Layout Tab
The options you see during setup may change depending on the Capture Type you've chosen, below is a guide to help you understand what each of the configuration options does.
The Layout tab allows you to:
- Give the Capture a name
- Choose your Type
- Choose your Layout
- Choose your Variation
Once you choose the Variation you want to use you will then see a few additional options:
Use this option if you just want to capture email addresses without the user providing their name.
This would allow you to do things like:
- Get more users onto your email list
- Popup a special offer when users visit your site for the first time
- Popup a coupon code when users are about to leave your site
- Allow users to register for a Webinar with just their email address
- Allow users to access whitepapers or other content
- Personalized popups based on which social network the user arrives from
Use this option is you want to also capture a name + an email address.
We will automatically handle if a user users their first name or full name when we sync it with your email provider.
This is a powerful feature that is often overlooked, but if you use Captures for clicks it opens up possibilities for personalization on your site. For example you could use it to:
- Redirect users to your Competition
- Alert users that you ship to certain countries
- Let users know when a product is out of stock
- Let users know when there's a sale on
- Let users know you support a certain language
Some Variations have the ability to enable a Call to Action which allows offers a more conversational way for users to either opt-in or decline to opt-in.
Two Step Captures allow you to have multiple steps, the first offers the ability to ask a question, then the second step facilitates the opt-in. Both steps can have different messaging.
