When to use client intake forms

You need goals, background, files, timing, and contact preferences before the next step.
The enquiry may lead to a call, quote, onboarding task, or project review.
You want the submitted context to stay attached to one response.

Not for: Use lead capture for initial interest. Use a quote request form when pricing inputs are the main purpose.

Important: Ask for access requirements or account names when needed, but do not request passwords, secret keys, or other credentials through the form.

From submission to the next step
