Questions about this workflow
Will every new file create a lead?
Tell Notis to create a lead only when the file contains clear prospect details. Files without usable information can be skipped and noted in the run report.
Does this require a fixed file template?
No fixed template is specified. Notis can review the file contents, but the instruction should say what counts as enough information to create a lead.
