Overview

Meeting Settings > Outcome Email manages the selected client's deal-wide post-meeting request to the assigned meeting owner. Requests are on by default for managed clients unless a SalesHive team member has turned them off for that client. Set the timing, choose whether the request goes by email or posts in the client's linked Slack channel, optionally CC client team members on email delivery, edit the subject and body, and send a safe preview. Emails send from SalesHive Notifications at notifications@saleshive.com, not from a client outreach mailbox. Internal SDRs are redirected to the read-only meeting-owner directory before these settings load.

How to use this page

  1. Open Outcome Email

    Go to Platform > Settings > Meeting Settings and select Outcome Email. This configuration belongs to the selected deal rather than an individual campaign. Internal SDRs are redirected to the active-owner directory; ask your manager or strategist about reminder or outcome-email changes.

  2. Enable and configure the request

    With the required non-SDR employee management access: check Owner outcome email (on by default for managed clients, so turn it off if this client should not get requests), set Send after, pick how to send the request under Send the request by, then optionally enter comma-separated addresses under CC client team members (optional), and edit the subject and body. Select Save settings after reviewing the merge fields and one-use outcome-button note.

  3. Choose email or Slack

    Email to the owner is the default and sends a private email. To post requests in the client's Slack channel instead, select the Slack option (it shows the channel name). It is only available once a client-facing Slack channel is linked for the client. In Slack, the request and its one reminder tag the owner when they are a channel member, and the saved outcome is added to the request's thread. If Slack cannot take the post, the email is sent instead. CC recipients apply to email and to email fallback when Slack cannot post; they do not receive the Slack post itself.

  4. Understand the sender and recipient

    The assigned active meeting owner receives the live request. Optional CC client team members receive the email and its one reminder, including the secure outcome link. Emails send from SalesHive Notifications at notifications@saleshive.com. SalesHive does not borrow a client Primary, SDR, Sender, cold-outreach or warming mailbox, does not address the prospect, and does not add a client signature or use outreach volume.

  5. Review the deal-wide scope

    The line under the settings shows the current state: On by default for managed clients, Set explicitly for this client, or Requests paused with the reason (for example Client outreach paused, Client service ended, Self-serve workspace, Not a managed client workspace, Archived client, or an internal, demo or Testing workspace). A paused client gets no requests even when the switch is on. When the default has not started yet, it says requests start with the next automatic check, for meetings scheduled after that time. The same configuration applies to eligible meetings across every campaign for the selected client, including contacts moved or re-enrolled into another campaign after the meeting was booked. Each meeting gets one request at most, plus one reminder if the outcome is still missing. Meetings held before the workflow is enabled, or more than 7 days ago, are not backfilled. Automatic requests and reminders stop while outreach is paused for the client, whether delivery is set to email or Slack.

  6. Send a test email

    With the required non-SDR employee management access, enter a reviewed test recipient and select Send test. This sends a real email from SalesHive Notifications using the current subject and body, even when requests are set to Slack. Its test outcome form does not update meeting records.

What the buttons do

Outcome Email
Management view, subject to your access: Opens the selected client's deal-wide post-meeting owner request settings.
Owner outcome email
Management view, subject to your access: Turns the selected client's deal-wide owner request workflow on or off. It starts on for managed clients. Saving after you change it records an explicit choice for this client.
Email to the owner
Sends each outcome request and reminder as a private email to the meeting owner. This is the default.
Slack #channel
Posts each outcome request and reminder in the client's linked client-facing Slack channel. Greyed out until a channel is linked.
CC client team members (optional)
Adds comma-separated client team addresses to the initial owner email and its one reminder, including the secure outcome link. CC applies to Slack fallback email but not to Slack posts. Test emails go only to the test recipient.
Save settings
Management view, subject to your access: Saves the delay, delivery choice, subject, body, and current enabled state.
Send test
Authorized non-SDR employees: send a real test email from notifications@saleshive.com. Its test outcome form does not update meeting records.
Owners / Reminders
Management view, subject to your access: Opens meeting-owner routing or pre-meeting prospect reminder settings for the same client.
Update Meeting Outcome API
Opens the developer documentation for reporting a meeting outcome through the SalesHive API instead of, or alongside, the owner email. Not shown in a self-serve workspace.

