When to use it, when not to

Use it

  • Use when the demo request page is a distinct, trackable URL and the form on it is the only path to becoming a demo-request lead.
  • Use it to offer a lower-friction alternative (a recorded demo, a shorter form, a chat option), not to re-push the same form that already did not convert.

Skip it

  • Do not use it if the demo page also serves anonymous, unidentified traffic almost exclusively. This workflow only reaches contacts who are already known, cookied visitors.
  • Do not run this on a contact who did submit the form. That handoff belongs to lead-routing, which should own fast follow-up for actual demo requests; this fiche is for the ones who did not finish.
