If you're a LeadPages user and want to have the LeadLinks feature pushed to ConvertKit, it's very doable. You just need to swap some of the default Form variables with ConvertKit's!
Here's how:
In your LeadLinks options, make sure you have "Custom" selected from the dropdown menu.
After you've selected "Custom", the link below will be editable. Here's where ConvertKit comes in.
Following the number string (...7520) in the example above, swap in these variables:
/?name=#{{subscriber.first_name}}/email=#{{subscriber.email_address}}
Note that your link's number string will be different than the example above. Don't change or edit your number—just the information following it.
That's it.
You can share this link in any email you send from ConvertKit to gather new Subscribers. All the reader will need to do is click!
For backup, check the Lead Notifications option on integrations, which will notify you when there's a new subscriber.
One other thing: did you know ConvertKit has a similar, easier function?
LeadLinks are normally used to add a Subscriber to a list or Segment, without entering their email address a second time. (Because who likes that? No one.)
With ConvertKit, that magic is coded in.
Use Case #1 - Webinar Signup
You have a webinar approaching, and you want people to register. Instead of asking your Subscribers to enter their email again, on a Form, create a Link Trigger in Automations > Rules!
Here's an example:
Use Case #2 - Product Interest
You are going through a product launch, and sending emails to your list. Create a Trigger for the sales link, so you know who has expressed interest, but hasn't yet purchased. Later, you can send an email specifically to this group (or Segment), while excluding the buyers!
You can also do this with Link Triggers. All with one click!
