In today's digital marketing landscape, capturing and managing leads efficiently is crucial for success. LinkedIn Forms offer a powerful way to gather potential client information directly from your LinkedIn campaigns. However, manually exporting this data can be time-consuming and prone to errors. Fortunately, tools like Make (formerly Integromat) enable you to automate this process seamlessly, syncing your LinkedIn leads directly into Google Sheets in just minutes.

Why Automate Lead Management?

Manual data entry can lead to delays, inaccuracies, and lost opportunities. Automation ensures that your lead data is captured instantly, stored securely, and ready for analysis. This allows your sales team to follow up promptly and helps marketing teams optimize campaigns based on real-time data.

Prerequisites for Setting Up the Integration

  • A LinkedIn account with active Lead Gen Forms
  • A Google account with access to Google Sheets
  • An account on Make (Integromat)
  • A Google Sheet prepared to receive lead data

Step-by-Step Guide to Sync Leads

1. Create a Google Sheet

Set up a new Google Sheet with columns matching the data fields from your LinkedIn Lead Forms, such as Name, Email, Company, and Phone Number.

2. Set Up a Make Scenario

Log in to your Make account and create a new scenario. Choose LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms as the trigger module.

3. Connect Your LinkedIn Account

Authorize Make to access your LinkedIn account. Select the specific Lead Gen Form you want to monitor for new submissions.

4. Add Google Sheets Module

Insert a Google Sheets module and connect your Google account. Configure it to add a new row to your prepared sheet whenever a new lead is captured.

5. Map the Data Fields

Map the fields from the LinkedIn lead form to the corresponding columns in your Google Sheet. Ensure all relevant data is captured accurately.

Finalizing and Testing the Automation

Save your scenario and run a test submission on your LinkedIn Lead Gen Form. Check your Google Sheet to confirm that the lead data appears correctly. Once verified, activate the scenario to run automatically.
