Connect Gripp and Slack

Gripp runs the business side of your agency: quotes, projects, hours, tasks and invoices. FlowMattic posts the moments that matter to Slack: an offer accepted or rejected, an invoice sent, a payment received, a task done. Account managers, project leads and finance follow the work without everyone needing to log into Gripp.

Gripp and Slack workflows you can build

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.

Celebrate each accepted Gripp offer in Slack

An accepted offer is new work. Posting it to the team channel lets the studio celebrate and lets project planning start booking people for the job.

Ask the account manager to follow up on rejected offers

A rejected quote is still a relationship. The account manager gets a direct message so they can ask the client what changed while the conversation is recent.

Tell finance when a payment comes in

Payment Created posts each received payment to a private finance channel, so the team knows which invoices are settled without running a report.

Remind the account manager to chase an unpaid invoice

When an invoice is sent, Slack sets a reminder for the payment term, so someone checks whether it was paid and calls the client before it is weeks overdue.

Post completed tasks to the project channel

A Router uses the project name on each finished task to post it in that project's channel, so the client lead sees progress without asking the team.

Open a channel when a new assignment starts

Assignment Created makes a Slack channel named after the client and job, with the brief in its topic, so the team working on it has one place to talk.

Flag large purchase orders for approval

A Filter passes purchase orders above your limit to a private channel, so the director sees big spending on freelancers or media before it is committed.

Set up: accepted offers to the team

  1. Connect Slack

    In FlowMattic, open Connects and add Slack for the workspace your agency uses.

  2. Choose Offer Accepted

    Create a workflow with the Gripp Offer Accepted trigger and follow the instructions shown to send Gripp events to it.

  3. Accept a test offer

    Accept a test offer in Gripp so FlowMattic captures the offer and company fields.

  4. Post the win

    Add Send Channel Message, choose the channel and map the client, offer name and total. Test it and switch it on.

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

  • Hour Created fires for every time entry, which can be dozens a day. Keep it out of shared channels, or Filter it for unusual entries such as very long days.
  • Slack channel names must be lower case and unique. Use Text Formatter to build a short name from the client and assignment number.
  • The fields in the mapping are typical; check the captured test data for the exact names your Gripp account sends.

Why run this pair with FlowMattic

Gripp and Slack connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.

Wins and losses are seen

Accepted and rejected offers show up in Slack, so the studio celebrates new work and account managers follow up on lost quotes.

Cash flow is visible to the team

Sent invoices, payments and purchase orders reach finance and directors without waiting for the monthly figures.

One cost for the whole agency

FlowMattic runs on your own WordPress site with unlimited runs, so adding more clients and projects adds no automation cost.

Common questions

How do I connect Gripp to Slack?

Add a Slack connection in FlowMattic, start a workflow with a Gripp trigger such as Offer Accepted or Invoice Sent, and add Send Channel Message. Map the client and amounts, test with a real event and switch it on.

Can invoices and payments stay private?

Yes. Use Send Private Channel Message in the workflows that start from Invoice Sent and Payment Created, so only finance and directors see amounts.

Can each project have its own Slack channel?

Yes. Start from Assignment Created and use Create Channel. Later workflows, such as Task Completed, can use a Router on the project name to post into the right channel.

Can new clients be announced too?

Yes. Company Created and Contact Person Created are separate triggers. Post them to a sales channel so the team knows a new client or contact was added.
