Associating Web Leads to a Campaign Print E-mail

We recently decsribed the process of setting up web-to-lead forms on your website.  In addition, it is also quite simple to auto-associate inbound leads to a Campaign.  Every Campaign record in Salesforce has a unique ID, which can be found by looking at the Camapign detail record:

Campaignid

Once you have the Campaign ID, simply insert an additional "hidden" field in your web-to-lead form that passes the campaign ID along with the form submission.

Webtolead_campaign_id

Republish your enhanced form to your website and Salesforce will take care of the rest!  Every new lead submission from this form will be automatically associated to your Campaign.

Additionally, we recommend creating unique landing pages for every marketing program.  This will allow you to optimize conversion rate by custom tailoring a landing pages to the offer(s) you present in your targeted email, advertising, events, or other.  Every landing page can contain unique Campaign ID field and auto-associate new leads to the appropriate Campaign.
