Turn a Slack DM introduction into contact research
A useful introduction in a DM does not have to become another item to remember. Ask Notis to find the likely work email with Hunter.
Trigger
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
Action
Email Finder
Tool to find the most likely email address for a person at a domain or company. use when you have a person's name and a domain or company and need to infer their email.
Why this helps
One-to-one messages are easy to lose among other conversations, especially when contact research requires several extra steps.
- Acts on prospect details shared in direct messages.
- Returns a likely contact email without a separate lookup session.
- Helps keep a warm introduction from getting buried.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Hunter to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or describe it to Notis conversationally.
- 3Write one instruction asking Notis to find a likely work email in Hunter when a Slack DM shares a person's name and company for follow-up.
- 4Select Direct Message Received as the trigger and pick a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real introduction shared in a DM.
Questions about this workflow
Will it read channel messages too?
This workflow uses the Direct Message Received trigger. Use a separate channel-message automation if you want to process channel posts.
What if the DM does not identify a company?
Notis should report that the details are insufficient instead of guessing which company to search.
