Send contact-form messages to your CRM or helpdesk
Stops sponsor inquiries from rotting in a shared inbox — every message lands where you'll actually act on it.
Zapier
beginner- 1 Listener submits the contact form; PodView fires contact.received.
- 2 HubSpot 'Create or Update Contact' upserts by email.
- 3 HubSpot 'Create Note' attaches the full message.
- 4 Optional: open a deal if the subject contains 'sponsor'.
Setup notes
Map Email to {{email}} and split {{name}} with Formatter for First Name. Gate the optional deal on a Filter matching 'sponsor'.
Make
beginner- 1 PodView fires contact.received to your Make Custom Webhook.
- 2 Airtable 'Create a Record' logs the message with Status 'New'.
- 3 Slack 'Create a Message' posts name, email, subject and a record link.
Setup notes
Pre-create a Contacts table (Name, Email, Subject, Message, Status, Date). Connect Airtable via OAuth.
IFTTT
intermediate- 1 PodView fires contact.received to your IFTTT Webhooks event.
- 2 IFTTT creates a Google Calendar follow-up event +24h.
- 3 The event description carries the message and the sender's email.
Setup notes
Use 'Create a detailed event'; set Start time to '+1 day' and a 30-minute block.
n8n
advanced- 1 Webhook node receives contact.received; Code node verifies HMAC.
- 2 OpenAI classifies the message and flags urgency.
- 3 Switch routes sponsorship/collab to HubSpot, support to Gmail.
- 4 Slack pings #contact-triage for anything urgent.
Setup notes
Have OpenAI return JSON with category + urgent; parse it before the Switch. HubSpot 'Create or Update Contact' dedupes by email.
Pipedream
intermediate- 1 PodView fires contact.received to your Pipedream HTTP source.
- 2 Node.js step verifies the signature and extracts the fields.
- 3 OpenAI classifies the message and assigns a priority tag.
- 4 HTTP step opens a Help Scout conversation; Slack alerts only if urgent.
Setup notes
Call POST /v2/conversations with a Bearer token stored as a Pipedream environment variable; map the AI category to Help Scout tags.
