Link2Forms

Publish an online form/survey link and distribute that to the audience you wish to complete your form or survey. This link is generated by Link2forms, and can easily be included in your website, social media, or even email signature. You can even create a friendly URL name to make the form's address easier to remember if you wanted to publish it as a free-standing page.

Nothing worse then building & publishing a form only to have it overrun with bots that create fake contacts in your database with bogus responses. All our Forms/Surveys include a captcha at the bottom to safeguard your forms from such attacks.

Provide them the form or survey to complete online and have those responses automatically & securely added to the History of the contact, and then added the responders to a group in your Act! database that Link2forms created for that form. You can even prevent multiple submissions from the same person.

If the contact that completes a form/survey is in your database they are automatically added to the new Form group, and if they're not, they get created in Act! as a new contact and then added to the group. In cases of existing contacts, no field data gets overwritten.

Add an upload field to your form to support people uploading attachments like resumes, images, etc. The attachment is included with the same contact History as the text responses.

Easily map any number of primary contact fields from your database and select which one will be used for duplicate checking (typically email field). Forms soliciting feedback from existing contacts can use minimal fields, but ones where you're harvesting feedback from new contacts can include a more complete list of fields.

Get an instant email alert whenever a form or survey is completed, advising you of who provided the submission and what their responses were. The same information is written to the Contact History (including attachments) for more reliable record keeping.

Configure up to five nurture emails as a drip campaign after a contact completes a form. Imagine being able to send follow-up emails relating to the product or service they expressed interest in, and then schedule a follow-up after the drip campaign is complete.

Don't leave follow-ups to chance. Link2forms allows you to create a follow-up activity in Act! to ensure you never miss a lead generation opportunity. 

Feedback is of little value if it's difficult to parse or understand. Link2forms provides online reporting to help you analyze all your forms or survey results in a variety of chart formats or KPI's.

Many forms contain the same fields and structure, but are used for different purposes. If you want to create one product form for your website, you can easily duplicate that form for other products on your site, with each forms responses going into their respective Groups in Act!.

Link2forms works with Cloud databases using the WebAPI, and local databases using Act! Connect Link. As long as you have an Act! subscription, you can publish forms & surveys more successfully with less effort using Link2forms.

Choose from six different question types (single-line text, memo, single-select, and multi-select drop-down menus, checkbox, number, rating, rating with the slider, and file upload) for your form or survey, and easily manage their order of sorting. You can even use drop-down lists that support free-form content to capture those "Other" responses. Link2forms allows you to include a simple introduction at the beginning of your questions, and divide your form into sections with Section Headers.

Choose from three different design styles, using single or multiple columns, and control every design aspect of your form so it fits seamlessly into your website placement. You can even use our "Embed Code" feature to grab the custom code for iframes so the form auto-fits in both width and height to your page - even if you inserted it into a narrow column for a Call To Action form. Easily select background color, the number of columns to use, and how your questions will span across those columns. You can even incorporate a unique form-specific image to post at the top of the form/survey page.

If you have a contact in Act! that you'd like to load into an existing form, you can do that with Link2forms. With our new drip-campaign feature, users may want to add existing contacts to a form to enroll them in a Link2forms nurture campaign, and we've created a plugin to make that easy.
