We know we want to send emails to people who submit a form or complete a purchase, but how? Behold! Your guide to setting up a form/order automated journey. In this guide, "orders" will be treated as form submissions.

 

New Source

  1. Navigate to the CRM Contact Source for your connected form in CRM Settings.

    If using Marketing 360® Forms, you can also access these settings in the Leads inbox

  2. Set up Submission Rules in the source settings. You may need to go back to Settings if you don’t yet have the type/status/tag you’d like to use. Don’t forget to set the Duplicate Submission Rules too. Here are some examples below:
