Why Your Marketing Team Hates Your Current Process
Let's paint a picture: Your Interact quiz just identified a hot lead who's ready to buy. They download your pricing sheet, request a demo, and... your sales team starts a three-day email chain debating who should handle it. By Tuesday, your prospect's moved on to a competitor who actually answers their damn phone.
This is why we built the ApproveThis-Interact integration. Not to make your life marginally better, but to eliminate the bureaucratic sludge that turns marketing wins into lost revenue. Here's how it works:
The Nerd Stuff Made Simple
Interact creates lead-generating quizzes. ApproveThis creates enforceable decision processes. Connect them through Zapier, and you get automatic approval chains that move at the speed of your business.
Key technical details:
- Triggers when new Interact leads hit your system
- Routes approval requests based on lead score, department, or custom rules
- Pushes approved leads directly into your CRM/email workflows
But let's skip the sales pitch. You care about what this actually fixes.
Three Teams That Stop Hating Each Other
1. Marketing: From Lead Gen to Revenue Proof
Your CMO loves Interact's lead numbers but can't prove ROI. Here's why:
Example: A SaaS company uses an "Which plan is right for you?" quiz. High-intent leads get stuck waiting for sales approvals. With ApproveThis:
- Leads scoring 80+ auto-route to Sales Directors
- Mid-tier leads trigger discount approval workflows
- All others get immediate nurture sequences
Actual result from a 200-person fintech: 23% faster lead response time, 15% increase in qualified demos booked.
2. Sales: Stop Chasing Interns for Sign-Offs
Your AE closes a deal that needs legal review. Instead of CC'ing 12 people and praying:
- Create approval request in ApproveThis
- Legal team gets email with embedded contract
- One-click approve/deny with comments
- Approved docs auto-sync to Salesforce
Bonus: Use calculated fields to auto-flag contracts over $50K for exec review. No more manual checking.
3. Operations: Kill Shadow Approvals
Every company has that one manager who "forgets" to approve PTO requests. Our solution:
- Interact quiz collects vacation requests
- ApproveThis routes based on department/date
- Auto-delegate if approver is OOO
- Denied requests trigger alternative options
Pro tip: Set approval thresholds to auto-approve requests under 3 days if within policy.
Setup That Doesn't Require an IT Ticket
We've all seen "easy" integrations that need a developer. This isn't that.
5-minute setup:
- Connect Interact to Zapier
- Choose your trigger (new lead, specific quiz completion)
- Map quiz responses to ApproveThis fields
- Set approval rules (consensus vs. sequential, thresholds)
- Test with live data
Critical note: Approvers don't need Interact licenses. Huge for external partners or frugal finance teams.
Real-World Use Cases for Teams That Give a Damn
Use Case 1: Enterprise Sales Pipeline Triage
A 1,200-employee cybersecurity firm uses Interact's "Threat Assessment" quiz. High-risk leads trigger:
1. Immediate ApproveThis workflow
2. Security team validates lead's infrastructure details
3. Approved leads get assigned to senior AEs
4. Denied leads enter technical nurture track
Result: 40% reduction in wasted sales cycles.
Use Case 2: E-commerce Flash Sales
Fashion retailer runs Interact "Style Quiz" during Black Friday. Leads requesting discounts over 30%:
- Auto-route to regional managers via ApproveThis
- Approve/deny with custom promo codes
- Codes sync to Klaviyo in real-time
Outcome: Processed 2,800 discount requests in 72 hours with two junior staffers.
Features You'll Actually Use (No Bloatware Here)
We know you hate paying for unused features. Here's what matters:
Email approvals: Approvers can reject sketchy leads from their phone during your competitor's boring webinar.
Vacation delegation: Sales director at the airport? Requests auto-reassign to their VP without missing SLAs.
Real-time tracking: Prove to your C-suite that marketing leads aren't rotting in someone's inbox.
When to Call BS on This Integration
This isn't magic fairy dust. It works if:
- You get ≥100 Interact leads/month
- Multiple teams touch each lead
- You track approval bottlenecks in Excel (ouch)
It's overkill if you're a 5-person startup where everyone shares a Slack channel.
Your Move
You've got two options:
1. Keep letting Interact leads decay while approvers hunt down sticky notes with passwords
2. Try ApproveThis free for 14 days (no CC required)
Choose wisely.
