What it does

Funding is the single cleanest reason a deal that died on budget can come back to life. This workflow scans your closed-lost accounts for new funding rounds and, when it finds one, automatically resurrects the opportunity and hands the rep a ready-to-send angle.

When to use it

Run it when budget or "not the right time" was a common loss reason and your ICP skews toward venture-backed companies. Best for teams with a HubSpot pipeline who want re-engagement triggered by real signals, not a calendar reminder.

How it works

  1. 1On a daily schedule, the workflow pulls every company marked Closed Lost in HubSpot within the last 18 months.
  2. 2For each account it runs an Exa search scoped to recent funding news (Series A/B/C, seed, raise).
  3. 3A logic step keeps only matches dated after the deal closed, so old rounds don't re-fire.
  4. 4For qualifying accounts it reopens the deal stage in HubSpot and writes the funding detail to a note.
  5. 5It posts a Slack alert to the rep with the amount, source link, and a one-line re-engagement angle tied to the raise.
