I built a simple but powerful lead automation system using n8n.
When a new lead comes in:
-Captures the data (name, email, budget, message)
-AI classifies the lead (HOT or COLD)
-Adds it to Google Sheets automatically
-Sends instant email alerts for HOT leads
-Sends an automated follow-up email to the lead
-Schedules additional follow-ups based on response (or no response)
No more checking forms, chasing leads, or forgetting to follow up. Everything runs automatically.
This system can be used for:
-Lead generation & qualification
-Client onboarding
-Contact form automation
-Sales pipeline management
-Booking and inquiry handling
-Customer support triage
-Automated follow-ups & nurturing
For this example:
A lead with a $500 budget and interest in automation was marked as HOT, logged, and contacted immediately.
