Capture and qualify leads without friction 

In the time it usually takes you to hop on the phone or email back and forth to learn more about leads, they’re likely to drop off. Plus, it’s more work for you. Instead, lead forms enable you to make the most of your marketing efforts by capturing and qualifying leads immediately, then turning them into client relationships. 

Similarly, you can also create a frictionless experience for returning clients. By sending them to your lead form, they can easily book another service or package with you instead of reaching out and waiting to book again.

Start by creating a lead form template that includes qualifying questions, like budget, timeline, and needs. Using the design and customization options, you can adjust your lead form to match the same look and feel as the rest of your website.

You can also customize your lead forms to include text, images, and videos in order to offer more information upfront and help new leads determine if they’re fit for your services before they inquire. 

More robust than standard contact forms, yet easier to create and manage than a web page, you’ll bring in higher-quality leads with a more professional, interactive experience. 

Here are some examples of how you can enhance your lead qualification with lead forms: 

• Ask qualifying questions right before providing your scheduler to gather more information and schedule a call in one step.
• Include a video with more information about your services so new leads have more information before submitting answers to your questions.
• Create a unique lead form for each client to provide a more personalized intake experience for leads you’ve already qualified.

Convert leads directly from your website or other channels

Customizable lead forms also let you include actions like selecting services, scheduling, and paying. This means you can convert leads directly from your website or other channels. 

In any scenario where you want to convert leads instantly, lead forms enable you to do so. As a result, clients can move forward without any friction. You can link your lead forms from your website, add them to your Instagram bio, include a link in your email signature, and more. 

Within HoneyBook, lead forms are easy to build and personalize. You can start from a template, then add your branding and edit the template to ensure your leads are moving through your clientflow in the order of steps that make sense for your business.

Here are some examples of the ways you can use lead forms in your channels: 

• Schedule one-time sessions directly from the link in your bio
• Offer a robust inquiry form on each of your service pages
• Link your lead form to a button on your website to book and accept payment for a consultation call, mini-session, or project
• Sell a digital product by linking to your lead form throughout your website and content
• Send a direct link via email to book a speaking engagement
• Send a link through LinkedIn to capture more information about a partnership opportunity
• Include a testimonial collecting form in your follow-up email once a project is completed

Book new leads instantly without creating a project upfront

If you don’t require any touchpoints before booking with clients, lead forms let them book with you on their own while you focus on other parts of your business. There’s no need to interact with the client or invest time on administrative work like setting up a new project in HoneyBook. Instead, your lead form will automatically create a project in HoneyBook with all the information you need. 

Whether you’re booking a long-term project, a paid consultation call, a one-time session, or other, it can happen at the same time as the initial inquiry. Just include an invoice and payment block within your lead form to enable booking. You can also include a services block so clients can select their services first before paying a dynamic invoice that includes their selections. 

Lead forms also work with HoneyBook automations, so you can immediately move forward with the next steps after booking to save even more time. 

For example, whenever someone books a session with you, your lead form can automate an email that sends any materials they need. Once the session ends, it can also trigger a thank you email with your scheduler link to book another session. You can also automate confirmation emails, welcome packets, links to your digital products, and more.
