Before starting with your ad campaigns and creating and designing your flow, you need to be clear about your brand’s positioning. Analyze competitors in the same market, e.g. search for similar ads in the Meta Ad Library.

Make sure to understand your audience and their pain points to offer benefits that are highly attractive to leads or applicants. You need to know your buyer persona in order to create USPs (Unique selling points) that make you stand out in the market.

Being clear about your offer, you can start thinking about where to place your ads. The most popular advertising platforms can be found within paid search ads (e.g. Google Ads) and paid social ads (e.g. Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok).

Also, you can start creating different ad content, starting with the ad copy. Make sure the text is easy to read and understand, and aligned with the content that follows in your flow. You can use AI for inspiration, e.g. ChatGPT. Also, the ad creative, including images and videos, should be as authentic as possible. Try to avoid stock images and get some help from design tools, e.g. Canva, to build a unique ad creative that appeals to your users and makes them click.

Another important topic to include when launching successful ads is tracking. You can use our different tracking & analytics integrations to dive into remarketing and target users based on their previous behavior.

Unlike a simple form, a flow is not limited to one page, but has the questions split up onto several screens, making it feel more like an interactive experience and thus, increasing the user engagement and conversion rates.

To keep drop-off rates as low as possible, you should adhere to simple best practices in your flow. A good structure and other tips & tricks help you to optimize your conversion rate and receive qualified leads or applications.

Before users go through your flow, you may first need to convince them of your product, service, or company. A landing page offers you the opportunity to do just that with trust elements such as benefits, reviews, and logos.

Compared to a homepage, a landing page pursues a specific goal and offers fewer navigation options, as the focus is on the offer or application. The content of the page is specifically designed for conversion.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of flows and lead generation, understanding user behavior is key to success.

Once your flow receives visits and responses, Heyflow's built-in analytics tab, as well as external analytics tools, can provide invaluable data. From the number of screen views, submits, used devices and drop-offs, to clicks on specific buttons or the duration users spend on each step, these insights offer a detailed understanding of user journeys and help to improve the performance of your flow.

Staying ahead of the curve and following up quickly on your generated leads or applicants requires innovative solutions that seamlessly integrate into your workflow.

Heyflow simplifies this automation process by providing a diverse range of response handlers and integrations. From native integrations like HubSpot or Salesforce to the innovative Agency Portal and the utilization of webhooks, Heyflow has you covered!
