ApproveThis manages your Elite Funnels Integration approvals.

Why This Integration Isn’t Just Another “Productivity Hack”

Let’s cut to the chase: most software integrations promise efficiency but deliver extra steps. This isn’t that. Connecting Zapier-powered Elite Funnels with ApproveThis turns your approval processes into silent workhorses. No more chasing down signatures in Slack threads or digging through email chains to find that one critical “APPROVED” message.

What Happens When Funnel Builders Meet Approval Pros

Elite Funnels helps teams create high-converting sales pipelines fast. ApproveThis makes sure the right people sign off on critical decisions faster. Together, they handle the entire lifecycle:

• Elite Funnels: Front-end interactions (orders, form fills, contact updates)
• ApproveThis: Back-end governance (who says yes/no, under what conditions)

The magic? Approvers don’t need Elite Funnels logins. External partners, clients, or execs can greenlight requests directly from their inbox while your team keeps working in the tools they already use.

Three Real-World Scenarios That Actually Matter

1. Killing Order Approval Delays

The Problem: Your e-commerce team uses Elite Funnels for checkout pages, but custom orders over $5K need manager approval. Result? Finance chases screenshots via email while customers wait.

The Fix: Zapier auto-triggers an ApproveThis request when Elite Funnels detects a high-value order. Approvers get an email with all details – price, customer history, special requests. One click approves/denies, updating both systems.

Who Cares: D2C brands scaling past 7 figures. Custom orders become profit centers, not operational nightmares.

2. No More “Who Approved This?!” Moments

The Problem: Marketing agencies using Elite Funnels for client landing pages often face scope creep. A “simple” form change request might require client AND legal review.

The Fix: New form submissions in Elite Funnels trigger parallel approvals in ApproveThis. Client stakeholders vote via email, legal gets sequenced review. All decisions audit-trailed.

Who Cares: Agencies with regulated clients (healthcare, finance) where compliance isn’t optional.

3. Automatic Contact List Hygiene

The Problem: Sales teams hate updating CRM entries manually after deal approvals. Contacts get stale, follow-ups misfire.

The Fix: When ApproveThis OKs a contract, Zapier pushes the updated contact info to Elite Funnels. Denied deals? Contacts get tagged “Rejected” instead of cluttering pipelines.

Who Cares: SaaS companies with high-volume lead generation but strict qualification rules.

Why Your Team Leads Will Stop Ignoring You

For Operations Managers

Approval thresholds mean you’re not bottlenecking every $500 request. Set rules like “Auto-approve orders under $2K if inventory exists” or “Escalate any discount over 15% to the VP.”

For Finance Teams

Calculated fields in ApproveThis automatically check margins, taxes, or payment terms before requests even reach humans. No more back-and-forth math errors.

For Remote/Hybrid Teams

Vacation delegation in ApproveThis prevents approvals from rotting in Out-of-Office inboxes. John in accounting skiing in Aspen? Requests auto-reroute to his backup without IT tickets.

Setting This Up Without Losing Your Mind

1. Zapier Account: If you’re not using it yet, sign up here (takes 2 minutes).
2. Connect Elite Funnels: Use Zapier’s Elite Funnels integration.
3. Add ApproveThis: Search for it in Zapier’s app directory.
4. Pick Your Trigger: “New Order” in Elite Funnels? “Form Submission”?
5. Map Critical Fields: Order value → Approval threshold, Customer email → Approver list.
6. Test With Live Data: Zapier’s test mode lets you fake-approve without consequences.

The Part Where We Tell You What To Do Next

If you’re using Elite Funnels for revenue-critical actions but handling approvals via email/Excel/Smoke signals:

→ Register for ApproveThis (Free 14-day trial, no CC required)
→ Book a Custom Demo (15 minutes, we’ll show your specific use case)

Wait, What About…?

“We Have Custom Approval Logic”

ApproveThis handles conditional workflows (if X, route to Y; if A > B, require Z signoff). Your edge cases are probably standard here.

“Our Approvers Are Externals/Contractors”

Licensing costs kill most approval tools. ApproveThis charges only for workflow managers – approvers use email for free. Clients, vendors, or freelancers don’t log into anything.

“We Need Real-Time Reporting”

ApproveThis dashboards show approval cycle times, bottleneck stages, and common rejection reasons. Sync this data to your BI tools via Zapier if needed.

The Quiet Benefit Nobody Talks About

This integration isn’t about speed – though you’ll get that. It’s about eliminating the “Hey, did you see my approval request?” follow-ups that drain 23% of your team’s week (yes, that’s an actual stat from our customers).

Approvals become background processes. Your team spends brainpower on strategy, not chasing down signatures. Elite Funnels keeps generating leads. ApproveThis handles the bureaucratic sludge. You look like the person who finally fixed that thing everyone hated.
