GoHighLevel workflow recipe 34 · names checked against HighLevel’s help center on October 17, 2026
The problem: Clients open the proposal and nobody follows up.
What this workflow does: If a proposal is viewed, GoHighLevel follows up if it's not signed.
The workflow at a glance
- Trigger — Documents & Contracts · Viewed
- Wait — Wait · 2 days
- Action — Send Email · any questions?
- Action — Add Task · follow-up call
- Goal — Goal Event · Document Status
Bold names are the exact trigger and action names in HighLevel. Values after “·” are examples — use your own.
Step-by-step setup
- Automation → Workflows → Create Workflow → Start from scratch.
- Add New Trigger → Documents & Contracts. Filters: Status = Viewed, Template = your proposal template.
- Wait: 2 days.
- Send Email: any questions about the proposal?
- Add Task: follow-up call.
- Goal Event → Document Status (signed/accepted), End this workflow, so signed clients get nothing more.
