Detailed instructions

1

Define the form's job

An intake form should support one decision: qualify, quote, schedule, route, or onboard.

Choose the purpose.
List the minimum required information.
Remove questions that do not affect the next step.
2

Add routing logic

Routing helps different inquiries go to the right next step without manual sorting.

Ask service needed, timeline, budget range, and urgency.
Tag leads by category.
Create a next action for each category.
3

Close the loop

Submitting a form should trigger a clear response so the customer knows what happens next.

Show a confirmation message.
Send an email with expectations.
Create a CRM record or task.
