## Real-World Example

If you tag a Facebook lead as *“Booked Call”* inside Genius Messenger, GoHighLevel instantly updates the same contact’s stage and adds the conversation to your pipeline.  
From there, you can trigger automations like appointment reminders, follow-ups, or lead scoring — all managed within GHL.
