⚙️ The pop-up/modal box is another way of gathering leads or in other words, data of potential customers. If your lead clicks on your CTA-Button the pop-up window with the form will open.
Whenever you integrate a form into a modal box, a pop-up opt-in will be created, which you can use instead of a classic form. Of course, you are also welcome to use a classic form that is directly seen on the landing page. Read this article to find the instructions.
📌 Please note: Onepage does not provide an automated feature for displaying the modal on your page. The modal will only appear once the set-up button has been clicked.
Apart from lead forms, you can use a modal box to display important announcements or offer quick access to additional information without leaving the current page. It can also be used to showcase images, videos, or call-to-action buttons to boost engagement.
