End-to-End Sales Pipeline Automation System

The Problem

A consulting firm had a fully manual sales process — new organizations entered Pipedrive but sat untouched. Lead assignment was done by hand, reps had no automated follow-up system, and management had zero visibility into capacity, outreach status, or pipeline health. The team was losing leads to slow response times and inconsistent follow-up.

What We Built

  • Designed and built a complete sales automation operating system: Intake Controller (scheduled capacity-based lead selection), Assignment Engine (auto-routes leads to reps based on availability/territory), and Enrichment Pipeline (verifies and enriches contact data before assignment)
  • Created a multi-stage lifecycle tracking system — from intake through assignment, outreach, tour booking, and close — with automated status propagation between org and deal entities, call attempt tracking, and dead-letter queues for failed assignments
  • Built a routing database with rep capacity management, an unassigned queue with Slack alerting for ops review, and configurable outreach sequences with automatic stage progression based on call outcomes

AI Call Scoring & Sales Coaching Automation

The Problem

Sales managers had no scalable way to evaluate call quality across their team. Reps completed calls but there was no consistent feedback loop — managers could only listen to a handful of recordings per week, coaching was inconsistent, and reps had no immediate visibility into how they performed against the company's sales SOP.

What We Built

  • Built an automation triggered by call completion that sends the full call recording plus an AI-generated summary (key points discussed, client sentiment, action items) to a dedicated per-client Slack channel — giving the entire team instant context on every conversation
  • Created a parallel flow to an admin channel that delivers the same summary plus an automated SOP scorecard — AI evaluates the call against each SOP checkpoint (intro, discovery questions, objection handling, next steps, close attempt) and assigns a score per point
  • Scores and action items are surfaced to both the sales rep (for self-coaching) and management (for team-wide performance visibility), with weekly roll-up reports showing trends per rep

Zero-Touch Employee Onboarding Automation

The Problem

Onboarding a new sales rep involved 15+ manual steps spread across multiple tools — Slack invites, channel assignments, tool access provisioning, CRM setup, automation configuration updates, calendar links, and SOP distribution. Each new hire took a manager 2-3 hours to onboard, steps were frequently missed, and new reps often started their first day without access to the tools they needed.

What We Built

  • Built a trigger-based onboarding flow that fires when a new employee record is created — automatically sends Slack workspace invite, adds them to role-specific channels (team, deals, announcements, training), and sets channel notification preferences
  • Automated tool provisioning: creates their Pipedrive user, assigns the correct pipeline visibility and deal permissions, generates their personal meeting booking link, and updates all existing automations to include the new rep in rotation/assignment logic
  • Created a welcome sequence that delivers SOPs, training materials, and onboarding checklists on a timed drip — day 1, day 3, day 7 — with completion tracking and manager notifications on progress

Custom Sales Dashboard with Pipedrive Integration

The Problem

The client's sales leadership needed real-time visibility into pipeline health, rep performance, and deal velocity — but Pipedrive's built-in reporting didn't match how they thought about their data. They wanted custom views, filterable by team/region/time period, with metrics that mapped to their specific sales process stages. Off-the-shelf BI tools were either too complex to configure or couldn't pull Pipedrive data in real time.

What We Built

  • Built a custom web dashboard (React + TailwindCSS) that syncs with Pipedrive in real time via API and webhooks — every deal update, stage change, and activity is reflected within seconds
  • Designed fully customizable views: pipeline by stage with conversion rates, rep leaderboard with activity metrics, deal velocity tracking (average time per stage), revenue forecasting by weighted pipeline, and stale deal alerts
  • Implemented role-based access — reps see their own metrics, managers see team-wide data, leadership gets the full company roll-up with drill-down capability into any rep or deal

Email Engagement-Driven Sales Pipeline Automation

The Problem

The sales team had no visibility into which prospects were engaging with their emails. Reps were following up blindly, wasting time on cold leads while hot prospects went stale. Deal stage updates were manual and often forgotten.

What We Built

  • Built a webhook listener that captures all Pipedrive email tracking events — opens, clicks, and replies — in real time
  • Created an engagement scoring engine that tracks patterns per deal/contact and identifies 'hot leads' based on configurable thresholds (3+ opens, click-throughs, fast replies)
  • Automated pipeline stage progression based on engagement signals — hot leads auto-advance and trigger Slack notifications to reps for immediate follow-up

SimilarWeb-Powered Prospect Scoring & Sales Intelligence

The Problem

The agency's BDR team was manually researching potential clients' website traffic using SimilarWeb, then scoring them by hand based on traffic volume, growth trends, and traffic sources. This took 3+ hours per day and limited outreach to companies they already knew about.

What We Built

  • Built a scheduled pipeline that pulls website traffic data, growth rates, traffic sources, and competitor info from SimilarWeb API every 6 hours
  • Created a configurable lead scoring engine — traffic thresholds, growth velocity, industry fit — that automatically ranks and qualifies prospects
  • Automated CRM sync that creates/updates deals in Pipedrive with enriched data fields, custom scores, and recommended next steps for reps

AI-Powered LinkedIn Outreach at Scale

The Problem

The client needed to scale personalized LinkedIn outreach without sacrificing message quality. Manual outreach was limited to 15–20 personalized messages per day per rep. Hiring more reps wasn't economical, and generic templates killed reply rates.

What We Built

  • Built a headless browser bot (ChromeDP/Go) that handles LinkedIn login, profile visits, connection requests, and messaging via REST API
  • Created an AI Content Server (Node.js) that generates personalized outreach messages using GPT-4 / Claude based on each prospect's profile, role, company, and recent activity
  • Orchestrated the full campaign with n8n — managing sequences, timing, follow-ups, daily limits, and Pipedrive integration for lead tracking

Automated Lead Generation & CRM Pipeline

The Problem

The client's sales team was spending 15+ hours per week manually researching mobile app publishers on SensorTower, finding contact information via multiple tools, and manually entering leads into Pipedrive CRM. This limited them to ~30 qualified leads per week with frequent data entry errors.

What We Built

  • Built a Market Scanner that monitors SensorTower app categories every 6 hours, applying scoring criteria (download velocity >10K/month, revenue growth >20% MoM)
  • Created a Contact Enrichment service using Hunter.io to resolve publishers to domains and find verified decision-maker emails
  • Automated Pipedrive pipeline creation with enriched data mapped to custom fields, auto-assignment to sales reps, and 12-hour metric refreshes
