I'm subscribed to many newsletters, many of which are permanently hosted on Substack. I end up not reading most of them because of time constraints, especially when they're lengthy.

This workflow is replacing many of my newsletter subscriptions: it summarizes the original post in up to 5 very brief bullets, giving me exactly the amount of information for me to decide whether to click into the full post or not!

Dynamically run automations using other team members' accounts

This powerful workflow uses the 'Assign a Role' action to dynamically fetch the Account Manager for a closed Deal in HubSpot, so that a welcome email to the new customer will be sent using their Gmail account. Before the email is sent, the assigned Account Manager will first get a Human-in-the-Loop approval step where they have the opportunity to give the final go-ahead.
