When Approval Meets Action
Modern businesses face a critical challenge: moving fast without breaking things. For teams using AvidMobile's SMS marketing tools, this means launching campaigns quickly while maintaining control over compliance, budgets, and brand voice. ApproveThis brings structure to the chaos by adding guardrails to your mobile engagement strategy through Zapier-powered automation.
Why This Integration Matters
AvidMobile excels at driving customer interactions through SMS campaigns, loyalty programs, and coupon management. ApproveThis adds a layer of governance that's essential for regulated industries, multi-location businesses, and teams sharing client accounts. Together through Zapier, they create closed-loop processes where every customer touchpoint gets proper oversight without slowing down execution.
Real-World Workflows for Different Teams
1. Membership Management with Built-In Compliance
Loyalty programs live or die by data accuracy. When a new member joins through AvidMobile, ApproveThis can automatically:
- Route profile verification to regional managers
- Cross-check against CRM data
Example: A cannabis dispensary chain uses this integration to ensure new loyalty members meet age verification requirements across three states with different compliance rules. Approvers receive email notifications with embedded validation tools - no need to log into AvidMobile.
2. Coupon Fraud Prevention
High-value promotions need oversight. Configure ApproveThis to automatically flag redemptions exceeding $500 or unusual geographic patterns. The system can:
- Require manager approval before issuing store credit
- Attach customer transaction history to approval requests
Example: An auto dealership group prevented $28K in fraudulent service coupon redemptions last quarter by adding secondary approval for any coupon used outside the customer's home region.
3. Campaign Launch Governance
Marketing teams often juggle multiple SMS campaigns. Connect AvidMobile's campaign drafts to ApproveThis workflows that:
- Require legal review for specific keywords
- Verify budget allocations against department limits
Example: A healthcare provider's marketing team reduced compliance incidents by 62% after implementing mandatory approvals for any SMS containing words like "free," "guaranteed," or "results."
The Hidden Advantage: External Collaboration
ApproveThis solves a critical pain point for AvidMobile users working with external partners. Agency teams can submit SMS campaign drafts for client approval without requiring access to the AvidMobile platform. Clients review and comment directly via email - no software licenses needed. All feedback and approvals sync back to AvidMobile automatically through Zapier.
Implementation Made Simple
Setting up the integration takes under 20 minutes:
- Create a Zapier account (if needed)
- Choose your trigger event from AvidMobile (new member, coupon redemption, etc.)
- Map data fields to ApproveThis' request template
- Set approval rules and escalation paths
Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to auto-approve routine requests while flagging exceptions. For example, instantly approve coupon redemptions under $50 but require manager sign-off on higher amounts.
Department-Specific Benefits
Marketing Teams
Accelerate campaign launches while maintaining brand consistency. The legal team receives automatically routed SMS drafts containing regulated terms, with built-in version control. Approved messages deploy to AvidMobile instantly - no more chasing stakeholders via Slack.
Operations Managers
Maintain audit trails for compliance reporting. Every membership approval or coupon exception leaves a timestamped record in ApproveThis, automatically synced with AvidMobile's activity logs. During audits, demonstrate compliance in half the time.
Customer Service Leaders
Resolve disputes faster. When a customer claims an uncredited loyalty point redemption, agents pull up the original approval chain in ApproveThis showing who authorized the adjustment and when. No more digging through email threads.
Beyond Basic Automation
While Zapier handles the data transfer, ApproveThis adds intelligent workflow layers that AvidMobile alone can't provide:
- Conditional Escalation: Automatically bump stalled approvals to next-level managers after 24 hours
- Contextual Routing: Send coupon approvals to regional directors based on store location data
- Mobile-First Design: Approvers can review rich media attachments (like coupon artwork) directly from their phone
Getting Started
To implement these workflows:
- Sign up for ApproveThis (14-day trial available)
- Connect to AvidMobile via Zapier
- Clone pre-built templates or create custom workflows
For complex implementations, schedule a live demo to see how healthcare providers and franchise businesses are using these integrations to reduce risk while scaling operations.
The Bottom Line
AvidMobile gives you the tools to engage customers at scale. ApproveThis provides the oversight needed to do it responsibly. Together through Zapier, they create an engine for growth that keeps compliance teams happy and customers coming back.
