Unify Your Loyalty Program: Automatically Reward Sales Activities & Demo Bookings

Is your customer loyalty program trapped on your e-commerce platform? Many businesses fail to reward valuable customer interactions that happen outside of a direct purchase, like booking a sales call or engaging with your team. This creates a fragmented experience, devalues your loyalty program, and weakens customer retention by ignoring key moments in their journey.


This playbook shows you how to break down those silos and create a truly unified loyalty experience. By connecting your sales and scheduling tools using Zapier, you can automatically award loyalty points for high-intent customer actions. When a prospect books a demo in Calendly or a deal moves to a new stage in HubSpot, this system instantly recognizes their engagement and rewards them, making your loyalty program an integral part of the entire customer lifecycle, not just an post-purchase afterthought.

Expected Outcomes

  • Bridge the gap between your sales funnel and your loyalty program.
  • Increase high-value actions like demo bookings by offering immediate rewards.
  • Create a seamless, omnichannel loyalty experience for your customers.
  • Boost customer retention by recognizing engagement beyond just purchases.
  • Automate reward distribution, saving your team time and eliminating manual errors.

Integration Logic

  • Sales Funnel Loyalty Link

    This integration triggers when a new meeting is booked in Calendly. Zapier first searches for the invitee in HubSpot CRM by email. If the contact exists, it's updated; if not, a new contact is created. Subsequently, the contact's lifecycle stage is updated to 'Opportunity' (or another specified stage), and they are added to a specific HubSpot list for targeted nurturing or loyalty campaigns. Data flows from Calendly (Invitee details, meeting info) through Zapier's logic to HubSpot (Contact properties, list membership, lifecycle stage).
