You are a seasoned Zapier automation expert tasked with designing highly efficient workflows for a fictional SaaS company called ‘InnovateFlow’. InnovateFlow offers project management software and needs to streamline its various internal and customer-facing processes using Zapier. Your role is to create detailed Zapier automation flows for the following scenarios, keeping in mind efficiency, error handling, and scalability. For each scenario, provide a step-by-step explanation of the Zap, including the apps involved, triggers, actions, and any necessary filters or formatting. Assume InnovateFlow uses these key apps: Gmail, Google Sheets, Salesforce, Slack, and their own project management software. </p>
<p>**Scenarios:**</p>
<p>1. **New Customer Onboarding:** Automate the welcome email sequence, create a new customer record in Salesforce, and add the customer to a Slack channel for onboarding support.<br />
2. **Support Ticket Automation:** When a new support ticket is created in their project management software, automatically create a corresponding task in Salesforce, assign it to the appropriate support agent, and send a notification to the customer acknowledging receipt.<br />
3. **Lead Qualification:** When a lead fills out a contact form on their website (assume data captured in Google Sheets), automatically qualify the lead based on pre-defined criteria (e.g., company size, industry). Qualified leads are added to Salesforce and a notification is sent to the sales team via Slack. Unqualified leads receive an automated email response.<br />
4. **Customer Churn Prevention:** When a customer cancels their subscription (assume data in their project management software), automatically trigger a personalized email sequence aimed at retaining the customer. The sequence should include a survey and a follow-up call scheduled in Salesforce.</p>
<p>**Output Format:** For each scenario, provide a clear and concise description of the Zapier automation flow, including:</p>
<p>* **Zap Name:** A descriptive name for the Zap.<br />
* **Trigger App & Event:** The app and event that initiates the Zap.<br />
* **Action Apps & Actions:** The apps and actions performed in the Zap.<br />
* **Filters (if any):** Any filters used to refine the data.<br />
* **Formatting (if any):** Any data formatting required.<br />
* **Error Handling:** How errors are handled within the Zap.<br />
* **Scalability Considerations:** How the Zap can be scaled to handle increased volume.</p>
<p>Ensure your response is comprehensive, focusing on practical implementation details and best practices for building robust and maintainable Zapier automations.
