Announce each new deal in the sales channel
The sales team sees every new deal with its title, value and contact as it is created, which keeps pipeline reviews short because nobody is surprised.
Deal CreatedSend Channel Message
Connect ActiveCampaign and Slack
Put ActiveCampaign activity in front of the people who act on it. New and changed deals post to the sales channel, campaign and SMS replies reach the right person, and tasks ping their owner in Slack. FlowMattic runs the workflows on your own WordPress site and lets you choose which events are worth a message.

Each one uses only triggers and actions the two integrations ship today, plus FlowMattic's own tools. Where the library has a ready-made template, import it instead of building from scratch.
Post won and lost deals to different channels
A Router reads the deal's status after each update. Won deals go to a wins channel, lost deals to the sales leads, and ordinary edits post nothing.

Tell the deal owner in Slack when a deal task is created
Find the owner of the deal, match their email to a Slack user and send them a direct message with the task, so tasks get noticed outside the CRM.

Share campaign replies with the marketing channel
People reply to newsletters with questions and leads. Each reply is posted with the contact and campaign name so someone answers, instead of the reply sitting in a mailbox.
Campaign RepliedSend Channel Message
Alert support when a contact answers an SMS
Teams that send SMS from ActiveCampaign get the reply text and the contact's details in a Slack channel, which is where they can share out the follow-up.

Flag bounce spikes after a campaign goes out
Each bounce adds one to a Counter. When the count reaches the limit you set, a Filter lets a warning through to the marketing channel so someone checks the list before the next send.

Remind a rep to call back when a contact note is added
When someone logs a note that asks for a callback, a Slack reminder is set for the rep, so the promise made on the phone is not forgotten.

Triggers and actions in this pair
A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.
Good to know
- Slack has no triggers in FlowMattic, so these workflows start in ActiveCampaign, or from a Schedule or Webhook. A Slack message cannot create or change a deal.
- Direct messages to reps need a Slack account with the same email as the ActiveCampaign user, because Find User by Email matches on it.
- Deal Updated fires on any change to a deal. Add a Filter or Router on the field you care about so the channel only gets the changes that matter.

FlowMattic runs on your WordPress site with unlimited runs, so a busy pipeline does not cost more per message.
Pull in data from your site
The same workflow can add a WooCommerce order total or a WordPress user detail to the Slack message before it posts.
Common questions
What can the ActiveCampaign Slack integration send to Slack?
Any ActiveCampaign trigger in FlowMattic, including deals created or updated, deal and contact tasks, notes, campaign opens, clicks, replies and bounces, and SMS replies, can post to a channel, a private channel or a person.
Can I send a deal alert only for big deals?
Yes. Add a Filter after Deal Created that continues only when the deal value is above your amount.
Can each rep get their own alerts?
Yes. Use Find Deal Owner to get the owner's email, Find User by Email to match the Slack account, and Send Direct Message to message them.
Can a Slack message update ActiveCampaign?
No, Slack has no triggers in FlowMattic. To change contacts or deals from outside ActiveCampaign, start from a form, a Webhook or another app's trigger.
Will campaign opens flood the channel?
They can on a large list. Use Campaign Replied or Campaign Clicked with a Filter instead, or post a count from a Counter rather than one message per contact.
