Why QuickTapSurvey Needs Approval Automation
QuickTapSurvey solves one problem beautifully: capturing real-world data from customers, employees, or events - even without internet. But here's where things get messy for growing companies: what happens after you collect that data?
Picture this: Your field team just gathered 200 product feedback cards at a trade show using QuickTapSurvey. Now marketing needs to approve which suggestions get forwarded to R&D. Finance needs to greenlight budget for follow-up interviews. Operations needs to track which locations require immediate attention. Cue the email chains, spreadsheet tracking, and "Hey, did you see my request?" follow-ups.
This is where ApproveThis changes the game. By connecting QuickTapSurvey to ApproveThis via Zapier, you turn raw survey data into actionable decisions - without manual handoffs. We're talking about:
- Auto-creating approval tasks the moment surveys come in
- Routing decisions to the right people based on dollar amounts, departments, or custom rules
- Letting approvers say yes/no directly from email (no app logins required)
How This Combo Beats Manual Processes
Most teams using QuickTapSurvey either:
Option 1: Dump all responses into a spreadsheet and tag people in comments (then chase them down for approvals)
Option 2: Forward every important response as a separate email (and lose track of what's approved)
ApproveThis adds missing structure without slowing things down. When a QuickTapSurvey response meets your criteria (like high-priority feedback or purchase requests), Zapier automatically:
- Creates an approval request with all relevant survey data attached
- Routes it to the right approvers based on your rules
- Updates your other systems once approved (like creating tasks in your CRM or purchases in your ERP)
Bonus: Approvers only need email access - no extra licenses for QuickTapSurvey or other tools. Perfect for involving clients or execs who shouldn't have full system access.
Real-World Use Cases (No Fluff)
1. Event Marketing Teams: From Lead Capture to Approved Follow-Ups
Trade show teams using QuickTapSurvey for lead generation often waste days sorting through business cards and survey responses. With ApproveThis:
How it works: Every "Request Product Demo" survey response auto-triggers:
- Sales lead approval (Is this a qualified account?)
- Budget check (Does their requested demo require special equipment?)
- Territory assignment (Which AE owns this region?)
Outcome: A major HVAC supplier reduced their event-to-demo time from 14 days to 48 hours by auto-routing requests to regional sales directors based on survey responses.
2. Field Service Companies: Equipment Requests That Don't Get Lost
Construction and logistics teams use QuickTapSurvey for equipment checkouts at remote sites. But without approvals:
- Over $250K in unapproved tool rentals last year (actual client stat)
- 42% delayed projects due to inventory mismatches
The fix: Approval thresholds in ApproveThis:
- Requests under $1K auto-approved
- $1K-$5K needs manager approval
- $5K+ requires finance sign-off
All tied directly to QuickTapSurvey forms filled out onsite.
3. Customer Success: Turning Feedback Into Action Faster
Here's a dirty secret: Most NPS surveys collected via QuickTapSurvey never get acted on. ApproveThis fixes this by:
- Auto-creating improvement tickets for negative feedback
- Requiring CS manager approval before closing tickets
- Routing feature requests to product teams with priority scoring
A Midwest bank reduced customer churn by 18% by treating every "detractor" survey as an approval-required escalation.
Setup That Actually Takes 10 Minutes
Forget complicated integrations. If you can use a toaster, you can connect QuickTapSurvey to ApproveThis:
- Create a Zapier account (they have a free tier)
- Choose QuickTapSurvey as your trigger: "New Survey Response"
- Select ApproveThis as your action: "Create Approval Request"
- Map survey fields to approval requests: Drag-and-drop data like "Total Cost" or "Urgency Rating"
- Set approval rules: Use ApproveThis' conditional logic to auto-route based on survey data
Pro tip: Start with one approval workflow (like high-priority feedback) before scaling to complex rules.
Why This Isn't Just Another Integration
ApproveThis adds unique value to QuickTapSurvey workflows that generic tools miss:
Approval-Specific Features
Calculated Fields: Automatically flag surveys needing urgent approval. Example: If "Satisfaction Score" < 3 AND "Monthly Spend" > $5K = Escalate to VP.
Vacation Coverage: No more chasing unavailable approvers. If your CS director is OOO, requests auto-route to their deputy.
Multi-Level OKs: Require consensus from legal, finance, and engineering for compliance-heavy requests.
Visibility You Can Actually Use
ApproveThis' dashboard shows:
- How long surveys typically sit unapproved
- Bottleneck approvers (Looking at you, Bob from accounting)
- Approval rates by request type
No more guessing why field requests get delayed.
Who Benefits Most (Besides Your Sanity)
Operations Teams
Reduce equipment misuse with approval-required checkouts. Track which sites request what - with audit trails.

Approve promo offers captured at tradeshows before leads enter your CRM. No more giving 20% discounts to unqualified accounts.
Field Service Managers

Common Objections (And Why They're Wrong)
"We'll Lose Flexibility"
ApproveThis adapts to your process - not the other way around. Set rules as strict or loose as needed.
"Our Approvers Hate New Tools"
They can approve/reject via email. Zero training required.
"We Don't Have That Many Approvals"
If you have more than 20 monthly survey-based requests, you're already wasting time on manual follow-ups.
Getting Started (Without the BS)
Option 1: Sign up for ApproveThis and use our pre-built QuickTapSurvey template.
Option 2: Book a 15-minute demo to see real client workflows.
Either way, you'll be approving survey-driven requests faster than your next coffee break.
