How To Stay on Top of Document Views in Tekmatix for Faster Follow-Ups

When it comes to closing deals, timing is everything. That’s why Tekmatix has introduced an easy way to get notified the moment your document is first viewed by a recipient. Whether you're sending contracts, proposals, or onboarding forms, this new setting helps you follow up at exactly the right time—when your recipient is already engaged.


Why This Feature Matters

  • Instant Insight – Know exactly when your recipient opens your document.

  • Smarter Follow-Ups – Reach out while you're still top-of-mind.

  • Faster Closures – Use timely nudges to move deals forward.

  • More Visibility – Works even if your document has multiple recipients.


How to Enable Document Viewed Notifications

  1. Navigate to Settings:

    • Go to Payments > Documents & Contracts > Settings > Team Notifications.



  1. Turn on Notification:

    • Toggle Document Viewed ON to receive an email when your document is first viewed by any recipient.


  1. (Optional) Customize the Email Notification:

    • Subject: Change to something like “Your Document Was Just Viewed!”

    • Body: Add helpful details and include {{Preview URL}} so your team can quickly review the document.

  1. 📩 You’ll only receive one alert for the very first view—across all recipients.


Want Alerts for Each Recipient?

If your document has multiple recipients and you want a notification every time someone views it, you can automate it using a workflow:

  1. Go to Automated Workflows > Workflows > Create Workflow.

  2. Use the trigger:

    • Documents & Contracts > Document Viewed (Status = Viewed)

  3. Add your desired action(s), such as:

    • Send Email

    • Notify via Slack or SMS

    • Assign Task


Sample Scenario: Follow-Up at the Perfect Moment

Scenario:
Anna, a sales rep, sends a service agreement to a potential client. She enables the Document Viewed notification in Tekmatix.

Just an hour later, she gets an email: "Your document was just viewed."
Anna immediately follows up with a friendly email offering to answer any questions. The client replies that everything looks good—and signs the contract the same day.

Without this alert, Anna might have waited too long to follow up and risked losing momentum.


Pro Tip

Pair this notification with a workflow that assigns a follow-up task or sends a personalized email to the recipient. That way, no lead goes cold—and your team stays on top of every opportunity.
