Creating an enquiry form

download Download PDF

An enquiry form is what a customer fills in. Everything downstream — routing, notifications, reporting — is configured on the form, so it is worth setting up properly once.

The basics

SettingWhat it does
Form nameHow you recognise it in the enquiry list and reports.
Enquiry subjectWhat the enquiry is called when it arrives.
Logo imageBranding on the form and its emails.
Notification email addressWhere enquiries go when no tribe is set.

One form per job

Separate forms for genuinely different things — a general enquiry, a quote request, a careers enquiry. The form is a reporting dimension, so a single catch-all form means you can never tell which of your pages actually produces business.

What to configure next

  1. The fields you ask for.
  2. The notifications — who is told, and what the customer receives.
  3. The thank you page.
  4. The categories and lifecycle stage people are given when they enquire.
TEST IT BY SUBMITTING ONE
Fill the form in yourself before it goes on a live page. Check the enquiry arrives, the notification reaches a real person, and the customer email reads properly — all three fail silently otherwise.
