ApproveThis manages your Salesgear Integration approvals.

When Sales Hustle Meets Approval Muscle

Let's get real: sales teams move fast, but approvals move like molasses. That's where pairing Salesgear's sales engagement firepower with ApproveThis' approval automation creates something actually useful. We're talking about turning approval bottlenecks into competitive advantages without adding more meetings to everyone's calendar.

Salesgear handles the frontline work - emails, calls, LinkedIn outreach. ApproveThis handles the back-end decisions - contract sign-offs, discount approvals, lead reassignments. Connect them through Zapier, and you've got a system where sales actions automatically trigger approval processes, and approval outcomes automatically update sales records. No more chasing down VPs in Slack.

Why This Combo Works for 50-5000 Employee Companies

Mid-sized companies get squeezed hardest by approval delays. Startups can wing it, enterprises have layers of bureaucracy - but growth-stage teams need structure without speed limits. Here's where the integration delivers:

For Sales Leaders

Ever had a rep offer a 25% discount just to hit quota? With ApproveThis thresholds, any deal over 15% auto-triggers a VP review. Salesgear logs the client comms, ApproveThis handles the internal checks. Deals move faster without blowing margin targets.

For RevOps

Contacts sync between systems automatically when approvals happen. No more manual data entry when a lead gets approved for enterprise-tier pricing. The systems update each other through Zapier, keeping CRMs clean without hourly spreadsheet exports.

For Finance

Every Salesgear interaction that needs a budget check - conference sponsorships, client gifts, travel requests - auto-creates ApproveThis paper trails. Built-in calculated fields ensure compliance before anyone hits "send" on that $5K swag package.

Real-World Use Cases That Don't Suck

1. Killing Bounced Email Limbo

The Problem: Sales emails bounce, reps forget to follow up, leads go cold.
The Fix: When Salesgear detects a bounce, ApproveThis automatically:
- Creates a verification task for the sales ops team
- Routes to IT if domain issues are suspected
- Updates lead status post-approval

Example: A cybersecurity firm reduced lead decay by 37% by treating bounces as approval-required events instead of inbox clutter.

2. Approval-to-Contact Syncing

The Problem: Newly approved leads get stuck in spreadsheet purgatory.
The Fix: When ApproveThis greenlights a trial expansion, Salesgear automatically:
- Creates tagged contacts
- Sets follow-up reminders
- Triggers cadence-based outreach

Example: A SaaS company using this flow increased upsell response time from 48 hours to 19 minutes.

3. Click Tracking That Actually Matters

The Problem: Marketing celebrates email clicks, Sales ignores them.
The Fix: When links get clicked in Salesgear emails, ApproveThis:
- Requires manager approval for hot leads
- Auto-calculates lead score thresholds
- Pushes approved leads to sales queues

Example: An e-commerce supplier stopped wasting 23 hours/week on unqualified click leads by adding approval gates.

Setup That Won't Make You Want to Quit

1. Connect through Zapier: No API coding - use the pre-built ApproveThis-Salesgear templates.
2. Map Your Deal-Breakers: Set ApproveThis thresholds that trigger from Salesgear events (e.g., deals over $50K).
3. Assign Approvers Smartly: Use role-based groups so legal gets contracts, managers get discounts.
4. Test with Dummy Data: Send test emails in Salesgear to trigger ApproveThis flows before going live.

Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis' vacation delegation so approvals never stall when someone's OOO. Sales doesn't care if you're hiking Machu Picchu - they want their deal approved.

Why This Isn't Just Another Integration

Most approval tools make you choose between speed and control. This combo gives both by:

• Keeping external approvers out of your CRM: Clients can approve contracts via email without Salesgear logins.
• Enforcing rules without rigidity: Conditional workflows adapt to deal size, region, product line.

A medical device company used this to slash compliance review time from 14 days to 2 hours by linking Salesgear meeting notes to ApproveThis FDA compliance checks.

Who Actually Benefits from This

Marketing Teams

Get alerted when sales approves/rejects MQL handoffs. No more guessing why sales ignored your 500 leads last quarter.

Field Sales

Approve expense reports from the road via email. Get instant alerts when legal approves NDA revisions during client lunches.

Customer Success

Auto-approve renewal quotes under 10% hikes, escalate bigger changes. Stop playing phone tag with finance.

Bottom Line: Approvals Shouldn't Be a Full-Time Job

If your sales team uses Salesgear, adding ApproveThis via Zapier is like giving them a bureaucratic superpower. Deals get approved faster, compliance happens automatically, and everyone stops wasting time on approval busywork.
