Connecting to Zapier

Introduction

You can connect Privyr to other lead sources or platforms via Zapier to receive new leads in your Privyr account. This gives you instant new lead alerts and automatically creates the leads in your client list so you can immediately contact them.

The Privyr Integration in Zapier lets you connect over a thousand different lead sources to Privyr, including ClickFunnels, Google Forms, Jotform, Calendly, Instamojo, LeadPages, GetResponse, and many other platforms.

Zapier Pricing

Privyr subscriptions include unlimited lead source integrations, lead notifications, and client management, so connecting to Zapier does not cost anything extra from your Privyr account.

However, connecting your lead source(s) via Zapier may require a paid Zapier subscription depending on the type and number of apps you wish to connect, and the volume of leads you receive.

Refer to Zapier’s pricing page for more information.

New Lead Alerts

Once you connect your lead source(s) to Privyr through Zapier, any new leads submitted via those platforms will send you a new lead alert via the Privyr app and email. You can configure these alerts via your Account Notification Settings.

Tap the alert to view the lead with all the captured information displayed on their notes field. You can immediately contact them or send an auto-personalised Quick Response.

You can also enable additional alerts if you haven’t acted on a new lead within 15 minutes and 60 minutes, in case you missed the first notification. You can enable these extra alerts via your Account Notification Settings.

All new leads from Zapier will be displayed with an UNCONTACTED label in their client details and the client list until you act on them. They’ll also appear in your Uncontacted Leads group.

Depending on your Uncontacted Leads Settings, the UNCONTACTED label may be automatically removed when you view the lead, click their contact buttons, send them content, and/or set a follow up date. You can also manually mark or unmark a lead as UNCONTACTED via the options menu when viewing the lead.

Distribute Zapier Leads to other Recipients

You can automatically share leads from Zapier with other recipients via email, even if they don’t have a Privyr account. This is useful if you’d like to distribute leads to your clients or colleagues, and can be configured to forward all leads to all recipients, or distribute leads equally in a Round Robin fashion.

Recipients will receive new lead details instantly via email and/or the Privyr app, with attribution ‘This lead was sent to you by @name at @company(where @name and @company are replaced with the Name and Company from your User Profile, respectively).
