Pipedrive - Route Docs

Pipedrive is a simple to use CRM focused on helping sales people of small sales teams.

As they say on their website: “Sales CRM for small teams with big ambitions”.

What can I do with this integration?

With this integration you can send contact information you capture with Route to your Pipedrive account and get events and people from your Pipedrive account to start engaging with them on Route.

Pipedrive To Route:

Use data from Pipedrive to fuel Route with valuable information. Use this information to trigger campaigns.

New Contact – Add a new contact on Route when you add he(she) to your Pipedrive.
Update Contact – Triggers when your contacts on Pipedrive change status and deals.

Route to Pipedrive:

From a campaign you create on Route, automate some tasks on Pipedrive

Create Person – Add a new Person only if he(she) doesn’t exists.
Update Person – Update this Person if he(she) already exists.
Create Organization – Add a new Organization if it doesn’t exists.
Create or Update a Deal – Add a new Deal if the Person doesn’t have, otherwise update the Person’s Deal stage.
Create Activity – Add an Activity to this Person on Pipedrive.
Create Note – Add a Note to this Person on Pipedrive.

Use cases

Everytime a person fill a form on your website, you could send him/her to Pipedrive.
Everytime a new person is added to Pipedrive, you could trigger a lead nutrition campaign that will send useful e-mails to them, periodically and automatically.
When a person click on an important email link he/she could be updated on sales pipeline.
When a person do an important action on your site or app, you could send a note to Pipedrive.
And much more, depending of your creativity! 😉

Important information about Route + Pipedrive
