What is Google Lead Forms

These forms are highly customizable and can be tweaked as per your business requirement. Apart from basic information, you can add as many questions as you want to in the forms for the customers to fill in. You can make these forms available on different Google platforms like Google Search, YouTube, etc., and generate leads in high volumes. This allows you to reach a wider set of audience in a limited time.

You can add questions under different sections while creating your lead form. These sections will help you gather more details about your leads. You should add:
- Headline, business name, and a small description about your business.
- Contact Information like Name, Phone Number, and Email Id.
- Information like Company Name, Work Email, and Job Title.
- A form submission message once your customers submit the form like Thank You or We’ll contact you soon, etc.

In the end, you can preview your lead form, Submission Message, and the Ad for different Google platforms. This gives you an idea of how it appears for your customers and you can make necessary changes if needed.
2. Integrating Google Lead Forms with Vtiger CRM
Webhook URL is a significant part for syncing Google Lead Forms with Vtiger. You need to copy your webhook URL from Vtiger and paste it into Google Ads. It allows the CRM to capture information when users search for your products.
3. Preventing online attacks with Google Key
Just like Webhook URL, you should also copy Google Key from Vtiger and paste it into Google Ads section. It prevents cyber-attacks and provides a two-way verification.
4. Mapping form details to CRM fields
Using Field Mapping in Vtiger, you can map information from Google Forms to different CRM fields. You can only map customer information to the Contacts and Leads module in Vtiger.
For example, if a customer enters a phone number in the form, CRM will automatically capture it and add details in the phone number field of Vtiger. This ensures that data is directly imported into the Lead or Contact records in the CRM. You can also edit or delete the fields as per your choice.
5. Verifying data added to the CRM
You can verify if lead data is added to the CRM by searching for Google Leads in the Vtiger Contacts or Leads module. When you click on a record, the source will appear as Google Leads.
