Sales Automation #1366: Employee Offboarding with Typeform + Airtable + Cloudinary

Problem

Reps lose time copying employee offboarding updates from Typeform into Airtable, which delays follow-ups and skews pipeline reporting.

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

Workflow

Typeform stage change → map pipeline fields → upsert Airtable → log activity for employee offboarding.
