Route and qualify email leads with Gmail, Gemini, Slack, Sheets and Salesforce

Email Lead Router: Gmail → Gemini → Salesforce Pipeline

Who is this for?
Event sales teams & conference organizers processing 100+ sponsor/partner emails weekly who need instant lead qualification, Salesforce automation, & pipeline analytics. What problem is this workflow solving?
Event email chaos kills revenue:

200+ sponsor emails/week → manual Salesforce entry
No sentiment/intent scoring = missed $ opps
10+ hours/week routing + logging
Fragmented pipeline visibility

Zero-drop AI qualification → auto-Salesforce → team routing.
