Demo no-show, speed-to-lead and form-to-CRM checks for Chili Piper

Chili Piper runs inbound demo routing and instant booking: a Concierge router fires after a website form submit, books the right rep by round robin, sends email/SMS reminders and records no-shows into the CRM. Below: what Chili Piper's own docs say about speed to lead, routing and owner assignment, confirmations and reminders, the ways a demo funnel in Chili Piper usually leaks, and which free check to run on your own numbers.

Checks to run with your Chili Piper data

  • Demo Request Response Check

    How long does a contractor who asks for a demo wait to hear back?

    What to bring from Chili Piper

    • In HubSpot, filter contacts by Booking_Status_CP__c = Not Booked to find form submitters who did not self-book (these need a human first reply); Meeting_Creation_Date_CP__c holds the date of the most recent meeting created for the contact.[6]
    Open the Demo Request Response Check
  • Demo No-Show Check

    Why do owners book a demo and then not turn up?

    What to bring from Chili Piper

    • "Chili Piper works with two types of reminders: Email and SMS." SMS needs an Admin to connect Twilio in Command Center Integrations and a Phone field in the Guest Form.[2]
    • Timing options: "Before the Meeting", "Before the Meeting - if the Primary Guest did not respond", and "After the Meeting", in minutes, hours, days, or weeks.[2]
    • HubSpot: contact property No_Show_CP__c (true/false), Canceled_CP__c, and the meeting engagement Outcome set to "NO_SHOW", "RESCHEDULED" or canceled. Salesforce: No_Show_CP__c on Event, Lead and Contact.[6][7]
    Open the Demo No-Show Check
  • Held-Demo Leak Finder

    You booked more demos. Why didn't more owners show up and buy?

    What to bring from Chili Piper

    • HubSpot: contact property No_Show_CP__c (true/false), Canceled_CP__c, and the meeting engagement Outcome set to "NO_SHOW", "RESCHEDULED" or canceled. Salesforce: No_Show_CP__c on Event, Lead and Contact.[6][7]
    • Admins can see and set outcomes in the Meetings Activity feature under Reports; Salesforce reporting can use No_Show_CP__c (and Reschedule_CP__c if added) on the Event.[1][7]
    Open the Held-Demo Leak Finder
  • Lead Form to CRM Match

    Did every demo request from your site actually reach your CRM?

    What to bring from Chili Piper

    • Export HubSpot contacts with Booking_Status_CP__c and Router_Name_CP__c and match by email + date to the form CSV; webhook payload primaryGuestDataFields carries the guest form data.[6][3]
    Open the Lead Form to CRM Match

Speed to lead in Chili Piper

  • A Concierge router can be embedded on a website behind a form: "If you want to trigger Concierge after a prospect submits a form on your website (e.g., a Contact Us or Demo Request Form), this method is for you!" Snippets exist for HTML forms and providers such as Marketo, HubSpot and Pardot.[8]
  • Router links can go in emails: the Standard Router Link shows the router's form first; the Smart Router Link passes the prospect's email or CRM ID in the URL.[8]
  • Booking_Status_CP__c writes "Booked" or "Not Booked"; "Not booked" is written based on the timeout on the router's Not Scheduled-related paths if a rep is assigned, and "Disqualified" otherwise.[6]

Routing and owner assignment in Chili Piper

  • "Credit back if meeting is marked as 'no show'" (Distributions > Credits & Adjustments) credits one meeting back to the Assignee in Round Robin distribution; a matching setting exists for canceled meetings.[5]
  • Reps with 24-hour all-day busy blocks are treated as on vacation and skipped in the Team round-robin; "If all reps are on vacation at the same time ... Chili Piper will not route the prospect."[5]
  • Router_Name_CP__c records the Concierge or Handoff router a meeting came from.[6]

