Jotform is a platform for creating custom web forms. Get started for free by signing up on jotform.com.

Jotform is great for: 

  • Embedding forms on your website and having those entries flow into Follow Up Boss.
  • Distributing manually entered leads to agents via Round Robin or First to Claim. (E.g. Phone leads, people you meet in person or at events, etc.)
  • Quick forms that can be used as simple landing pages.
  • In-person client intake.
