Why Combine ApproveThis with WeConnect.Chat?
Modern businesses face two critical challenges: managing high-quality customer interactions and maintaining control over decision-making. WeConnect.Chat excels at connecting teams with clients through chatbots, live messaging, and scheduled meetings. ApproveThis brings structure to approvals, ensuring decisions happen quickly without compromising oversight. Together, they create a seamless bridge between customer engagement and internal governance.
Key Features Working in Tandem
WeConnect.Chat captures critical moments in customer conversations - new contacts inquiring about services or responses needing quality checks. ApproveThis adds accountability at these exact moments through:
- Automatic request creation from WeConnect.Chat triggers
- Multi-step approvals with conditional logic
- Email-based decisions requiring no additional software
This combination eliminates manual handoffs between sales/marketing teams and approvers. A marketing agency could automatically route new demo requests from WeConnect.Chat to department heads for capacity review. A SaaS company might require legal team sign-off on specific client responses before sending.
Real-World Use Cases
1. High-Value Lead Qualification
When WeConnect.Chat identifies a new enterprise contact through its chatbot, ApproveThis can:
- Route the lead to sales directors based on deal size thresholds
- Require budget verification from finance teams
- Auto-approve repeat clients meeting predefined criteria
Example: A cybersecurity firm uses calculated fields to escalate any contact requesting pricing above $50K/month to C-level approvers, cutting response time by 72 hours compared to manual processes.
2. Compliance-Critical Responses
Customer service teams using WeConnect.Chat's live chat can:
- Flag responses containing legal/regulatory terms
- Require manager approval before sending
- Maintain audit trails for compliance reporting
A pharmaceutical company reduced compliance violations by 89% by routing all drug trial-related chat responses through ApproveThis' sequential approval chains.
Implementation Made Simple
Setting up the integration requires three steps in Zapier:
- Choose your WeConnect.Chat trigger (New Contact or New Response)
- Map key data fields to ApproveThis request templates
- Configure approval rules and escalation paths
Approvers only need email access - no additional WeConnect.Chat licenses required. This makes the solution ideal for:
- External legal counsel reviewing contracts
- Client stakeholders in joint ventures
- Field teams needing mobile approvals
Team-Specific Benefits
Marketing Teams
Automatically approve campaign responses meeting brand guidelines while flagging creative proposals needing legal review. Vacation delegation ensures summer campaign launches aren't delayed by PTO schedules.
Sales Organizations
Route discount requests from WeConnect.Chat meetings through territory-based approval chains. Real-time dashboards show stuck deals needing executive intervention.
Customer Success
Escalate feature requests captured in chatbots to product teams using calculated ROI fields. Approval groups prevent conflicting priorities between support and engineering.
Beyond Basic Automation
While Zapier handles the initial connection, ApproveThis adds intelligent processing through:
- Dynamic thresholds: Auto-approve small expenses but require CFO sign-off above $10K
- Conditional routing: Send HR-related chat transcripts to different approvers than sales inquiries
- Time-based escalation: Bypass unavailable managers after 24-hour response windows
