Two Tools Walk Into a Bar...

Picture this: your sales team closes deals faster because approvals don't get stuck in email purgatory. Your project managers actually know what's been greenlit without playing detective. Your finance crew stops chasing people for signatures like they're serving subpoenas. This isn't some corporate fantasy - it's what happens when you connect ApproveThis's approval automation with Corymbus's straightforward CRM through Zapier.

Why This Combo Hits Different

Corymbus keeps your customer data tidy. ApproveThis keeps decisions moving. Together? They turn "waiting on approvals" from a productivity killer into a closed-loop system. We're talking about eliminating the black hole between "submitted" and "approved" that sucks up hours every week.

What You're Working With

Corymbus plays nice with: Contact management, deal tracking, activity logging - all the CRM essentials without the bloat.

ApproveThis brings: Custom approval chains, auto-escalations, and that sweet spot where process meets flexibility.

Real-World Wins (No Fluff Edition)

1. Client Work That Doesn't Stall at "Review"

Marketing agencies: Next time your team logs a client request in Corymbus, imagine it automatically kicking off a approval chain for budget, scope, or creative review. The account lead gets notified via email (no new login required), approves directly from their inbox, and Corymbus auto-creates a project opportunity. Client starts seeing work 48 hours faster. You look like heroes.

2. Freelance Squads Acting Like a Firm

Creative collectives: When your designer submits a new client asset through Corymbus, trigger a legal review in ApproveThis. The contract pro (who doesn't need your CRM license) approves the file, which auto-updates both systems. No more "Did legal clear this?" Slack threads. Just work that's actually cleared to ship.

3. Consultants Closing Loops

Implementation teams: That change order logged in Corymbus? Set it to require dual approval from both the project lead and client sponsor. ApproveThis handles the parallel approvals, then auto-creates the opportunity in Corymbus once both sign off. Less herding cats, more hitting deadlines.

Setting This Up Without the Headache

Here's the brass tacks:

  1. Grab your Zapier account
  2. Connect Corymbus and ApproveThis as apps
  3. Pick your trigger (e.g., "New Activity in Corymbus")
  4. Set the action ("Create Approval Request in ApproveThis")
  5. Map the key fields (keep it simple to start)

Pro tip: Use ApproveThis's calculated fields to auto-flag high-value deals needing extra approvals. A $50K opportunity in Corymbus? Make it require CFO sign-off without manual intervention.

Who Gets the Biggest Boost?

Sales Teams

Deal discounts stuck in approval limbo? Set approval thresholds in ApproveThis so anything under 10% auto-approves, bigger deals route to sales directors. Approved discounts auto-update Corymbus opportunities. Forecast accuracy just leveled up.

Operations Crews

New vendor request in Corymbus? Auto-route to procurement, legal, and finance with defined SLAs. Miss the deadline? ApproveThis escalates it up the chain. Vendor setup time drops from weeks to days.

Client-Facing Teams

Client submits a change order through Corymbus? Require internal PM and external stakeholder approval via ApproveThis. Both sides see real-time status without login gymnastics. Client trust compounds.

No One Told You About These Secret Weapons

While you're setting this up, steal these moves:

  • Vacation Overrides: Approvers OOO? ApproveThis auto-reroutes to their backup. No more "Waiting on Jim's approval" when Jim's on a beach.
  • Approval Groups: Need consensus from the whole legal team? Or sequential approvals from regional managers? Configure once, then forget about micromanaging the chain.

The Bottom Line (Because We Know You're Busy)

Connecting Corymbus and ApproveThis isn't about adding more process - it's about making existing processes actually work. Deals move faster because approvals aren't lost. Clients stay happy because visibility isn't a black box. Teams stay sane because they're not playing approval tag.

Best part? Approvers don't need another software license. Your client's legal team can approve contracts without getting added to your CRM. Partners can review proposals without you buying seats. That's the kind of efficiency that makes finance teams smile.

Ready to stop being a human router for approval requests? Get ApproveThis rolling, hook it up to Corymbus via Zapier, and start measuring your week in shipped projects instead of pending approvals.
