The Problem
When lead capture requires manual processing, friction slows down your sales cycle:
- Delayed follow-up: Leads sit in website forms until someone manually transfers them to CRM
- Lost leads: Form submissions fall through cracks during busy periods
- Incomplete data: Manual entry introduces errors and omits important context
- No source tracking: Difficult to attribute leads to specific campaigns or content
- Sales friction: Team waits for leads instead of receiving them instantly
Every hour between form submission and sales contact reduces conversion probability.
How I Solve It
I build automated lead capture systems that connect your website forms directly to your sales and marketing infrastructure:
