We’re thrilled to announce an exciting new feature from HighLevel that will elevate the quality of your leads and enhance the reliability of your data. This feature, called email verification, is now available for both forms and surveys. Here’s a detailed look at how it works and why it’s a game-changer for your lead generation efforts.
What is Email Verification?
Email verification is a new functionality designed to ensure that the email addresses entered into your forms and surveys are valid and active. By requiring users to verify their email addresses, you can significantly reduce the number of fake or invalid email entries. This is particularly useful for businesses that rely on high-quality leads and want to maintain a clean and effective email list.
How Does It Work?
The process of email verification is straightforward and user-friendly. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
- Add an Email Field: Start by dragging an email field into your form or survey. You can see this on the screen.
- Enable Email Validation: Turn on the “Validate Email” option. This will create a “Verify Email” button within your form.
- User Interaction: When a user fills out the form, they will be prompted to click the “Verify Email” button.
- Email with Verification Code: The user will receive an email containing a unique verification code.
- Confirm the Code: The user returns to the form, enters the verification code, and submits the form. The system then verifies the email and allows the form submission.
Once verified, the form will indicate that the email is validated, providing a clear signal that the lead is genuine.
Benefits of Email Verification
The email verification feature offers several significant advantages:
1. Ensures Lead Quality: By verifying email addresses, you can be more confident that the leads you receive are legitimate and of high quality.
2. Reduces Fake Entries: This additional step helps filter out fake leads, ensuring that only serious and valid email addresses are submitted.
3. Protects Against Bots: Email verification adds a layer of protection against bot submissions, which often flood forms with invalid data.
4. Enhances Email Campaigns: With a verified email list, your email marketing campaigns are likely to see better engagement rates and lower bounce rates.
5. Builds Trust: Demonstrating that you care about the authenticity of your interactions can help build trust with your audience.
Use Cases
This feature is particularly useful in scenarios where email quality is crucial. For instance:
- High-Stakes Forms: If you’re collecting information for a high-value offer or a critical survey, ensuring the validity of email addresses is vital.
- Event Registrations: When hosting events, having verified email addresses can improve communication and attendance rates.
- Lead Generation Campaigns: For campaigns where lead quality directly impacts sales and follow-ups, email verification is invaluable.
How to Get Started
To enable this feature:
- Navigate to the settings inside your sub-account.
- Go to the “Labs” section and turn on the email verification feature.
