Using forms enables lead generation, and engaging with leads, customers, and your team.
Each form consists of two components: the Form Editor and Form Settings.
In the Form Editor, you have access to a wide range of form fields to meet your specific requirements. The default fields include Name, phone number, email address, and a message field. You can add additional message fields or delete existing ones. Additionally, you have the ability to make certain fields mandatory or optional, and you can edit the text inside each field.
Within the Form Settings, you can change the text on the "Submit" button and the "Thank you" message, which will appear after submitting the form. Furthermore, you can customize the email address to which the responses will be sent.
Form responses will be sent to the email address associated with your Boards account, or any other email address you will set in the Form settings.
