Introduction

A lead form is a web form that helps capture data about leads (your potential customers). This data can include names, addresses, email IDs, etc. 
Google Lead Form Extensions are Google’s forms that capture user data when users search for your products or services on Google.
Customers can fill out these forms on Google Search, YouTube, and other Gmail platforms. Google Lead forms provide a wider customer reach and help collect voluminous data.

Integrating Google Lead Form Extensions with Vtiger CRM

When you integrate Google Lead Form Extensions with Vtiger CRM, you can:

  • Send out Google Lead Forms from ads.google.com
  • Collect and import lead data into the CRM

This integration helps you generate leads to enhance your businesses by propelling more conversions.  Extensive questionnaires in the forms can conveniently help you understand your customers and their product priorities.

Note: Only Admin users can set up the Google Lead Form Extensions Integration in Vtiger CRM. Only Admin users can create and post a Google Lead form.

 

Enabling Duplicate Prevention

When using Google Ads Lead forms, keeping your Leads and Contacts records up-to-date is important. 

Enabling the Duplicate Prevention checkbox helps ensure that if a customer or contact with an existing record in your CRM fills out a Google Ads Lead form, the CRM will update their existing record instead of creating a new one. This helps keep your CRM organized and avoids creating duplicate entries.

Note: If a contact who is already in your database fills out a Google Ads lead form, the sync or import process will ignore the record. You won't be notified if a customer adds new information or fills out a form.

Benefits of Google Lead Form Extensions Integration
