The Automation

6 steps from signup to kickoff call

1
Trigger: New Client Form Submission
Webflow / Calendly / Typeform · Webhooks: Catch Hook

The automation begins the moment a new client fills out your intake form. Any form tool works — the webhook listener captures the submission.

Setup notes
  • Paste your form webhook URL into your form tool settings
  • Test with a sample submission to confirm the trigger fires
2
Action: Send Welcome Email
Gmail / SendGrid / Mailgun · Email: Send an Email

Instantly send a personalized welcome email with their name, the kickoff call link, and a PDF attachment of your onboarding guide.

Setup notes
  • Set FROM address to your agency email
  • Use {{email}} from the webhook payload for the TO field
  • Attach your onboarding PDF from Google Drive or Dropbox
3
Action: Create Tasks in ClickUp / Asana
ClickUp / Asana / Todoist · Project Management: Create a Task

Automatically create a structured task list for the new client project. Pre-fill the client name, project type, and due dates from the intake form.

Setup notes
  • Create a "New Client Onboarding" template task list first
  • Map {{client_name}} to the task assignee
  • Set the first task due date to 3 business days after signup
4
Action: Send Document Collection Request
Gmail / Loops / Mailgun · Email: Delay + Send an Email

Trigger a second email 2 hours after the welcome, asking for required documents (logo, brand guidelines, content). Include a direct upload link.

Setup notes
  • Use the built-in Delay module: wait 2 hours after step 2
  • Include a direct link to your Dropbox/Google Drive upload folder
  • List exactly which files you need (logo, color codes, content brief)
5
Action: Schedule Kickoff Call
Calendly / Acuity / Cal.com · Calendly / Scheduling: Send a Message / Create Event

Send a Calendly link so the client can book their kickoff call. The link is pre-filled with your agency branding and set to only show your availability.

Setup notes
  • Create a dedicated "Kickoff Call" event type in Calendly
  • Use 45-minute meetings with a 15-minute buffer after
  • Set your availability to Mon–Thu 10am–4pm only
6
Router: Check If Documents Received
ClickUp / Airtable · Router: Conditional Branching

After 5 business days, check whether documents were submitted. If yes, move to active project setup. If no, send a friendly reminder.

Setup notes
  • Check the "Documents Received" custom field in ClickUp
  • Path A: documents received → create "Project Active" task
  • Path B: not received → send reminder email + wait 2 more days
