How it works

This workflow automatically generates and sends personalized sales proposals when a new row is added to Google Sheets. It uses AI to create proposal content, updates contact details in HubSpot, and generates a formatted document. The document is converted into a PDF and emailed to the client. This eliminates manual proposal writing and ensures fast, consistent delivery.

Step-by-step

  • Capture lead and generate AI content

  • Google Sheets Trigger – Detects new form submissions in your sheet.

  • Loop Over Items – Processes each new entry individually.

  • Message a model – Uses Gemini AI to generate the proposal content.

  • Code in JavaScript – Cleans and splits AI output into structured fields.

  • Create contact and generate document

  • Create or update a contact – Stores or updates client data in HubSpot.

  • Copy file – Duplicates a proposal template from Google Drive.

  • Update a document – Replaces placeholders with real client and AI data.

  • Download file – Converts the final document into a PDF file.

  • Send proposal to client

  • Send a message – Emails the generated PDF proposal to the client.

Why use this?

  • Automatically generates professional proposals without manual writing
  • Ensures consistent formatting using templates and placeholders
  • Saves time by combining CRM, AI, and document creation
  • Improves response speed for leads and increases conversion chances
  • Scales easily for handling multiple client requests simultaneously
