ApproveThis manages your GrowthZone AMS Integration approvals.

Integration Category: Crm
Let's cut to the chase: If you're using GrowthZone AMS to manage memberships and events, you're already dealing with enough bureaucracy. The last thing you need is another layer of red tape slowing down decisions. That's where ApproveThis comes in - not to add more process, but to make your existing workflows actually work.
Why This Combo Doesn't Suck
GrowthZone keeps your membership ship afloat. ApproveThis stops it from sinking in approval purgatory. Together, they handle the dirty work of:
- Chasing down sign-offs for event budgets
- Tripping over membership tier upgrades
- Losing track of who approved what (and when)
Here's the kicker: Approvers don't need a GrowthZone license. That means your board members, external partners, or that CFO who still uses AOL email can approve requests without logging into another system.
Real Sh*t Your Team Can Automate Today
1. Event Registration That Doesn't Require 17 Emails
Scenario: Your chamber of commerce gets 50 new gala registrants overnight. Instead of manually forwarding each one for approval:
The Fix: Zapier triggers an ApproveThis workflow whenever GrowthZone logs a new registrant. Your events team gets an email they can approve/reject in two clicks. Approved? Registrant gets confirmation. Denied? Automatic follow-up. No spreadsheets. No "Did you see my email?"
2. Membership Upgrades That Don't Take a Congressional Term
Scenario: A corporate member wants platinum status. Normally this requires:
1. Sales rep submits form
2. Finance verrates payment history
3. Membership coordinator checks compliance
4. Committee chair gives final nod
The Fix: GrowthZone membership updates trigger parallel approvals in ApproveThis. Finance gets dollar amounts via calculated fields. Legal sees compliance flags. Everyone approves on their own time. If someone's OOO, delegation rules keep it moving. Platinum status achieved before your sales rep finishes their latte.
Setup That Won't Make You Want to Swear
Total time: 12 minutes (we timed it)
1. Create a Zapier account (free tier works)
2. Connect GrowthZone AMS
3. Choose your trigger (New Event Registrant, Membership Update, etc.)
4. Connect ApproveThis
5. Map fields once
6. Test with live data
Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis' approval thresholds to auto-approve routine requests under $500. Save human brainpower for exceptions.
Department-Specific Wins
Membership Teams
Stop playing telephone between finance and sales. Set conditional rules:
- Renewals under $10K? Auto-approve with CFO summary
- New member with past due balance? Flag for collections first
- Lifetime achievement award? Route to board via sequential approvals
Event Planners
Venue needs deposit approval yesterday?
1. GrowthZone event created
2. ApproveThis pings budget owner
3. Approved? Contract sent via Docusign
4. Denied? Alternate venues suggested
Finance Nerds
Real-time tracking means no more:
- "Who approved this vendor?"
- "Why did we pay $200 for confetti cannons?"
- "The event was last week - where's the invoice?"
Why This Isn't Just Another Integration
ApproveThis adds teeth to GrowthZone's workflow without the complexity:
- Email approvals = less login fatigue
- Calculated fields prevent "Oops, wrong budget" errors
- Vacation coverage stops approvals from rotting in inboxes
- Audit trails that even your grumpiest auditor will like
Example: A 300-member trade association cut approval delays by 83% in 6 weeks. Their secret? They stopped treating approvals like a scavenger hunt.
No-BS Next Steps
1. Grab an ApproveThis trial
2. Pick one process that's currently a pain point
3. Build the Zap in 15 minutes
4. Watch your team actually hit deadlines
