The When New Campaign Entries in Sociamonials, Create an Order in WooCommerce workflow on the FlowMattic canvas, with 2 steps across Sociamonials, WooCommerce
The workflow as it appears in the builder after import. Each step opens for editing.

What this workflow does

Social campaigns often promise something physical: a free sample, a starter kit, a prize. Once entries come in through Sociamonials, someone has to turn each one into something your store can fulfil. This workflow creates a WooCommerce order for every new entry, so the fulfilment work sits in the order list your team already uses.

The Sociamonials trigger starts a run whenever someone enters one of your campaigns. FlowMattic passes the entry's data to WooCommerce, where Create New Order adds an order built from the values you map. What goes into the order, such as the entrant's details and the product you send, is set in that step; enter a test entry after import to see what Sociamonials provides.

As imported, every entry becomes an order, with no check on who entered or how often. If only winners or qualifying entrants should get one, add a Filter before the WooCommerce step. Each run shows in Task History with the store's response.

Free sample campaign

A skincare brand runs a Sociamonials campaign offering a free sample. Each entry becomes a WooCommerce order the warehouse packs alongside paid orders.

Event giveaway with pick-up

A shop gives every campaign entrant a voucher pack to collect in store. The WooCommerce order list doubles as the pick-up list at the counter.

Ambassador starter kits

A brand recruits ambassadors through a Sociamonials campaign and sends each entrant a starter kit, tracked as a WooCommerce order like any other shipment.

How this workflow runs

What happens at each step once the workflow is on, and what you need before you import it.

  1. Step 1Trigger
    Sociamonials New Campaign Entries

    Fires when a new entry arrives in a Sociamonials campaign. The entry's data is passed to the WooCommerce step for mapping.

  2. Step 2Action
    WooCommerce Create New Order

    Creates an order in your WooCommerce store from the Sociamonials values you map. Run a test entry after import to see which order details the step takes and to check the order looks right.

What you need

  • FlowMatticCore
  • Sociamonials AccountAccount
  • WooCommerce PluginPlugin

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 Filter after the trigger if only some entrants should get an order, using a value from the entry that marks them as qualifying.
  • Open the first test order in WooCommerce and check its total and status before going live, so campaign orders sit in your store the way you intend.
  • Add an email step after WooCommerce to tell each entrant their order was created, if the Sociamonials entry carries an email address.

Questions about this workflow

Does every Sociamonials campaign entry create a WooCommerce order?

Yes, as imported. There is no Filter, so each new entry runs the WooCommerce step. Add a Filter if only some entries should become orders.

What if the same person enters the Sociamonials campaign twice?

Each entry starts its own run, so you get a second order. Nothing in the template spots repeat entrants, so check the order list before shipping if you allow one reward per person.

Must the WooCommerce store for these Sociamonials orders run on my FlowMattic site?

Yes. The WooCommerce step works with the store on the WordPress site where FlowMattic runs.

It's very straightforward, has a lot integrations and they work well. It is one thing to 'integrate' new external software, but integrating it well, with lots of options is where FlowMattic shines.
