How to Automatically Transfer Leads from Google Lead Form to Trello

Trello is a cloud platform for managing projects, workflows, and individual tasks, as well as coordinating team work. It is based on the Kanban visualization methodology. This service is best suited for startups and small companies. In our article, you will learn how to set up Google Lead Form integration with Trello to automate the transfer of leads from forms to this task manager for further work with them.

Google Lead Form is an effective lead generation tool that can be used to increase conversion rates. If you use it for marketing purposes and manage all work processes through the Trello task manager, most likely you manually create task cards for leads. By automating the manual transfer of lead data, you can eliminate one of the biggest time wasters in workflows. To achieve this, you need to link your Google Ads to your project and task management service.

Our codeless connector ApiX-Drive and the instructions we have compiled will help you connect both systems and automate the transfer of leads. When you set up Google Lead Form and Trello integration, you will see how the data of the new lead, sent through the form, appears in the task manager as a new card. After this, you will no longer need to manually enter the personal data of the buyer or customer (first and last name, phone number, email address, country of residence). As a result, ApiX-Drive will help you achieve a win-win situation. You will successfully optimize your business operations, and potential clients will be pleased with the quick feedback you can now provide them.

The interface and operating algorithm of the ApiX-Drive online connector are intuitive. The developers of this service made sure that interacting with it was easy and comfortable even for a completely inexperienced user. With its help, you can set up the connection you need in literally 5–10 minutes.

The Google Ads and Trello integration scheme looks like this: “data source – online connector – data receiver.” The ApiX-Drive system continuously monitors your lead form. As soon as new leads send their data through it, it is transferred directly to Trello and is issued there in the form of a card. To set up and start automatic data transfer, you will need to follow a few simple steps. Let's not delay and do this together with you right now.
