When CRMs Meet Approval Automation
Let's be real - real estate teams using AgentLocator didn't sign up to play paperwork ping-pong. You want to move leads through your pipeline, not chase down signatures for every new listing agreement or commission approval. That's where pairing AgentLocator with ApproveThis changes the game.
ApproveThis acts like your approval quarterback. When connected through Zapier, it automatically turns key events in AgentLocator (new leads, updated listings, client changes) into structured approval processes. Sales managers get decisions faster without leaving their inbox, while brokers maintain control over big-ticket commitments.
The kicker? Approvers don't need AgentLocator logins. Whether you're getting client sign-offs or coordinating with external contractors, people can approve/reject requests directly via email. No extra software seats required.
Why This Combo Works for Mid-Sized Teams
Companies between 50-5,000 employees hit unique scaling pains. You're big enough that "just Slack John about it" doesn't cut it anymore, but small enough that buying enterprise software feels like using a sledgehammer to hang picture frames.
Here's where the integration shines:
- No approval black holes: Track every lead-related request in one dashboard instead of digging through emails
- Auto-escalate the big stuff: Set $$ thresholds so million-dollar listings automatically route to brokers while smaller deals stay with team leads
A property management company we worked with slashed their contract approval time from 72 hours to 4 hours using these triggers. Their secret sauce? Automatic vacation reassignments - no more waiting for Karen from accounting to return from Maui.
Real-World Use Cases That Don't Suck
1. New Lead? Instant Approval Chain
When AgentLocator captures a new lead (say, a $2M commercial listing), Zapier triggers an ApproveThis workflow requiring:
- Lead agent confirmation
- Broker review if commission exceeds $50k
- Legal team sign-off for multi-state clients
Who this helps: Brokerages handling high-value properties where compliance is non-negotiable. Approval groups ensure the right eyes see deals matching their expertise.
2. Approved Requests = Auto-Updated CRM
When managers approve a client concession (like covering closing costs), ApproveThis pushes the update back to AgentLocator via Zapier. Your CRM stays current without manual data entry.
Pro tip: Add calculated fields to auto-flag approvals needing budget adjustments. If closing cost credits exceed 3% of sale price, require CFO review.
3. Change Requests That Don't Get Lost
Ever had a buyer request contract changes that slip through the cracks? When agents update leads in AgentLocator, trigger parallel approval workflows in ApproveThis. All stakeholders get notified, can comment via email, and decisions automatically update both systems.
Cool factor: Use conditional logic so only material changes (price adjustments >5%, inspection contingencies) require full approvals. Small tweaks? Let junior agents greenlight.
Setting This Up Without Losing Your Mind
If you can make toast, you can connect these systems:
- Create Zapier account (free tier works)
- Choose AgentLocator as trigger app
- Pick ApproveThis as action app
- Map key fields (lead value → approval threshold, client type → approver group)
Most teams build their first workflow in 18 minutes. The property management company mentioned earlier now runs 23 different approval automations - their IT guy set it up during one halftime show.
Department-Specific Wins
Sales Teams
Agents live in AgentLocator - now approvals come to them. Automatic reminders nudge slow approvers, while real-time tracking shows exactly where deals stall. No more "I thought YOU approved that!"
Operations
Auto-route vendor contracts (staging, photography) based on project budgets. Below $5k? Team lead approves. Over $5k? Operations director + CFO get sequential approvals. Audit trails built-in.
Finance
Commission approvals with calculated fields (sale price × agreement %) auto-validate numbers. Thresholds ensure large payouts get extra scrutiny. Integrate with accounting software next.
Why This Isn't Just Another Integration
Most CRM connectors just shuffle data. This combo actually changes decision velocity. Example:
A 150-agent brokerage reduced their listing approval time from 2 days to 45 minutes. How? When new AgentLocator leads meet certain criteria (price, location, client type), ApproveThis:
- Checks approver availability (vacation delegation)
- Routes to correct group (residential vs commercial)
- Updates AgentLocator upon approval
They closed 18% more deals last quarter. Coincidence? Unlikely.
Getting Started Without the BS
ApproveThis offers a free tier for up to 10 workflows. Pair it with your existing AgentLocator account through Zapier - no new contracts needed.
