The Approval Bottleneck Every Sales Team Hates
Here's the reality: your sales team lives in SalesBlink, automating outreach sequences and tracking every click/reply like hawks. Meanwhile, legal/compliance/finance teams live in spreadsheets and email threads, creating approval bottlenecks that kill momentum. This disconnect costs deals.
ApproveThis plugs directly into SalesBlink via Zapier to automate approval routing exactly where your team works. No more switching tabs to chase sign-offs. No more deals rotting in inboxes. Just sales motions moving at the speed your pipeline demands.
Why This Combo Works (Beyond Basic Automation)
Most approval tools just route requests. ApproveThis adds decision-making logic that adapts to your SalesBlink workflow:
- Approval Thresholds: Auto-approve small discount requests (under 10%) but escalate bigger deals to execs
- Calculated Fields: Instantly flag non-compliant offers using deal size + territory rules
- Delegation: Auto-reassign approvals when your CRO is at Dreamforce
Meanwhile, SalesBlink handles the heavy lifting of multi-channel outreach and lead tracking. Together, they create a closed-loop system: Outreach triggers approvals → approvals trigger follow-ups → follow-ups close deals.
Use Case: Instant Lead Qualification (Without The Meeting Bloat)
The Problem: Marketing screams "hot lead!" because someone clicked a pricing page link. Sales groans because 80% are tire-kickers. Everyone wastes time in handoff meetings.
The Fix: When SalesBlink detects a link click, ApproveThis automatically:
- Checks lead score against CRM data
- Routes high-value leads to sales managers for immediate call approval
- Sends automated "we're researching options" emails to low-priority leads
Real-World Impact: A SaaS company reduced pre-call meetings by 70% while increasing qualified demos by 25%.
Use Case: Compliance Checks That Don't Kill Your Sales Velocity
The Problem: Your rep offers a custom discount to close a deal. Legal takes 3 days to approve. Lead goes cold.
The Fix: SalesBlink reply data triggers ApproveThis to:
- Auto-flag deals needing legal review based on discount % or contract terms
- Route directly to correct approver via Slack/Email
- Update SalesBlink sequences with "legal review pending" status
Bonus: Approvers don't need SalesBlink access. Send external partners (like channel managers) a secure link to review terms without exposing your CRM.
Who Gets Time Back (Besides Your Sales Ops Team)
Sales Leaders: See approval bottlenecks in real dashboards (not Slack pings). Escalate stuck deals before quarter-end.
Legal Teams: Stop being the "slow no" department. Set clear rules upfront, auto-approve 60% of requests.
Finance: Enforce discount guardrails without manual audits. Get auto-alerts for exceptions over $50K.
CSMs: Trigger contract renewal approvals 90 days early, with auto-reminders at 60/30/7 days.
Setting This Up In 15 Minutes (Seriously)
1. Create a Zap with SalesBlink as trigger (new click/reply)
2. Map key data points to ApproveThis (deal size, lead score, etc.)
3. Set approval rules in ApproveThis (thresholds, escalations)
4. Connect approved deals back to SalesBlink sequences
Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to auto-flag leads from blocked competitors or non-compliant regions.
"But Can't We Just Use Email Approvals?"
Sure. If you enjoy:
• Approvers missing emails buried in threads
• Zero audit trails for compliance
• Sales reps manually updating 12 spreadsheets
ApproveThis adds accountability without complexity. Every decision is logged with timestamps/reasons. Custom reports show which approvers delay deals. Conditional rules prevent rookie reps from overpromising.
Stop Letting Approvals Dictate Your Sales Rhythm
ApproveThis + SalesBlink via Zapier isn't about automation. It's about eliminating the bureaucratic drag that makes sales teams hate their own processes.
