Overview
Olark is a live chat software product that lets support and sales teams add a chat widget to their website for real-time visitor conversations, mainly used by small and mid-size online businesses.
HelloGrowthCRM does not have a native Olark connector yet — it is on the helpdesk / customer success list of planned integrations. That does not mean the two cannot work together today.
Olark has a public Zapier app for new chat transcripts, so a team can connect it to HelloGrowthCRM through Zapier, or use Olark's webhook-style transcript forwarding with Make or n8n for more control.
What a Olark link would do
- A new Olark chat from an unrecognised visitor creates a lead with the transcript logged on the contact's activity timeline.
- An Olark chat tagged as a sales inquiry creates a task for a rep to follow up within the day.
- A visitor providing an email in an Olark chat updates the matching lead record with that email address.

Best practices
- Start with the one Olark event your team acts on most, send only that into HelloGrowthCRM, and check a week of records before adding more.
- Pick one matching key for Olark records — usually work email or phone — so an event updates the existing lead instead of creating a duplicate.
- Name an owner for the Olark connection: whoever set up the webhook or Zap should also be the person who notices when it stops.
