# How Can I Automate Lead Capture From a Website Form?

You automate lead capture by connecting a web form directly to a CRM table, so every submission creates a lead record automatically, with no one copying data by hand. On **Jestor**, this runs through native **Forms** connected to the **CRM**.

Leads submitted through a website contact form often sit in an inbox until someone remembers to enter them into the CRM, and by then the lead may have already looked elsewhere.

## What manual lead entry from forms costs

- Delay between a form submission and the lead actually reaching the CRM
- Risk of a submission being missed entirely in a busy inbox
- Inconsistent data entry depending on who transcribes the submission
- No immediate notification to the sales team about a new lead

## How automated lead capture works

- A **form** embedded on the website submits directly into a CRM table
- Each submission creates a new lead record instantly, without manual entry
- Automations can notify the assigned rep the moment a lead arrives
- The lead can be routed automatically based on criteria like region or product

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- The direct connection between form and CRM removes the manual entry step
- Instant notification means reps follow up while the lead is still warm
- Automated routing ensures the right person sees the lead immediately
- This scales from occasional form submissions to high website traffic volume

| Manual entry                | Automated capture                    |
| --------------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| Delay, risk of missed leads | Instant record, instant notification |
