How to share Google Lead Form with CRM
Please notice that Google Ads is not a CRM. The storage period is 30 days only, after the leads will be deleted. That means you need to download leads regularly.
You can download Google Ads Leads manually or automate the processes.
Manual downloading. You or your company managers will regularly log in the Ads account to download files, open them on your computer and transfer data to CRM.
The manual downloading has drawbacks:
- Time-consuming. If you have one campaign and several leads per day, it is not difficult to transfer data manually. But in case of several campaigns and tens or even hundreds of leads, data transferring will take lots of time.
- Errors risk. You may transfer data on the wrong row and you won’t even notice it. The error will be detected only during the call to clients. Thus, the incorrect information has to be searched and corrected.
- Slow response — clients leave. It can take several hours from the moment the data is downloaded to the moment the sales manager sees a new lead in CRM. During this time, the client will look through other offers and may write to your competitors. If a competitor responds faster, you will lose your order.
