What is the best way to trigger Zaps from a "main" Zap?

Hello,

I have built a very complex Zap with 6 Paths which has a very large number of steps (60).

My idea was to either split these zaps into 5 smaller zaps to make them a little less complex, reduce the individual steps per zap and make them easier to edit. 

So my plan was to split the big Zap into 5 single Zaps and trigger the first main Zap from a new WooCommerce order (Save orders, invoice, customers etc. from WooCommerce to Zoho CRM). And the 4 other Zaps should be triggered from the main Zap with a Webhook or something like that. 

What would be the best way to trigger the other Zaps from the main Zap? Can I use webhooks (i.e. when the first (main) zap is completed then run a second and/or third Zap)?

Thanks for help
