What this does
Actions are what your automation rules do when they fire. You can chain multiple actions together in a single rule.
Available actions
- Send Email — send a template email to the contact
- Create Deal — automatically create a deal for the contact
- Update Contact — change a field on the contact (e.g. set type to Customer)
- Assign Owner — assign the contact or deal to a team member
- Add to Sequence — enrol the contact in an email sequence
- Create Task — create a reminder task for a team member
- Send Webhook — send data to an external URL (Zapier, Make, etc.)
- Delay — wait a set period before running the next action
- Send Notification — notify a team member via in-app notification
Step by step
- Inside a workflow rule, click + Add Action
- Select the action type
- Configure the action:
- For emails, choose a template
- For assignments, select a team member or use round-robin
- For delays, set hours or days
- Add more actions if needed — they run in sequence
- Click Save
Tips
- Use delays between actions for natural-feeling follow-ups
- Round-robin assignment distributes leads evenly across your team
- Webhook actions let you connect to any external tool
