About this template

A marketing agency inquiry form is the most important conversion tool on your agency website — and most agencies underestimate what it can do beyond collecting a name and email. A well-designed inquiry form pre-qualifies leads, surfaces the client's real pain points, and gives your sales team enough context to send a relevant proposal without a 45-minute discovery call that could have been avoided.

The questions that matter most are the ones about budget and timeline. Asking for a monthly budget range upfront isn't rude — it's respectful of everyone's time. Prospects who see your budget tiers and still fill out the form are self-selecting as serious buyers. The same is true for timeline: 'just exploring' inquiries can be nurtured differently from 'need to start immediately' leads.

formformform makes it easy to put this form on your website and track every submission in one place. You can review the pipeline of inquiries by budget tier, sort by start timeline, and prioritize follow-up without managing a CRM. And because formformform sends instant email notifications, your sales team can respond to hot leads before competitors do.

Best practices for your marketing agency inquiry

Show your budget tiers

clients who see your pricing structure and still inquire are significantly more qualified than those who fill out a generic contact form.

Ask about current agency relationships

prospects switching from a competitor are already sold on the value of agency services; you just need to win the comparison.

Make '6-month goals' required

vague inquiries from prospects who can't articulate a goal rarely convert; this field filters them out early.

Respond within 2 hours

agency sales cycles are competitive; the first agency to respond with a relevant reply wins a disproportionate share of deals.

Use the industry field to assign to specialists

if you have team members with vertical expertise, route tech inquiries to one account manager and e-commerce to another.

Review monthly

analyze inquiry submissions for patterns in services requested and budget ranges to inform your positioning and pricing strategy.

Frequently asked questions

Should I make the budget field required? +

We recommend it. Making budget required eliminates the awkward conversation later and ensures your team only invests time in leads that can afford your services. Prospects who abandon because of a budget question weren't the right fit anyway.

Can I add a field for the company website? +

Yes. Adding a short_text URL field for company website is a great idea — it lets your team research the prospect before the discovery call and shows up in your submission data alongside their challenges.

How do I stop competitors from filling out my inquiry form? +

You can't fully prevent it, but including a company website field and industry dropdown gives you enough context to identify suspicious submissions. formformform also lets you view submission metadata.

Can I send an automatic confirmation email to the person who inquires? +

formformform currently sends notifications to your team. For auto-responses to submitters, you can set up a simple email automation in your email platform triggered by a webhook from formformform submissions.

What's the best place to put this form on my agency website? +

The highest-converting placements are your homepage CTA section, your 'Services' page, and a dedicated 'Work with us' or 'Contact' page. Link to it from your navigation for maximum visibility.