Confirmations and reminders in Chili Piper

  • "Chili Piper works with two types of reminders: Email and SMS." SMS needs an Admin to connect Twilio in Command Center Integrations and a Phone field in the Guest Form.[2]
  • Timing options: "Before the Meeting", "Before the Meeting - if the Primary Guest did not respond", and "After the Meeting", in minutes, hours, days, or weeks.[2]
  • "Reminders are set and triggered once a meeting is booked", so edits are not applied retroactively to meetings booked earlier.[2]
  • Advanced settings can restrict sending to certain weekdays and to meetings booked more than a set timeframe ahead.[2]
  • Send Email From options: Host email address, Booker email address, or No-reply email address. SMS reply forwarding defaults to "No one".[2]

Where a no-show is recorded in Chili Piper

  • Mark no-show from the Google Calendar event (toggle), the MyApp Scheduler (ghost icon > "Primary guest no-show"), the admin Meetings Activity report under Reports, or a Salesforce custom button.[1]
  • Auto No-Show reads attendance from Microsoft Teams and Google Meet ("Zoom support is coming soon"); Default Meeting Outcome sets No-show or Showed within one hour of scheduled end for meetings it cannot read. Both are org-wide and admin-only.[4]
  • Hosts must reconnect Teams/Google after auto detection is turned on; "Until a user reconnects, their meetings are not checked automatically."[4]
  • If a no-show meeting is rescheduled, No_Show_CP__c on the Event and the related Lead/Contact resets to false; Reschedule_CP__c increments by one.[7]

Webhooks and triggers in Chili Piper

  • Custom Webhooks live in Command Center > Integrations; they must be set to "Enabled" after creating. Payload includes meetingStartTime, assigneeEmail, primaryGuestEmail, productFeatureType (e.g. ConciergeRouter, RoundRobinSchedulingLink), distributionName and meetingTypeName.[3]
  • Requests are signed with X-Chili-Signature (HMAC-SHA256) and X-Chili-Timestamp; the signing secret is obtained by emailing support.[3]
  • An automatic no-show outcome "updates the meeting's CRM fields, the Meetings Activity report, webhooks, and any automations that run on a no-show." No separate no-show webhook type is listed on the webhook page.[4][3]
Event or triggerWhen it fires
For New Meetingevery new meeting booked, any source (payload type: Created)
For Meeting Updatemeeting updated, e.g. reassigned or rescheduled (type: Updated)
For Canceled Meetinguser or prospect cancels (type: Deleted)

Getting form requests and CRM records out in Chili Piper

  • Connecting HubSpot auto-creates contact properties Meeting_Type_CP__c, Router_Name_CP__c, No_Show_CP__c, Canceled_CP__c, Booking_Status_CP__c and Meeting_Creation_Date_CP__c.[6]

How a demo funnel in Chili Piper usually leaks

  1. Reminder edits don't reach already-booked demos

    Reminders attach at booking time; a fixed reminder is not applied to meetings booked before the change unless removed and re-added on the Meetings Reports page.[2]

    Fix: After changing a reminder, re-attach it to upcoming meetings from the Meetings Reports page.

  2. SMS reminders silently need Twilio and a phone field

    SMS reminders require an Admin to connect Twilio and a Phone field on the Guest Form; without a phone the SMS reminder is marked Skipped ("Phone not found") in Meetings Reports.[2]

    Fix: Connect Twilio in Command Center and add a Phone field to the Guest Form before relying on SMS.

  3. Zoom demos aren't auto-marked

    Auto No-Show reads Teams and Google Meet only; Zoom meetings get the Default Meeting Outcome, which can record a no-show as Showed (or vice versa).[4]

    Fix: Leave Default Meeting Outcome unset for Zoom-heavy teams and mark Zoom demos manually.

  4. Rescheduling wipes the no-show flag

    Rescheduling a no-show resets No_Show_CP__c to false, so CRM no-show counts undercount rebooked no-shows.[7]

    Fix: Add Reschedule_CP__c and count rescheduled-after-no-show separately.

  5. Everyone OOO means no routing

    If every rep in the team has a 24-hour block, Chili Piper won't route the prospect to anyone that day (or only offers slots after a rep returns), so those demo requests get no same-day booking.[5]

    Fix: Keep at least one rep available or add an overflow team for holidays.
