Syncline

Open a Trello onboarding card when a deal is won

The moment a deal reaches closed won, delivery gets a card with the company, the value, the owner and the checklist that starts every engagement.

Trigger: Deal stage changed
Action: Create a card
About 7 minutes to set up

How this flow works

Syncline watches HubSpot for Deal stage changed. When that happens it runs Create a card in Trello with the fields you mapped.

  1. Connect the portal and filter the trigger to the closed won stage only.
  2. Connect Trello and pick the board and the list onboarding starts on.
  3. Map the company, the owner and the value onto the card.
  4. Move one test deal to won, read the card, then enable the flow.

Field mapping

From HubSpotTo TrelloNote
CompanyCard nameThe card is named after the account, which is how the delivery team refers to the work anyway.
OwnerMembersThe rep who closed it is added to the card, matched by the email on their Trello account.
Lifecycle stageListOnly closed won reaches the board, and other stages are filtered out before a card is ever made.
Deal amountLabelsA size label such as Enterprise is chosen from the value, using labels already present on the board.

Why teams run it

  • Delivery starts the day the deal closes, not the next standup
  • The rep stays on the card, so questions have somewhere to go
  • A checklist arrives with the card and the process is followed

Who uses it

An onboarding manager who currently finds out about new customers in a weekly meeting.

About the two apps

HubSpot

HubSpot is the record of who your customers are and how far along they got. Syncline feeds it from the places leads actually arrive, and pushes deal changes back out to the team.

All HubSpot flows

Trello

Trello is the task board people actually keep updated, because moving a card takes one second. Syncline creates those cards from other systems and reports back when they move.

Questions

Can the card carry a standard checklist?
Yes. Add the checklist action after the create step and the same items arrive on every card, which is how a process survives a busy week.
What if the deal has no company?
The card is still created and named from the contact instead, and the run history flags the missing company so somebody can tidy the record.
