Add RFP bookings to lead tracker and schedule reps

Automatically capture RFP event bookings across Calendly and Microsoft Outlook. Create and update leads in your tracker and calendar when RFP event invitees are created or start times are set or rep routing is resolvedβ€”so you can schedule faster, keep intake complete, and avoid manual follow-up.

How this automation speeds up rep scheduling for RFP bookings

When configured RFP bookings come in, waiting for manual data entry slows down scheduling and follow-through. This automation captures invite payloads, formats lead details, writes them to Microsoft Excel, and creates rep calendar eventsβ€”so your team can act immediately.
