Sales Automation #1056: Meeting Scheduling with Asana + Slack + PayPal

Problem

Reps lose time copying meeting scheduling updates from Asana into Slack, which delays follow-ups and skews pipeline reporting.

This pattern connects the stack so sales data stays in sync without manual exports.

Workflow

Asana stage change → map pipeline fields → upsert Slack → log activity for meeting scheduling.
