ApproveThis manages your Grawt Integration approvals.

Two Platforms, One Goal

When lead generation meets approval automation, businesses move faster. Grawt creates marketing momentum by capturing and nurturing leads, while ApproveThis adds governance through structured decision-making. Together through Zapier, they form a complete system for managing opportunities – from first contact to final approval.

Marketing teams using Grawt gain an edge through automated lead journeys. But when those leads require internal reviews – for budget approval, compliance checks, or sales handoffs – manual processes create bottlenecks. ApproveThis removes friction by automating approval workflows directly within existing lead management systems. The result? Faster cycle times and better-aligned teams.

What Each Platform Brings

Grawt's Superpower

Grawt specializes in converting anonymous visitors into qualified leads through targeted campaigns and personalized journeys. Its strength lies in automated nurturing sequences that keep prospects engaged until they're ready for sales conversations. However, many organizations hit roadblocks when leads require internal validation before progressing to next steps.

ApproveThis' Missing Piece

ApproveThis solves the approval gap with configurable workflows that adapt to company policies. While Grawt manages external prospect relationships, ApproveThis handles internal decision-making processes. Key features like approval thresholds (auto-approving requests under $500) and vacation delegation (never waiting for unavailable managers) ensure continuous momentum.

Real-World Workflows

Use Case 1: Lead Qualification Gatekeeper

A marketing agency uses Grawt to capture leads through webinar registrations. Their sales team only wants leads scoring above 80 points. Using Zapier, they connect Grawt's new lead trigger to ApproveThis, automatically creating approval requests for high-score prospects. Approvers receive email notifications with lead details and one-click approval options.

Result: Sales reps spend 100% of their time on pre-approved leads, while marketing gains visibility into which lead attributes get approved fastest.

Use Case 2: Compliance Checkpoint

A financial services firm nurtures leads through Grawt's educational content journeys. Before scheduling consultations, compliance requires verifying prospect credentials. The Zapier integration triggers ApproveThis workflows that route requests to compliance officers, who review attached documents directly from the approval interface.

Result: 78% faster compliance reviews compared to manual email chains, with full audit trails for regulators.

Technical Setup Made Simple

Connecting Grawt and ApproveThis takes under 15 minutes through Zapier. No coding required – just match triggers and actions:

1. Create Zapier account (if new to automation)
2. Choose Grawt as trigger app ("New Lead" event)
3. Select ApproveThis as action app ("Create Request")
4. Map lead data to approval request fields
5. Test with sample lead

Critical advantage: External approvers (clients, partners) only need email access – no additional software licenses. Approval decisions sync back to Grawt automatically, updating lead statuses without manual data entry.

Team-Specific Benefits

Marketing Teams

Accelerate campaign ROI by tying lead quality directly to approval metrics. If 40% of webinar leads get rejected in approvals, marketers can adjust targeting before the next event. Real-time approval tracking in ApproveThis dashboards shows exactly when leads move to sales pipelines.

Sales Teams

Eliminate wasted outreach with pre-approved leads. Sales reps receive Grawt leads only after necessary internal checks (budget verification, technical feasibility). Approval comments in ApproveThis provide ready-made discovery call talking points.

Operations Teams

Maintain control without slowing growth. Configure multi-tiered approvals for high-value deals while auto-approving small opportunities. Vacation coverage rules prevent deal stagnation during time-offs.

Advanced Features Worth Noting

While the core integration focuses on lead approvals, combining these platforms unlocks additional capabilities:

Calculated Fields: Automatically flag leads requiring executive approval based on deal size. Example: If Grawt lead data shows potential contract value >$25K, route to VP-level approvers.

Conditional Pathing: Approved leads continue down Grawt's nurture path; rejected ones trigger win-back sequences. All decision logic stays centralized in ApproveThis.

Cross-Platform Reporting: Correlate Grawt's lead source analytics with ApproveThis' approval rates. Identify which marketing channels produce the most approvable leads.

When to Consider This Integration

This combination makes sense for businesses experiencing:

• Delays between lead capture and sales follow-up
• Friction between marketing and sales teams over lead quality
• Compliance requirements slowing deal progression

A mid-sized SaaS company reduced their sales cycle by 11 days after implementing this integration. Marketing-qualified leads now automatically route through legal approval workflows before hitting sales pipelines, ensuring every opportunity is both viable and compliant.

Getting Started

Begin with a single approval workflow that addresses your biggest bottleneck. Common starting points:

Lead Scoring Thresholds: Auto-approve leads above certain scores while routing others for manual review

Geographic Approvals: Route leads from new regions to specialized sales teams after territory manager sign-off

Upsell Opportunities: Flag existing customers showing expansion signals in Grawt, triggering renewal discount approvals

ApproveThis offers a free tier for basic workflows, while Grawt provides campaign-specific pricing. Through Zapier, even non-technical teams can connect the platforms within minutes – no waiting for IT support.

Final Recommendation

Companies using Grawt for lead generation often underestimate the internal approval costs hidden in their sales processes. By adding ApproveThis through Zapier, organizations gain:

• 25-40% faster approval cycles
• Complete audit trails for compliance
• Higher sales team productivity

The integration works particularly well for businesses with complex approval hierarchies or regulated industries requiring documented decision-making. Best of all, it scales from simple 1-step approvals to multi-departmental reviews without overhauling existing systems.