Common questions

Who receives the real update?
The assigned active meeting owner receives the live request. Any client team members entered in CC client team members (optional) also receive the initial email and its reminder. The prospect is never the recipient of this workflow.
What does CC client team members do?
Enter comma-separated client team email addresses to copy them on the owner request and its one reminder, including the secure outcome link. CC also applies if a Slack request falls back to email. Test emails go only to the test recipient, and CC addresses do not receive Slack posts.
Can the request go to Slack instead of email?
Yes, per client. Once a client-facing Slack channel is linked for the client, a SalesHive team member can select the Slack option under Send the request by and save. The request and reminder post in that channel with the same secure outcome link and tag the owner when they are a channel member. Slack posts use standard wording, not the subject and body set here. When an outcome is saved, the answer is added to the request's thread (without notes). If no channel is linked or Slack refuses the post, the owner gets the email instead.
The Slack option is greyed out. Why?
No client-facing Slack channel is linked for this client yet. Ask the SalesHive team to link one in Client Slack Notifications, then the option becomes available.
What does the owner choose on the outcome form?
One of three outcomes, plus Outcome notes and next steps: Meeting Held, Meeting Not Held - Reschedule (SalesHive reaches out to book a new time), or Meeting Not Held - Rep Is Rescheduling (the rep sets the new time, so SalesHive does not reach out). The form does not ask for qualification or contract value, and values already saved on the meeting stay as they were. The notes are saved in the meeting's Sales Rep Notes, and the form opens with any notes already there. The original SDR / AI Notes from booking stay unchanged.
Does the owner get a reminder if they skip the request?
Yes, once. If the meeting still shows Meeting Set or Rescheduled two days after the first request, the owner gets one reminder with a fresh outcome link, by email or in the Slack channel to match the delivery setting. Reminders only go out while client outreach is active, within 7 days of the meeting, and never on a weekend (Eastern time). Recording the outcome anywhere, such as the form, Booked Meetings or the dialer, stops it. The reminder uses its own standard wording, not the subject and body you set here.
Which mailbox sends the outcome request?
The active global SalesHive Notifications mailbox at notifications@saleshive.com. The workflow never borrows a client outreach mailbox, appends a client signature, or consumes outreach volume.
The contact moved to a different campaign after booking. Does the owner still get the request?
Yes. The setting is deal-wide, so the meeting still qualifies whichever of the client's campaigns the contact is in now. The owner gets only one request (and at most one reminder) per meeting.
Does a test outcome form update SalesHive?
No. A test is a safe preview and does not update SalesHive.
Can a client report the outcome later instead of using the request?
Yes. Select the Update Meeting Outcome API link in the Owner experience note to open its developer documentation. With an API key, a client can send the outcome whenever their own follow-up is done. The API keeps its fuller documented outcome list, so it can record outcomes the form does not offer. It updates the meeting, fires the Zapier meeting-outcome event and notifies the SalesHive team. Notes are added to the end of Sales Rep Notes rather than replacing them. The API link is not shown in a self-serve workspace.
Can a client change these settings?
No. Client users can review the settings, but only SalesHive team members can turn the request on, switch between email and Slack, or change the wording. A note at the top, beside the Owner outcome email switch, says so, and the controls are greyed out. In a self-serve workspace, a submitted outcome updates the meeting in that workspace, and the page suggests using Get help if you want the email turned on or changed.
Where did this setting move from?
It moved from Campaign Detail settings to the selected deal's Meeting Settings, so all of that client's eligible campaigns use one configuration.
Why does this link open the meeting-owner directory?
Internal SDRs receive a read-only Meeting Settings directory instead of reminder or outcome-email controls. Ask your manager or strategist to change these settings or arrange a test. This does not disable reminders already configured for the client.
Why are outcome requests on when nobody turned them on?
Managed clients (Active or Onboarding clients that are not platform-only) get owner outcome requests by default. They start at the next automatic check and cover only meetings scheduled after that, so nothing is backfilled. To stop them for one client, turn off Owner outcome email and select Save settings. Self-serve, platform-only, paused, ended, archived and internal workspaces do not get default requests.
