When Approval Meets Action
Let’s cut to the chase: approvals suck. They’re the speed bumps of business progress. But here’s the thing - they don’t have to. Not when you combine ApproveThis’ razor-sharp approval automation with Siteglide’s website-building muscle. We’re talking about turning "waiting for approval" from a productivity killer into an automated handoff that actually moves shit forward.
Siteglide agencies and development teams already know how to build digital experiences that convert. ApproveThis crews eliminate approval bottlenecks. Put them together through Zapier, and you get workflows where website updates get approved before your coffee gets cold, client content goes live without endless email threads, and purchase orders move faster than your office snack stash disappears.
The Nuts and Bolts of Better Decisions
Here’s why this integration isn’t just another tech stack checkbox:
For Siteglide Users
Your CMS shouldn’t be where requests go to die. Connect it to ApproveThis and suddenly:
- Client content approvals happen in their inbox (no logins required)
- Website change requests auto-route to the right devs
- eCommerce order approvals trigger fulfillment automatically
For ApproveThis Teams
Your approval workflows just got real-world superpowers:
- Approved blog drafts? They’re already publishing in Siteglide
- Denied purchase requests? Automatically logged as resolved cases
- Threshold-based approvals cutting through red tape like it’s butter
The kicker? Approvers only need ApproveThis access - no extra Siteglide licenses. Perfect for client reviews or cross-departmental work where you don’t want to manage 50+ user accounts.
Real Workflows for Actual Humans
Client Content Approval That Doesn’t Suck
Marketing agencies: remember that time your client took 11 days to approve a landing page? Yeah, let’s fix that.
When a Siteglide WebApp item gets created (say, a new blog post draft), Zapier triggers an ApproveThis request. Your client gets an email - they click approve/reject without logging into anything. Approved? It auto-publishes. Denied? Comments flow back into Siteglide as a case. You look responsive, clients feel heard, nobody dies of old age waiting.
eCommerce Orders That Move at Internet Speed
Online retailers: high-ticket items need eyeballs before shipping. But manually flagging orders for review? That’s 2010’s problem.
Set ApproveThis thresholds - anything over $5k automatically routes to your finance lead. Siteglide’s new CRM orders trigger approval requests through Zapier. Approved? Order processes immediately. Denied? Customer gets a personalized hold email via Siteglide. Your fraud team stops playing whack-a-mole with spreadsheets.
Website Changes Without the Meeting Hell
Dev teams: How many Slack pings does it take to approve a homepage update? Let’s find out... just kidding, nobody has time for that.
Content editors submit Siteglide module items. ApproveThis routes to marketing, legal, and C-suite sequentially. Approved at all levels? Module publishes automatically. Someone’s OOO? Vacation delegation shifts approvals to their backup. Change logs stay intact, compliance stays happy, your sanity stays preserved.
Setting Up Without Losing Your Mind
Here’s the beauty part - this isn’t some months-long IT project. We’re talking 15 minutes if you’ve used Zapier before. Here’s the cheat sheet:
1. Log into Zapier (or make an account - it’s free to start)
2. Choose your trigger:
- Siteglide: New WebApp Item, CRM Order, etc.
- ApproveThis: Completed approval
3. Pick the matching action on the other app
4. Map fields (Pro tip: Use ApproveThis’ calculated fields for conditional logic)
5. Test with real data (Both apps have sandbox modes)
Biggest time-saver? Set up approval groups and thresholds in ApproveThis first. That way when Zaps trigger, requests already know who needs to decide what.
Who Gets the Biggest Win?
Marketing Teams
Client approvals are the silent killer of campaign timelines. Connect Siteglide to ApproveThis and watch:
- Drafts get reviewed in 48 hours instead of 2 weeks
- Compliance checks happen pre-publish, not post-regret
- Multi-location franchises can manage local/global approvals
Operations Managers
You’re the air traffic controller nobody thanks. Let’s change that:
- Procurement requests auto-route based on amount/vendor
- IT change approvals get documented in Siteglide automatically
- Cross-department projects stop falling through cracks
Web Development Agencies
Client change requests are your bread and butter - until they’re not:
- Scope creep protection via formal approval chains
- Auto-publish approved content without manual deployment
- Denied requests generate support tickets in Siteglide
Why This Isn’t Just Another Integration
Most app connections just shuffle data. This one actually closes loops. When you combine ApproveThis’ decision-making rigor with Siteglide’s action-oriented platform, you create workflows where every approval directly triggers real business outcomes.
Approved budget requests become live donation forms. Signed contracts auto-populate client portals. Inventory purchases trigger website stock updates. It’s not about moving information - it’s about making decisions actually matter in your digital ecosystem.
And because ApproveThis lives in email inboxes while Siteglide handles the heavy lifting, you get enterprise-grade control without enterprise-level complexity. Your approvers don’t need to learn new systems - just click a button in their Gmail. Your execs see real-time dashboards instead of asking for status updates. Everyone wins except the bottlenecks.
Bottom Line: Approval Isn’t the End
In most companies, getting approval is the finish line. With ApproveThis and Siteglide connected? It’s the starting block. Every "yes" immediately becomes action in your Siteglide sites and portals. Every "no" automatically routes back for revision. No lost requests, no confused clients, no wondering if that critical update ever got reviewed.
This isn’t about replacing human judgment - it’s about eliminating the logistical nightmares around it. Your team stays focused on the work that matters, your processes actually get followed, and your digital presence stays sharp without constant manual oversight.
Ready to stop babysitting approvals? Get started with ApproveThis, connect your Siteglide account through Zapier, and start treating approvals like the launchpad they should be. Or if you want to see it live first, book a demo - we’ll show you how to shave 8 hours off your approval cycles in the first week.
