clients/execs approve directly via email without needing Growth-X logins
We’ve seen marketing agencies cut 6 hours/week just by not having to chase down “Hey, did you see my Slack about approving those LinkedIn invites?” messages.
Real-World Fixes for Problems You Actually Have
1. Keeping Sales Teams From Going Rogue on LinkedIn
Scenario: Your sales team uses Growth-X to auto-connect with prospects. Except last month, someone messaged 500 leads with “Hey [First Name], want a demo?” and now marketing’s cleaning up the mess.
The Fix: Use Zapier to trigger an ApproveThis workflow every time Growth-X picks up a new lead. Sales ops gets veto power before any auto-messages fire. Bonus: Set approval thresholds so only high-value accounts need human review.
2. Client Reporting That Doesn’t Make You Want to Cry
Scenario: Your agency runs LinkedIn campaigns for clients through Growth-X, but they keep asking “Why are we messaging this CFO in Wisconsin?”
The Fix: Auto-send prospect lists from Growth-X to ApproveThis for client review. They get a clean approval email with key details (industry, company size), click approve/reject, and rejects automatically get pulled from the campaign. No more 50-page PDFs nobody reads.
3. Escaping Approval Purgatory
Scenario: Your Growth-X campaign is ready to launch, but it’s stuck waiting for legal to review the messaging. Legal’s on vacation. Campaign gets delayed. Again.
The Fix: ApproveThis’ vacation delegation automatically reroutes approvals to a backup reviewer. Combine with automatic escalation rules – if legal doesn’t approve within 24hrs, it goes to their VP. Suddenly campaigns launch on time.
How to Set This Up Without Calling IT
1. Connect the Apps: In Zapier, link your Growth-X and ApproveThis accounts (takes 2 minutes).
2. Pick Your Trigger: Like “When Growth-X adds a new prospect” or “When a message template is updated”.
3. Build Approval Rules: Set who needs to approve what – clients for prospect lists, legal for message templates, etc.
4. Add Auto-Actions: Approved? Growth-X sends the message. Denied? Prospect gets removed from the campaign.
Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis’ calculated fields to auto-approve low-risk prospects (ex: under $50k deal size) while flagging enterprise leads for review.
Who Actually Benefits From This?
Marketing Teams
Stop being the LinkedIn police. Set approval rules for campaign messaging up front, then let Growth-X run while ApproveThis handles exceptions. 30% fewer “Why did we message this person?” fires to put out.
Sales Ops
Enforce territory rules without micromanaging. Auto-flag Growth-X prospects that don’t match ICP criteria, route to correct AE for approval. Cut lead routing errors by half.
Agencies
Give clients visibility without access. They approve prospect lists via email, you keep control of the Growth-X login. No more “Can you resend the invite? I lost it” delays.
The Fine Print That Actually Matters
Approvals via email mean even your least tech-savvy client can click “Approve” without downloading an app. Growth-X still does the automation heavy lifting, ApproveThis just stops it from face-planting. And no – this isn’t “set it and forget it.” You still need to check reports. But now you’re checking them poolside instead of in panic mode.
Time to Stop Being LinkedIn’s Janitor
Growth-X handles the robots. ApproveThis handles the humans. Together, they keep your LinkedIn outreach from either a) going silent waiting for approvals or b) turning into spam cannon. Either way, you look competent – and isn’t that half the battle?
