What's included
This template includes nine pre-configured fields:
Full Name (Short Text)

Email Address (Short Text)
Primary contact method for follow-up. Used by sales teams to add leads to CRM systems and email sequences.

Service Needed (Dropdown)

Budget Range (Dropdown)
Qualifies purchasing power with four ranges: Under $5k, $5k-$20k, $20k-$50k, and Over $50k. Helps prioritize high-value opportunities.
Timeline (Radio Buttons)

Project Goals (Long Text)

This template is ideal for:
B2B SaaS companies selling to businesses of varying sizes. The company size and budget fields help segment leads for appropriate sales approaches and prioritize high-value opportunities.
Agencies and consultancies (marketing, development, design) that need to understand project scope before proposal. Timeline and goals fields reduce discovery calls.
Professional services firms that want to qualify leads before committing sales resources. Budget and timeline fields filter out tire-kickers and focus on serious prospects.

Customizing the template
Templates are starting points, not rigid structures. Common customizations:
Adjust budget ranges
Edit the Budget Range dropdown to match your pricing tiers. If you primarily serve enterprise, use ranges like "$50k-$100k", "$100k-$250k", "$250k+".
Modify service categories
Change "Service Needed" options to reflect your offerings. For example, a development agency might use "Web Development", "Mobile Apps", "API Integration", "Maintenance".
Add industry field
Include a dropdown for "Industry" (Healthcare, Finance, E-commerce, etc.) to better understand your lead's sector and tailor your pitch.
Include referral source
Add "How did you hear about us?" to track marketing channel effectiveness and optimize lead generation spend.
Expand or simplify
Remove budget/timeline fields if they create too much friction, or add fields like "Team Size", "Current Solution", or "Pain Points" for deeper qualification.
Best practices
Balance qualification with conversion: Every field adds friction. Use just enough fields to qualify leads without scaring them away. Start with this template and remove fields if submission rates drop.
Make budget and timeline optional: Some leads won't know these details yet. Marking them optional keeps the form accessible while still capturing data from those who can provide it.
Customize follow-up based on urgency: Route "Urgent" timeline submissions to sales immediately via notification rules or CRM integration. Follow up within 24 hours for qualified leads.
Use project goals for personalization: Reference the lead's stated goals in your first email. This shows you read their submission and care about their specific needs.
Test dropdown options with real leads: After your first 10-20 submissions, review common responses. If many leads select "Other", you're missing important categories.
