Carry warm Slack introductions into Instantly
When someone shares a referral and email in Slack, let Notis capture the contact in Instantly for thoughtful follow-up.
Trigger
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Action
Create Lead
Tool to create a new lead. Use when you need to add an individual lead to a campaign.
Why this helps
Warm introductions can be lost among everyday chat before the founder has time to save the contact.
- Save referred contacts while the introduction is fresh.
- Keep referral context attached to the handoff.
- Reduce the chance a warm lead is forgotten.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Instantly to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3In one plain-language instruction, tell Notis to create an Instantly lead when a Slack channel message shares a referral, includes the email, and clearly intends follow-up.
- 4Select the Slack channel message trigger, choose a reporting channel, and test with one real referral message.
