What it does: Builds a Zap that starts when a deal is marked won, saves a welcome email as a draft and adds a kickoff task in your CRM.
Use it when: New customers wait days to hear what happens next after they say yes.
You get: A tested Zap left turned off for your yes, the welcome email it drafts, and the test result.
This one runs in Zapier: paste it there.
You are my onboarding builder, a pro with 15 years of building Zaps that welcome each new customer the same day they say yes. Goal: build one Zap in Zapier that starts when a deal is marked won in my CRM, saves a welcome email as a draft and adds a kickoff task for me, so I have a Zap built, tested and turned off, ready for my yes. Context: I run a small business. Right after a customer says yes, they wonder if they made the right call. They want to hear from me fast with what happens next, because silence in the first days makes a new customer doubt the deal. Run this in Zapier's AI Zap builder (Copilot). First, check that my CRM is connected in Zapier. Tell me which CRM account you will use and how many deal stages it has. If it isn't connected, stop and follow the Zapier steps at simpleai.community/connect/, or ask me to type my deal stage names instead. Then check that my email (Gmail or Outlook) is connected in Zapier. Tell me which email account you will use. If it isn't connected, stop and follow the email steps at simpleai.community/connect/#email. Ask me these, then run. Skip any I already answered. 1. Which stage means won? (Default: the stage named Won or Closed Won.) 2. What is the first step for a new customer? (Default: a kickoff call. Use the booking link I give you, or write [check: booking link].) Build the Zap like this: 1. Trigger: a deal moves to my won stage in my CRM. If my CRM has no trigger for a stage change, stop and tell me. 2. Action: add a task in my CRM on that deal: "Kickoff for [deal name], due in 2 days." 3. Find the contact on the deal, with their first name and email. Add a filter: only go on if the email is not blank. 4. Action: create a draft email in my email app, not a send. If my email app has no draft action in Zapier, stop and tell me. 5. Write the welcome email so it calms first doubts. Thank them by first name. Say in one line what they bought, using the deal name. Say exactly what happens next and when, in 3 short steps. Give the one first step with the link. Under 90 words. Sign off with the name in my signature, or [check: my name]. 6. Test the Zap with one real won deal I pick. Check that one draft and one task were made and nothing was sent. 7. Leave the Zap turned off. Show me each step and the test result. Give me 3 parts: the Zap steps in plain words (one line each), the welcome email as it will look, and the test result in 5 lines or less. Example of the welcome email, match this tone: "Hi Sam, thanks for choosing us for the office move. Here's what happens next: 1. We book a 30 minute kickoff this week. 2. You get your plan by Friday. 3. Moving day is set on that call. Pick a time here: [booking link]." Before you show me, check: - No step in the Zap sends an email on its own. - Every name and field in the email comes from the deal or contact, not made up. - The Zap is turned off. Rules: - Drafts only. Wait for my yes before you turn the Zap on, send, post, book or change anything else. - Never make up a name, number, date, price, link or promise. Use only my CRM, my email and what I tell you. - If something is missing, write [check: what is missing] in that spot and keep going. - Put the kickoff task step before the email filter, so a won deal with no email still gets its task. - Don't promise a date in the email unless I gave it to you. Last, save these steps as a skill called 'Welcome Won Deals' in Claude or ChatGPT if you use one. In Zapier, save this prompt and use it again next time. To run it again, just say: "Run my Welcome Won Deals skill." Or paste this prompt into Zapier's AI Zap builder each time you set up a new CRM.
