Marketing Automation

The GHL Automation Architecture Behind Acquire Publishing.

Every free report, every checklist, every purchase, and every inquiry flows through a marketing automation system designed to capture, nurture, score, and convert leads — without the owner touching every step.

The System Architecture

Acquire Publishing runs on a GoHighLevel CRM backbone with integrated email, SMS, missed-call text-back, lead scoring, pipeline management, and calendar automation. Every visitor action — from a free report download to a book purchase to a BTO application — triggers a specific workflow designed to move the relationship forward without manual intervention.

Email Automation

Nurture sequences, purchase confirmations, and educational drips

SMS Follow-Up

Missed-call text-back, appointment reminders, and offer alerts

Call Routing

Inbound call tracking, missed-call capture, and callback scheduling

Lead Scoring

Engagement-based scoring to qualify leads for BTO calls

Pipeline Management

Multi-stage pipelines for BTO, partnerships, and buyer follow-up

AI Integration

AI-powered lead qualification, chat, and response automation

Automation Workflows

Each workflow is triggered by a specific visitor action and runs automatically through the CRM. Here is what happens behind the scenes.

Free Report Delivery

When a visitor requests a free report or checklist, the CRM captures the lead, delivers the report by email within seconds, tags the contact by interest category (funding, credit, cash flow, AI, etc.), enrolls them in a 5-day educational email sequence, and alerts the BTO team if the lead scores above threshold.

1.Form submission captured via API
2.Contact created with interest tags
3.Report emailed immediately
4.5-day nurture sequence begins
5.Lead score assigned based on engagement

Paid Product Buyer

When a customer purchases a book, bundle, or premium report, the CRM creates or updates the contact record, sends a purchase confirmation with digital access, enrolls the buyer in the post-purchase follow-up sequence, tags them as a buyer for future offers, and adds them to the buyer-only segment.

1.Purchase recorded and contact enriched
2.Digital access delivered immediately
3.Post-purchase welcome sequence (3 emails)
4.Buyer tag applied for exclusive offers
5.30-day reorder reminder sequence

AI/GHL Interest

When a lead expresses interest in AI or GHL automation (via form, checklist download, or workshop registration), the CRM routes them to the AI-specific pipeline, sends the AI Follow-Up Machine Checklist, enrolls them in the AI for Entrepreneurs email sequence, and flags them for a BTO AI/GHL Automation Call if engagement is high.

1.AI interest tag applied
2.AI checklist delivered
3.AI educational sequence (7-day)
4.Engagement scoring against threshold
5.BTO call flag if qualified

Funding Readiness

Leads interested in business funding receive the Funding Readiness Checklist, a 7-email sequence on fundability factors, and are scored for BTO Funding Readiness Call eligibility based on engagement, revenue range, and time-in-business data collected at signup.

1.Funding interest tag applied
2.Funding checklist delivered
3.Fundability education sequence (7 emails)
4.Credit/funding readiness scored
5.BTO Funding Readiness Call flag if qualified

Business Credit

Leads requesting the Business Credit Setup Checklist receive the checklist, a 7-email sequence on business credit building, and are scored for BTO Business Credit Call eligibility. The sequence covers EIN, DUNS, net-30 vendors, and bureau reporting.

1.Business credit tag applied
2.Credit checklist delivered
3.Business credit education sequence (7 emails)
4.Credit readiness scored
5.BTO Business Credit Call flag if qualified

Consulting-for-Equity Application

When a business owner submits a consulting-for-equity inquiry, the CRM creates a high-priority contact, sends an acknowledgment with the readiness checklist, schedules a discovery call via calendar integration, and routes the opportunity to the partnerships pipeline with all submitted data attached.

1.Application received and prioritized
2.Acknowledgment + checklist delivered
3.Discovery call scheduled via calendar
4.Partnership pipeline stage set
5.Internal notification to BTO team

Newsletter

Newsletter subscribers are tagged by interest, enrolled in the weekly newsletter sequence, and monitored for engagement. Highly engaged subscribers receive additional offers, catalog mailings, and book club invitations based on open and click behavior.

3.Weekly newsletter delivery
