Why this helps
Neurodivergent founders often struggle with context-switching between tools. Manually checking HubSpot for new contacts creates friction and risk of missed leads.
- Receive instant Slack alerts the moment a contact is created
- Keep your team in the loop without breaking focus
- Reduce missed leads and follow-up delays
- Eliminate manual CRM checks throughout the day
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect your HubSpot and Slack accounts to Notis via the portal (one-time setup).
- 2In the Notis portal, create a new automation: Name it 'New Contact Alert', paste this prompt: 'When a new contact arrives in HubSpot, send a Slack message to the #leads channel with the contact's name, email, and company.'
- 3Select 'Contact Created' as your trigger and choose the #sales channel to report automation runs.
- 4Test by creating a test contact in HubSpot and verify the Slack message appears instantly.
Questions about this workflow
Will this create duplicate messages if multiple people add contacts?
No. Notis detects the HubSpot event itself, not who triggered it, so each new contact generates exactly one Slack message.
Can I change which Slack channel receives the notifications?
Yes. Edit the automation's prompt to specify a different channel (e.g., '#marketing' or '#operations'), or change it in the automation settings.
What information shows up in the Slack message?
By default, Notis includes the contact name, email, and company. Edit your prompt to add or remove fields like phone, job title, or source.
