Example webhook payload for new lead:

                {
  "event": "lead.created",
  "timestamp": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z",
  "data": {
    "id": "lead_abc123",
    "email": "john@company.com",
    "name": "John Smith",
    "company": "Acme Corp",
    "score": 85,
    "source": {
      "page": "/pricing",
      "campaign": "google_ads"
    },
    "answers": {
      "company_size": "51-200",
      "budget": "$10k-50k",

Advanced Rules

Create conditional rules to route notifications to the right people:

IF Lead score > 80

THEN Send to #hot-leads Slack channel + SMS to sales manager

IF Page URL contains /enterprise

THEN Notify enterprise sales team via email

IF Language = Spanish

THEN Route to Spanish-speaking support agent

IF Outside business hours

THEN Queue for next day + send auto-reply

Best Practices

Start with essential notifications only — avoid notification fatigue

Use Slack for real-time alerts, email for summaries

Set up lead score thresholds to prioritize hot leads

Create dedicated channels for different lead types

Test your webhook integration thoroughly before going live

Review notification volume weekly and adjust as needed
