A CRM Form Builder for Lead Forms

Design a lead form in minutes, preview it live, and connect every submission straight to the right product, project or service in your CRM.

The short answer

What is a CRM form builder?

A CRM form builder creates web forms whose submissions go straight into your CRM as leads, not into an inbox. In AliveCRM you drag fields onto the form, mark which are required, set the button and thank-you message, and link the form to a product, project or service and a lead source.

This page covers designing one form well. To see how to run a set of forms across a whole website, read our website forms page; for the wider picture of capturing leads, see lead capture.

What makes a lead form work

  • It asks only for what the team will use on the first call.
  • It looks like part of your site, not a bolt-on.
  • It tells the visitor what happens next.
  • It lands in the CRM with its source and offer attached.

How It Works

Fields

Drag Fields Onto the Form

Choose from name, email, phone, company, position, address, city, state, country, zip, lead value, description, date and time, and file upload, plus headers and paragraphs for instructions. Mark each field required or optional and watch the live preview update.

  • Drag-and-drop field placement
  • Required and optional fields
  • Live preview while you build

Style

Make It Look Like Your Site

Set the button text and colours, and after a submission either show your own thank-you message or send the visitor to a page you choose. Add your Google Tag Manager code to the form so each submission can count as a conversion.

  • Button text and colours
  • Thank-you message or redirect URL
  • Google Tag Manager code per form

Context

Link Each Form to an Offer

Each form belongs to one product, service or project and one lead source. Every submission arrives as a lead with that context and the page the form was on, so you can report on leads per item and per channel later.

  • One item and one source per form
  • Source page saved on every lead
  • Separate forms per offer

Edit

Change the Form Without Touching Your Site

The embed script loads the form from AliveCRM, so you can edit fields, text and colours any time and the live form updates on its own. Check the result in the preview first, then publish.

  • Edits go live without re-embedding
  • Preview before publishing
  • One script tag per form

Who It Is For

Who Builds Forms in AliveCRM

Small business owners

Honest limits

What the Form Builder Does Not Do

The form builder is made for lead forms. It does not build multi-page surveys, quizzes, payment forms or conditional questions, and one form cannot cover several products at once. The forms do not include a captcha; submissions are rate-limited and checked for duplicates instead.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

No. You build the form by dragging fields and setting options, then paste one script tag into your page. No HTML or developer is needed. If your website lets you add a block of custom code, or you use Google Tag Manager or WordPress, you can publish the form yourself.
