Keep important introductions in Apollo

When you introduce or connect with someone by email, Notis can help make sure the person is easy to find in Apollo later.

Trigger

Email Sent

Triggers when a Gmail message is sent by the authenticated user. It polls the 'SENT' label and emits metadata including sender, recipients, subject, timestamp, and thread ID.

Action

Create Apollo contact

Creates a new contact in apollo.io; use `account id` to link to an organization and `contact stage id` for sales stage, noting that apollo does not perform automatic deduplication.

Why this helps

Valuable introductions often remain trapped in sent threads and are hard to find when it is time to reconnect.

  • Keep important introductions searchable in Apollo
  • Capture only people identified in sent messages
  • Reduce the need to revisit old threads to find contact details

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and Apollo once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation and add a name and prompt.
  • 3In one instruction, define which sent introductions should become contacts and tell Notis to use only explicit identifying details.
  • 4Choose the Email Sent trigger and select a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real introduction email and review the new contact.

Questions about this workflow

Will the workflow create a contact for every person mentioned?

Set a specific rule for the types of introductions worth tracking so routine mentions do not create records.

What if an email only includes a name?

Apollo contact creation may need more usable details. Notis should not invent an email, company, or other missing information.
