ApproveThis manages your Linq Integration approvals.

When Contact Management Meets Approval Muscle

Let's get real - most companies treat approvals like a necessary evil. Endless email chains, forgotten requests, and that one approver who's always on vacation. Now imagine if your contact management system could actually talk to your approval workflows. That's what happens when you connect ApproveThis and Linq through Zapier.

Linq's slick digital business cards and contact capture meets ApproveThis' no-BS approval automation. For teams tired of chasing signatures or losing track of new leads, this combo turns "Did you approve that?" into "It's already handled."

Why This Integration Doesn't Suck

Most app integrations just move data between screens. This one actually fixes three specific headaches for mid-sized companies:

• No more contact limbo: New leads get routed for approval before clogging your CRM
• Zero license creep: Approvers can OK requests without needing Linq logins
• Actual accountability: See who approved what contact action and when

Take a sales team using Linq at a trade show. Every scanned badge creates a contact... and 300 unvetted leads. With ApproveThis, those get auto-routed to sales managers. Approved contacts flow into outreach sequences. Denied ones get archived. No more junior reps chasing tire-kickers.

Real-World Uses That Don't Feel Like Corporate BS

1. The Gatekeeper for Your CRM

Marketing teams running webinars love dumping registrants into CRMs. Until sales gets stuck with 500 unqualified leads. Connect Linq to ApproveThis and:

• New Linq contacts trigger approval requests
• Sales ops approves/denies based on lead score
• Auto-add only approved contacts to Salesforce

An industrial equipment company used this to cut their sales team's junk leads by 40% last quarter. Their VP Sales actually smiled in a meeting.

2. Client Onboarding That Doesn't Make People Quit

Service firms waste weeks getting client contacts approved across departments. Connect the dots:

• New Linq contact from client meeting
• Auto-route to legal, compliance, and project leads
• Parallel approvals via ApproveThis groups
• Only fully-approved contacts get added to shared systems

A 200-person consulting firm shaved 8 days off their average onboarding. Their clients noticed.

Setting This Up Without Calling IT

If you can make toast, you can connect these apps:

1. Log into Zapier (you have an account, right?)
2. Choose Linq as trigger app
3. Pick "New Contact Created"
4. Connect ApproveThis as action app
5. Map Linq fields to approval request form

Pro tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to auto-flag contacts needing exec review. Like any deal over $50k gets auto-routed to VP.

Why Your Teams Will Actually Use This

Sales Ops Stops Playing Secretary

Field reps collect contacts like Pokémon cards. Sales ops used to manually vet each one. Now ApproveThis handles:

• Auto-approvals for contacts meeting criteria
• Escalations only when needed
• Reassignments when approvers are OOO

Marketing Finally Gets Out of the Spreadsheet Dungeon

No more exporting Linq contacts to Excel for approval tracking. Campaign leads get real-time dashboards showing:

• Pending event contact approvals
• Average approval time per campaign
• Bottlenecks in review process

Client Services Avoids the CC: All Apocalypse

New client contacts get automatically routed through:

• Compliance review
• Conflict checks
• Project assignment

All without a single "Reply all" email.

Features You'll Use More Than Your Standing Desk

ApproveThis brings the muscle to make this integration actually useful:

• Approval thresholds: Auto-approve contacts under $10k potential value
• Vacation coverage: No more "Waiting on Bob" statuses
• Email approvals: Approvers don't need another login

A logistics company uses approval thresholds to auto-approve 60% of vendor contacts. Their procurement team now focuses on high-value relationships instead of paperwork.

The Bottom Line That Actually Matters

This integration isn't about cool tech - it's about fixing the approval garbage that slows down companies with 50-5,000 employees. When your contact management actually talks to your approval workflows, you:

• Stop losing deals to approval delays
• Keep CRMs clean without manual work
• Give execs visibility without micromanaging

It's like giving your Ops team superpowers without the cape (those get stuck in office chairs anyway).

Make the "Before" Photo History
