ApproveThis manages your Salesroom approvals.

Integration Categories:

Let's get real: your sales team is out there crushing quotas while your approval processes are stuck in 1998. Deal discounts waiting on finance. Contract changes lost in legal's inbox. Event budgets held hostage by spreadsheet hell. We've seen it all.

Here's where it gets interesting. Connect ApproveThis (your new approval sheriff) with Salesroom (the AI sales call wizard) through Zapier, and suddenly those bottlenecked approvals start moving at the speed of sales.

Why This Combo Doesn't Suck

Salesroom tells you what's happening in deals (live call analytics, CRM updates, the good stuff). ApproveThis handles the "make it official" part without requiring your sales ops team to play administrative babysitter. Together, they:

  • Kill approval amnesia: Every discount request tied directly to the sales call where it happened
  • Stop legal department black holes: Contract change requests that actually show up with context
  • Make finance team less… financey: Budget approvals that auto-escalate if they stall

Real Shit Your Sales Team Will Actually Use

Use Case 1: Discount Authority That Doesn't Require a Ouija Board

Scenario: Your AE offers a 15% discount during a Salesroom-tracked call. Normally, this triggers a 3-day email chain involving 4 people.

Integration Fix: Salesroom detects "discount" mentions → Zapier fires approval to ApproveThis with call recording + CRM data. Deal desk approves/denies in 2 clicks via email. Approval threshold rules auto-approve standard discounts if margins stay above X%.

Who cares: Mid-market SaaS companies where AEs have flexible pricing but finance wants guardrails. Makes discount tracking audit-proof without micromanagement.

Use Case 2: Contract Changes That Don't Die in Legal Limbo

Scenario: Client requests custom SLA terms during negotiation. AE sends vague email to legal. Follows up 8 times. Deal stalls.

Integration Fix: Salesroom flags "SLA" discussion → ApproveThis pings legal with specific clause + context from call transcript. Legal approves with redlines → Updates auto-sync to CPQ tool. Vacation delegation covers when counsel is OOO.

Who cares: Enterprise tech companies with complex contracts. Legal stays in loop without becoming a bottleneck. Approvers don't need Salesroom logins – huge when working with external counsel.

Use Case 3: Event Budgets That Get Approved Before the Event Happens

Scenario: Sales promises a $50K hosted dinner during a client call. Later, marketing says budget's gone. Awkward.

Integration Fix: Salesroom detects budget commitment → Triggers approval workflow with mapped thresholds. If ≥$25K, auto-escalate to CFO. If approved, budget tracker updates. If denied, AE gets alert before making empty promises.

Who cares: Companies scaling field events. Stops overspending without requiring AEs to understand budget minutiae.

Setup That Won't Make You Want to Swear Off Tech Forever

1. Connect the dots: Zapier links Salesroom meeting triggers to ApproveThis requests
2. Map the important stuff: Attach call transcripts, CRM data, deal terms to approval requests
3. Set your rules: Approval thresholds ($$ amounts), escalation paths, delegation rules
4. Test drive: Have Sales trigger a mock request → Watch ApproveThis route it properly

Pro tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to auto-flag requests that need extra scrutiny. Example: If discount % + deal size exceeds quarterly limits, route to CRO automatically.

Why Your Teams Won't Hate This

Sales Ops:

Finally get attribution for enabling deals vs. just policing policy. Custom workflows mean they can enforce compliance without being the "bad guys".

AEs:

Approvals happen in their workflow (email, Slack) without logging into another tool. Real-time tracking means less pestering ops about status.

Finance/Legal:

Context-rich requests = faster decisions. Escalation paths mean urgent deals don't get stuck. Plus, all approvals are audit-ready automatically.

The Nerd Stuff You Actually Need to Know

Approver licensing: External approvers (clients, partners, legal) don't need Salesroom seats – huge for confidential deals.
Security: ApproveThis keeps permissions tight. Sales can't see legal's comments unless you let them.
Analytics: See which deal terms get rejected most → refine playbooks. Or find out finance approves 80% of requests – maybe loosen thresholds?

Cool Features You'll Use More Than You Think

Auto-approvals: Let low-risk requests sail through. Save human eyes for big deals.
Consensus vs. sequential: Need 3/5 VPs to approve? Or strict hierarchy? Set it once.
Mobile rejections: Approvers can nix bad deals from their phone without 20 questions.

Bottom Line: This Isn't Another "Efficiency" Pipe Dream

Approval delays aren't just annoying – they cost deals. When your competitor can approve custom terms in 2 hours vs. your 2 days, guess who wins? This integration fixes the crap that actually slows sales down:

  • Approvals disconnected from deal context
  • Status updates that require detective work
  • One approver's vacation killing a $250K deal
