Slack Update: Kick off Zaps When Certain Words Are Mentioned

Don't let important items get lost in the chatter. Set up Zaps that watch every Slack channel for certain words or usernames. Then get SMS notifications or round-ups at the end of the day of all your mentions. Work peacefully without worrying that you're missing important messages in Slack.
