The problem
The event ended. The leads are still in a sheet.
After a conference or webinar, the lead list sits in a spreadsheet while someone with CRM access finds time to create deals. Days pass, owners are unclear, and follow-up starts late.
When deals finally land in HubSpot, stages and amounts are typed by hand. Two people building from the same list rarely match, so the board does not reflect what happened at the event.
The outcome
Event pipeline is in HubSpot the day after
Stepwork creates a deal for each lead on the list, with pipeline, stage, amount, and owner from your routing rules. Sales can work the board while the event is still fresh, and the run records who asked and how many deals were created.
- Each lead becomes a deal with the fields from the request.
- Owner and stage follow the routing rules you set.
- The Slack reply says how many deals were created.
The process
From event lead list to open deals
A teammate posts the approved lead list in Slack. Stepwork creates the deals in HubSpot, in the same order every time.
- Step 1
Request it in Slack
A teammate posts the event lead list, or a link to it, in the sales ops channel. That message starts the flow, and Stepwork records who asked and when.
- Step 2
Open HubSpot deals
Stepwork signs in to HubSpot and opens the deals board for the pipeline named in the request.
- Step 3
Create each deal
For every lead, Stepwork creates a deal with stage, amount, and owner from the routing rules. Contacts are matched when they already exist.
- Step 4
Confirm and reply in Slack
Stepwork checks the new deals against the list, then posts the count back in Slack.
Why Stepwork
The same list becomes the same pipeline
A deterministic agent creates every deal with the same fields in the same order. Pipeline, stage, and owner come from the rules you recorded, not from whoever picks up the spreadsheet.
