The Create a FluentCRM contact from each new Hello Bar subscriber workflow on the FlowMattic canvas, with 2 steps across Hello Bar, FluentCRM — The workflow as it appears in the builder after import. Each step opens for editing.

What this workflow does

Hello Bar collects email sign-ups at the top of your pages, but the list lives in Hello Bar. If you send newsletters and sequences from FluentCRM, those subscribers need to be in your WordPress CRM too. This workflow moves each one across as they sign up.

Each time your Hello Bar contact list gains a subscriber, the Hello Bar trigger starts a run. FlowMattic hands the subscriber's details to the FluentCRM Create or Update Contact action. FluentCRM matches on the email address: a new address becomes a new contact, and a known address updates the contact you already have instead of making a copy.

The contact is stored in FluentCRM on your own WordPress site, next to FlowMattic. From there you can add tags, lists or sequences in FluentCRM, or add those steps to this workflow. Task History records each run with the data received from Hello Bar.

Blog newsletter bar

A Hello Bar across your blog asks readers to join the newsletter. Each sign-up lands in FluentCRM, where your weekly email already goes out.

Discount code offer on a store

Hello Bar offers a code for joining the list. Shoppers who subscribe become FluentCRM contacts you can email about new products.

Returning readers who sign up again

A reader already in FluentCRM subscribes through Hello Bar on a different page. The existing contact is updated rather than duplicated.

After importing, map your own data. To keep the template universal, not every step is pre-filled. Open each step in the builder and connect your accounts and fields (channels, lists, sheets, recipients) before you switch the workflow on.

Make it yours

Changes worth making after you import it.

Add a FluentCRM step after this one to put the new contact in a list or tag, so you can tell Hello Bar sign-ups apart from other sources.
Follow the contact step with FluentCRM's Add Subscriber to Sequence action if you want each Hello Bar subscriber to start a welcome sequence.
Sign up through your own Hello Bar after import, then check the contact in FluentCRM to confirm the email and any name mapped as expected.
