A lead fills out a form on your website. What happens in the next 5 minutes
decides whether they become a customer — or forget you exist.
THE PROBLEM
Leads sit in a mailbox or a spreadsheet until someone notices them. By then,
78% of buyers have already contacted a competitor.
THE SOLUTION
Lead Machine — an n8n pipeline that handles every inbound lead automatically,
from form submission to follow-up email in about 30 seconds, 24/7:
webhook → validation → duplicate check → Google Sheets → welcome email
→ Telegram alert to the manager → automatic follow-up in 24h
Every step is plain n8n nodes: no AI keys, no token fees, no monthly SaaS.
Validation rules, email texts, follow-up delay — all editable in the n8n UI.
It runs on YOUR infrastructure: credentials stay with you.
Most businesses lose customers not because their product is bad, but because no one followed up in time. That's what automation fixes. I build systems that message, remind, and follow up with your leads automatically so you never lose a sale just because you were busy. Here's one I built recently 👇.
