How This Automation Works
New Lead Submission → Lead Captured and Team Notified
Lead Submission Detected
The system monitors all lead sources including website forms, social media messaging platforms, email inboxes, and integrated phone systems. When a potential customer submits an inquiry through any channel, the trigger activates immediately and captures the raw submission data.
Data Extraction and Validation
Contact information and service details are automatically extracted from the submission. The system validates phone numbers, email addresses, and service addresses, then formats all data consistently. Service type, urgency indicators, and customer preferences are identified and categorized for proper routing.
Lead Enrichment and Scoring
The system enriches the lead profile by identifying the property type, checking for existing customer records, and analyzing inquiry details to assign a lead quality score. Geographic coordinates are added for service area verification, and the lead is tagged with relevant service categories and priority level.
CRM Storage and Organization
All lead information is stored in your customer database with proper organization and categorization. The system creates or updates the customer record, logs the inquiry in the contact history, and attaches any photos or documents provided. Related records are linked automatically if the customer has previously contacted your business.
Team Notification Dispatch
Instant notifications are sent to the appropriate team members based on your routing rules (service type, location, availability, or round-robin assignment). Notifications include complete lead details, recommended response templates, and quick action buttons for immediate follow-up or appointment scheduling.
Customer Acknowledgment Sent
An automated message is sent to the customer via their preferred contact method, confirming receipt of their inquiry. The message includes your business information, expected response timeframe, office hours, and helpful resources. For urgent requests, emergency contact information is prominently featured.
How It Works
In the chimney service industry, every missed call or web inquiry represents lost revenue. This automated lead capture system ensures that every potential customer—whether they contact you through your website form, Facebook message, phone call, or email—is immediately captured, organized, and routed to the right team member. The system automatically extracts customer details including service type (inspection, cleaning, repair, installation), property information, urgency level, and contact preferences. All lead data is instantly stored in your CRM with complete contact history, enabling your team to respond quickly with personalized follow-ups. Automated notifications alert your sales team immediately, while the customer receives an instant acknowledgment with your availability and service information. This eliminates the manual data entry that costs chimney businesses an average of 45 minutes per day, while ensuring response times that convert more leads into booked appointments.
The Trigger
Activates when a potential customer submits an inquiry through your website contact form, requests a quote online, sends a message on social media platforms, calls your business line, or emails your service address. The system recognizes lead submissions across all channels including embedded forms, landing pages, chatbots, and third-party lead generation platforms.
The Action
The system immediately extracts and validates all customer information including name, contact details, service address, chimney type, requested service, and urgency. Lead data is automatically organized and stored in your customer database with proper categorization and tagging. Your sales team receives instant notifications via their preferred channel (SMS, email, or app notification) with complete lead details and recommended next actions. The customer simultaneously receives an automated acknowledgment message confirming receipt of their inquiry, providing estimated response time, and offering helpful resources about your services.
Common Use Cases in Chimney
- A homeowner fills out a quote request form on your website at 11 PM requesting a chimney inspection. The system captures their details, stores them in your CRM, sends them an acknowledgment email with helpful preparation tips, and notifies your sales team first thing the next morning with complete lead information ready for follow-up.
- During a winter storm, multiple customers call requesting emergency chimney repair services. The system logs each call with the customer's information and urgent service needs, immediately notifies your emergency response team via SMS with prioritized lead lists, and sends customers confirmation messages with expected response times.
- A potential customer messages your Facebook page asking about chimney cap installation costs. The system captures the inquiry, creates a lead record with the conversation history, alerts your team, and automatically responds to the customer confirming that a specialist will provide a detailed quote within business hours.
- A property manager emails requesting quotes for chimney inspections across five rental properties. The system recognizes the bulk inquiry, creates a high-value lead record with all property addresses, notifies your commercial services team, and sends the property manager an acknowledgment with your commercial service information and timeline.
- A homeowner who inquired about services six months ago submits a new request for chimney cleaning. The system automatically links the new inquiry to their existing customer record, shows your team the complete interaction history including previous quotes and service interests, and enables personalized follow-up referencing their past inquiries.
