What This Workflow Does

This automation transforms how your sales team handles leads from GoHighLevel by automatically identifying and prioritizing high-value opportunities. The workflow runs daily to score all contacts, flag top prospects, and immediately notify your team through multiple channels.

By eliminating manual lead review and prioritization, your sales reps gain back hours each week while ensuring no valuable lead slips through the cracks. The system creates a complete audit trail in Google Sheets and schedules timely follow-ups in Google Calendar automatically.

How It Works

1. Daily Lead Retrieval

The workflow triggers each morning to fetch all contacts from GoHighLevel CRM through its API, including custom field data used for scoring.

2. Automated Scoring

Each lead is evaluated against your predefined criteria (deal size, engagement level, etc.) and assigned a numerical score between 0-100.

3. High-Value Filtering

Contacts scoring above your threshold (default: 80) are flagged for immediate attention while others are logged for future nurturing.

4. Multi-Channel Alerts

Priority leads trigger Slack notifications to assigned reps with all relevant details and a direct link to the CRM record.

5. Data Logging

All lead data and scores are recorded in Google Sheets for performance tracking and analytics.

6. Follow-Up Scheduling

The system creates calendar events for each high-value lead with a 1-hour buffer from detection time to ensure prompt response.

  • Sales teams using GoHighLevel who want to prioritize inbound leads
