A sponsored LinkedIn post from Zapier partner Dmitry Shamis highlights how Zapier is being used to automate client onboarding and project setup work. The example describes replacing roughly an hour of manual setup per closed deal with two Zaps triggered by HubSpot deal-stage changes.
Key details
- The workflow uses two Zaps, with triggers tied to procurement and Closed Won stages in HubSpot.
- When a deal advances, Zapier automatically:
- scaffolds Drive folders and documents
- creates Asana projects from templates
- spins up Slack channels with different paths for new versus existing clients
- uses AI to parse the statement of work and generate tasks
- The post claims the automation saves about one hour per closed deal.
- Initial setup time for the system is described as under 20 minutes.
- The creator also notes planned additions for Canva and PandaDoc.
- The post is labeled #Sponsored and #ZapierPartner, indicating a paid partnership context.
For small business owners and builders, this is a practical example of using Zapier to standardize handoffs and reduce repetitive admin work at the moment a deal closes. It also shows how automation can connect CRM updates to downstream delivery systems without requiring custom software.
