LEAD INTAKE · Workflow idea
For a business with a disclosed contact form and an authorized CRM, validate required fields and organize permitted campaign attribution before proposing a lead record. A public form can be abused, contain malicious text, or submit someone else’s details. Authenticate the form endpoint, minimize personal fields, validate and normalize inputs, respect contact preferences, and require an owner to approve any CRM write or follow-up beyond the requested inquiry.
