Lead Form Ad

Also: Lead gen form; Instant form

An ad that opens a form inside the platform, prefilled from the user's profile, instead of sending the user to a landing page. Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Google (lead form assets) all offer it. Lead forms produce more leads at lower cost than landing pages and lower-intent leads on average; the difference is settled by integrating the form with the CRM and measuring downstream.
