IMPROVED LEAD GENERATION THROUGH INTERACTIVE MULTI STEP FORMS

To leave your competitors behind and attract new customers, you need to take care of automated lead generation of your website and make contacting them more pleasant. Multi step forms are much better for this than ordinary forms. Funnelforms helps you to easily create visually appealing contact forms and simplify the process of submission for the visitor – without overwhelming them. This includes a clear question and a well-defined choice of answers within the form. In addition, functions already integrated in the multi step form are also crucial, such as an automatic completion of addresses via Google Maps API or that of the text fields within the contact form.

Funnelforms is designed in each of its components to always achieve the optimal conversion rate on your website – even if you create a completely custom form. We believe that successful lead generation via website is the key to business success today. But we also believe that it should not require any programming or special knowledge for the user. That’s why our multi step form is packed with important features and details that make life easier for you and your website visitors.

THE MAGIC OF THE DRAG & DROP FORM BUILDER

The intuitive drag-and-drop form builder within the question, contact form, and form builder is the heart of your multi step form and is itself visually designed as a sequence or “funnel”. Additionally, the questions, contact forms, and appointment events available here can be categorized and assigned to specific forms. This way you never lose track of your queries and their structure.

In the form builder, you link all your questions, contact forms, appointment events and redirects by drag and drop one after the other, so that a flow is created for your visitors and thanks to the integrated logic, all important questions are asked at the right time. In this way, based on his previous answer, the website visitor will only be asked questions that make sense to his answer in the following and thus lead him to the completion – this sales-psychological element of mutual dialogue extremely helps to increase your success in lead generation by a significant amount. The visual representation of the multi step form in the form builder itself makes the creation of the funnel much easier and the user only has to click through.

Check out the Quick Start Guide below to learn how to create your first multi step contact form:

DATA PROTECTION FROM THE GROUND UP AS STANDARD

Funnelforms’ contact form is GDPR compliant according to current, Europe-wide data protection law – which is mainly due to its technical structure and because it is installed locally on the WordPress system.

A major difference to comparable form builders available on the market is that Funnelforms, as an external plugin, does not process or store any data on its own or third-party servers. All leads and personal customer or appointment data is exclusively available to you. All personal data is stored on your web server, in your WordPress database and in the form of leads on your WordPress website and does not leave this closed system.

In the Pro version of the multi step form, connections to iCloud, Google Calendar, Outlook, Exchange and Office 365 can be established via the appointment booking to offer synchronization and automatic entry into the respective calendars. Through the many integrations that can be connected after submitting the contact form, only data selected by you will be sent to these respective third-party tools. Each of these providers of calendars and integrations offers its own data protection standard.

ACHIEVE YOUR BUSINESS GOALS ACROSS INDUSTRIES

There is hardly any contact form plugin that can be used across so many industries and still achieve such accurate results. Funnelforms covers all major sources of lead generation in many different industries.

Clients range from web agencies, lawyers and accountants, car dealerships, coaches, service providers, financial companies, healthcare and nursing facilities, real estate agents, logistics companies and shipping companies, staffing agencies, travel providers and insurance companies. All these companies use the multi step form in different ways and for different purposes. Nevertheless, due to its unique design and psychologically meaningful structure, the form builder manages to achieve very good results in each area.

Personnel recruiters, for example, use the file upload to receive the applicant’s resume along with other data while filling out the form – service providers ask for the desired services in a structured manner and thus know exactly what the potential customer expects from them – coaches have their potential customers book appointments directly for a free preliminary meeting. You see, there are many good reasons to offer your website visitors a multi step form, even if you don’t believe it yet. You have a much better data base for collaboration and can automate many digital processes and your users stay engaged.

Take a look at the Examples page to see for yourself that Funnelforms contact form can be used in almost any industry where contacts of any kind need to be generated (lead generation, recruitment, pricing, appointment setting, service and product configuration).

FUNNELFORMS IS TOP-RATED WITH MANY 5 STARS ON TRUSTPILOT

We are proud that the Funnelforms contact form has already convinced so many customers and brought them further. The plugin has more than 150 reviews on Trustpilot with an average of 4.9 stars. You can see all reviews here. However, we would like to present you some insightful reviews from satisfied customers here now as well:

5 stars from Simon Krebs:

This tool is soo powerful!
I started with the first license 3 months ago and successfully upgraded to the 10 agency license today. The service is simply unbeatable and the pricing for such a powerful tool is a must-have.
This tool improves the conversion rate so much that it is almost criminal.

There is simply no wish left unfulfilled. Every problem is fixed, the staff is just there.

The software is incredibly accurate and well thought out.

I am so happy to have found this tool

5 stars from Andi:

How the hell is this possible!!!
I usually never write reviews on the internet and am more the silent customer. Here I am downright forced by my results to say something, better yet I have no choice at all!

Funnelforms purchased a few days ago, installed and license activated in less than 5 minutes. The tool? Can’t be beat for simplicity, intuitive and logical to use, all elements and buttons make sense where they are. Did it take me long to create my form? No.

Form was up and running within 2 hours on the same day. But 2 hours not because I was overwhelmed and didn’t find the functions right away, but because I took my time to create an absolutely awesome logic. So Funnelforms then went live on our website. We usually have between 3 and 5 requests per week. After going live of Funnelforms, say and write received 28 leads in the first week alone. I didn’t think this was possible – and now shut up: no junk! Flawless quality of leads, good accessibility, genuine interest. Of these leads, 6 have already been converted into customers and sales.

Again to let it sink in:

-Without changing the website
-Without increasing visitors or traffic to the website
-Without increasing the adspend
-Without creating new advertising campaigns

The only thing we did was replace our previous contact form with Funnelforms. I don’t know how you do it, but I am deeply convinced and can advise every company: Buy this software!!!

