Solution	Squared Up turned to app automator Zapier to automate their processes. Zapier allowed Squared Up to automate a significant amount of functionality, including the management of new leads, issuing trial licenses, recording information in a central database, and sending nurturing emails throughout the trial period. Squared Up used customer relationship manager (CRM) Podio to house their leads. Paired with two of Zapier's homegrown applications, Webhooks and Filter, the team was able to manage leads with a handful of Zaps. Zaps are bridges between two or more apps, connecting tools that are normally separate. Depending on the status of a new action in Podio, Squared Up would send a specific email. If the status cleared the filter, Zapier would send off an email through webhooks. Squared Up also used Zapier to automate their social media posts, saving time and increasing efficiency.
