Automate Your Sales
Pipeline with Close CRM
We build production-grade Close CRM automations using Make.com, Zapier, n8n, and the Close API — automatically creating leads, opportunities, and tasks from Calendly bookings, web forms, and custom activities, and connecting Close to Slack, Airtable, WhatsApp, and 1,000+ platforms so your sales team closes more deals with less admin.
3 Ways We Automate Close CRM
We choose the right integration method based on your sales process complexity, connected tools, and the business logic that needs to be applied when leads, opportunities, and custom activities change state.
Close CRM Native Automations
Close CRM has a built-in workflow and pipeline builder for smaller-scale, contained automations — lead status change sequences, automatic task assignment, email follow-up triggers, and internal notifications. We configure these native automations to handle routine in-CRM actions so your sales reps focus on conversations rather than administrative follow-up within the platform.
Make.com, Zapier & n8n
Make.com's native Close CRM module covers all key triggers — new lead, status change, smart view updates — and all key actions across leads, contacts, opportunities, tasks, and custom activities, connecting Close to Calendly, Slack, Airtable, WhatsApp, and any platform in your stack. Zapier extends this for teams already managing tools through Zapier. For sales teams needing self-hosted, privacy-first automation with no per-operation costs, n8n connects to Close via the REST API with unlimited executions.
Close CRM REST API
Close CRM's well-documented REST API covers leads, contacts, opportunities, tasks, activities, smart views, and custom fields. We use it directly inside Make.com for advanced filtering and API call operations — including fetching leads with complex query parameters, updating multiple custom fields simultaneously, or tracking custom activity events and pushing KPI data into Airtable for structured reporting and analysis.

What We Build With Close CRM
Real sales automation workflows we have delivered for B2B sales teams, SaaS companies, and agencies using Close CRM as their primary sales platform.
Calendly Booking → Close Lead + Task Creation
When a prospect books a call via Calendly, our Make.com scenario watches the new event and automatically creates a lead in Close CRM with all booking details mapped to the correct fields, plus a task assigned to the rep to prepare for the call. The rep receives a Slack notification so they are briefed before the meeting without checking Calendly or Close separately.
Close Lead Status Change → Slack Notification
We build Make.com scenarios that watch for lead status changes in Close CRM and instantly send a formatted Slack notification to the relevant channel — including the lead name, company, new status, assigned rep, and deal value. Sales managers get real-time visibility into pipeline movement without logging into Close CRM to check manually throughout the day.
Custom Activity → Opportunity + Task + WhatsApp
Close CRM's custom activity system is extremely powerful. We build automation flows where a specific custom activity event — such as a demo completed, a proposal sent, or a trial started — triggers a Make.com scenario that creates a new opportunity at the correct pipeline stage, updates an existing task, creates a follow-up task, and sends a personalised WhatsApp message to the prospect automatically.
Close CRM KPI Data → Airtable Reporting
We build Make.com scenarios using the Close CRM API to query leads with custom filter parameters — filtering by status, rep, date range, or custom fields — and push the resulting KPI data into Airtable. Airtable's flexible views and dashboard capabilities then serve as a live sales reporting layer on top of Close CRM data, updated automatically on a daily or real-time schedule.
Form / Prospecting Tool → Close CRM Lead
We connect web forms, lead generation platforms, and prospecting tools to Close CRM — automatically creating or updating leads the moment a new prospect is identified. We apply deduplication logic to search for existing leads before creating new ones, set the correct pipeline stage, assign the right rep based on routing rules, and send the rep an immediate notification to follow up while the lead is warm.
Multi-Condition Path Routing Workflows
We build large-scale Close CRM automation workflows with multiple conditional branches — routing leads based on company size, industry, deal value, rep assignment, or custom field values. Different paths trigger different actions: high-value leads get immediate Slack alerts and calendar invites, mid-tier leads get email sequences, and low-value leads get tagged and routed to a nurture pipeline automatically.
Close CRM Integrations We Build
From booking tools and communication platforms to reporting databases and messaging apps — we connect Close CRM with every tool your sales team depends on.
