Okk so I was literally drowning in manual tasks every time someone placed an order on my Shopify store... like seriously, who has time to manually create invoices, update CRM, and send personalized emails to every single customer?
So I built this n8n workflow that does ALL of this automatically:
✨ Here's what happens when someone orders:
- Order comes in → extracts all customer data (name, email, address, etc.)
- Creates/updates the customer in Zoho CRM automatically
- Generates an invoice in Harvest with all the order details
- Creates a Trello card to track the order (super useful for fulfillment!)
- Sends smart emails based on order value:Orders over $50 → get a 15% coupon for next purchase 🎁Smaller orders → just a nice thank you message
- Tags high-value customers in Mailchimp for targeted campaigns
The best part? It literally runs 24/7 without me touching anything. My customers get instant responses, my CRM stays organized, and I can focus on actually growing the business instead of boring admin stuff.
I'm not gonna lie, setting this up took me a weekend but now it's like having a virtual assistant that never sleeps 😴
Anyone else using n8n for their e-commerce automation? Would love to hear what workflows u guys are running!