5 stars from Florian I.:

Perfect for all kind of forms with Funnel
Very very good form plugin, but actually it is much much more than that. We have been using the paid version for a while, but even now in the free version there are so many features unlocked that are really really great. Especially creating simple funnel forms is very fast and you don’t need hours of training. It is almost self-explanatory.
Top work and we are looking forward to updates.

FAQ

What is Funnelforms?

Funnelforms is a multi step form and contact form builder plugin for WordPress that allows you to create high-quality, sales-optimized drag and drop custom forms for your website. In addition to many integrations, automations, designs and templates, many small conversion-increasing elements are built right in. With the help of simple drag and drop form builders, you can easily create a high-converting contact form or quiz for your website visitors. Thanks to the modern, intuitive design and the logical sequence of the multi step form, your visitors interact more with you. It creates a dialogue in which the users contact you in a natural way through your website. The sales psychology conversation technique of mutual dialogue provides you with significantly better results than conventional contact forms.

How can I benefit from Funnelforms?

Funnelforms has one overall goal: increase inquiries and leads through your website. Used properly, you’ll definitely generate more pre-qualified customers and prospects with this contact form plugin. The design increases user interaction on your website and the likelihood of visitors filling it out is significantly higher than with a standard contact form such as Contact Form 7. Additionally, you benefit from many possible uses: Be it to receive more contact inquiries overall via your website, to pre-qualify suitable applicants in your recruiting process, to have products or services configured individually or to arrange appointments with interested parties. Furthermore, all data generated in these areas of application can be transferred to your tools, such as CRM or e-mail software, via integrations or webhooks and thus automated.

How can I create questions?

New questions can be easily created in the question editor. You just need to select your question type and then configure the question with its answers. Later on, you have the possibility to copy and edit already created questions and to create a conditional logic with the created questions in the form builder, i.e. a chain of questions and possible answers that build on each other (if A -> then B). The same applies to created contact forms, which are also created simply by drag & drop form builder.

What are the integrations to other tools?

Funnelforms offers you a wide range of integrations for data transfer to other tools. Some integrations are natively built into the contact form plugin, others can be found through major interface providers. The integrations include CRM management systems, email marketing programs, SMS verification and a custom webhook – here’s a brief overview:

CRM
* Hubspot
* Pipedrive
* Deals & Projects
* FinCRM

Email Marketing
* ActiveCampaign
* GetResponse
* Mailchimp
* KickTipp

SMS Verification

Automations

* Make

You can find an overview of all integrations on the Integrations page, we are also constantly developing the plugin so new integrations and automations are added all the time.

Is it difficult to set up the multi step form?

No, this custom form builder is very simple and easy to install. It can be found directly in the WordPress plugin repository and can be installed from there or downloaded and installed manually. For each step of the setup process you will find a checklist within the contact form plugin and additionally useful instructions and tutorials in the Help Center. If you still get stuck, our support team will be happy to help you via email or live chat.

What is the difference to other contact form plugins?

The main difference to comparable form plugins available on the market is that Funnelforms was explicitly designed to increase the conversion rate on your website. No other plugin is so focused on keeping the submission rate high, be it Contact Form 7, WPForms, Ninja Forms, Formidable Forms, Forminator or Ninja Forms. At the same time, it adds value to the user as they can click through many questions in the easiest way and manual entries are unnecessary. This saves time and facilitates the input. Through clearly defined and comprehensible logic for the user, a natural conversation structure can be recreated and the conversion rate of your contact form increases noticeably.

Is there a startup discount?

Of course! We are passionate about helping startups grow with our contact form! Have you started your business within the last 12 months? Contact our sales team directly via our website and get a permanent 20% discount on any license – before that, of course, the 30-day trial period still applies.

Is Funnelforms GDPR compliant?

Funnelforms is GDPR-compliant according to current, europe-wide data protection laws. A significant difference to comparable tools available on the market is that at no point is data processed or stored on our or third-party servers. All leads and personal customer data reside entirely on your website and your web server and do not leave this closed system. With the Pro version of the multi step form, connections to calendar providers such as iCloud, Google Calendar, Outlook, Office 365 and Exchange can be established when using the appointment booking feature to enable synchronization and integration with the respective calendars. Through the many integrations that can be connected to the contact form after submission, only the data you select will be sent to these respective third-party tools. However, each of these providers of calendars and integrations in turn offers its own data protection standard.

Can I customize the contact form to match the design of my website?

Yes, all steps of the multi step form as well as the contact form are 100% customizable to your corporate identity and website design. All colors, font sizes and fonts are freely configurable. Additionally, you can upload your own fonts via third-party plugins and use them for the form. You can also choose from different layouts for the appearance.

Is the multi step form also suitable for smartphones and tablets?

Yes, Funnelforms looks great on any device and is optimized for all device sizes. You also have the option to choose from different designs for the contact form layout. Options here are the classic tile view or the one-column or two-column list view, these can be selected separately for the desktop and mobile views.

What is the reseller license?

Funnelforms’ contact form is interesting for almost every industry and can especially help agency owners to increase the lead generation performance on their customer websites. Many agencies also use this opportunity for optimization work for their customers. With the reseller license you secure a license for 10 domains. You can resell these licenses to your clients at your own price and generate additional profits.

For me a feature or integration is missing, what now?

Don’t worry, we always try to meet our customers’ wishes and to develop the multi step form in the interest of our customers. You can easily suggest your feature via an internal feedback portal and let other customers rate and upvote it. After enough votes and a review we plan to include this feature within the next updates.
