I’ve been building in n8n and Make for a while, and I’m exploring onboarding automation systems that handle the “post-sale” process automatically — think:
deal marked Closed Won → trigger onboarding
auto-create client folders/accounts
send branded welcome email + resources
assign training / KYC / compliance steps
schedule kickoff calls
I’m curious how others here have approached similar setups.
Specifically:
What’s your go-to stack for managing onboarding triggers and tracking completion?
How do you handle integrations with tools that don’t have APIs (e.g., email-only updates or CSV exports)?
Have you found a smart way to track multi-step onboarding without a CRM getting in the way?
Would love to hear what you’ve built or what problems you hit.
