Marketing teams today aren’t struggling because their lead magnets are weak and they’re struggling because the process around them creates too much friction. Prospects still bounce from landing pages to long forms, to email inboxes, to PDF downloads before they ever reach your actual content.
What teams really want is simple:
This is exactly where in-context lead forms become transformative for generating leads. And it doesn’t matter if your digital content is a catalog, a brochure, a case study, a course manual, or a visual magazine; every type of content performs better when users can engage first and convert inside it. In-context lead capture works across all formats because the form appears when attention is already close, no matter the subject matter.
This is the gap Flipsnack fills. By embedding lead forms directly into your digital flipbooks and syncing every submission and engagement metric into your HubSpot or Salesforce, Flipsnack removes friction, boosts conversions, and turns your content into a true revenue engine.
An in-context lead form is a prospect who submits their details directly inside the content they’re engaging with, right at the moment interest is highest. No landing pages, no redirects, just a natural conversion within the flipbook itself. This approach fits perfectly into broader form-based lead strategies, especially when paired with best practices around form length, placement, and qualification that modern marketing teams rely on.
The traditional lead generation model has barely changed in a decade:
Ad → Landing page → Big form → Email → PDF download → Hope they read it
This flow is slow, disjointed, and built for a different era. Every step creates a drop-off:
Meanwhile, teams are left guessing:
Traffic goes up. Submissions don’t. Engagement metrics remain blind spots.
And the CRM only captures the form, not the behavior behind it.
Buyers today expect instant access. They want to explore content before committing, not the other way around. Traditional gating works against this reality, which is why conversion rates remain stubborn.
In-context lead capture flips the funnel by moving the conversion moment directly inside the content itself, placing the form exactly where the reader is already engaged. This removes most of the friction created by landing pages and downloads, captures genuine buying intent, and creates a far more intuitive user experience.
It also unlocks meaningful engagement data and turns your content into a true pipeline generator by showing sales who viewed what and for how long. It’s the most natural alignment between how people consume content and how businesses collect leads.
Most teams don’t just have one challenge; they have two when it comes to in-context forms.
This happens when prospects drop off before they ever reach your content. Landing pages, long forms, email confirmations, and PDF downloads create friction at every step. Even when someone does convert, you lose visibility into what they actually engaged with. You’re left with a name in the CRM, but no context.
Embedding forms inside digital content solves this. It shifts the conversion moment into the experience itself, capturing leads at the height of their interest. No redirects. No inbox hunting. No drop-off. Just a simple, native moment of conversion while the user is already engaged.
Even when you capture leads successfully, teams often face a second barrier: getting that data into the CRM in a clean, automated, and actionable way. Many rely on Zapier, CSV imports, or manual syncing just to get form submissions into Salesforce or HubSpot. And even then, the CRM rarely shows the full picture. Teams want to know:
They also want to trigger workflows based on this behavior: better nurturing, smarter scoring, faster sales follow-up. Without native integration, this operational layer becomes a bottleneck.
Embedding forms inside your content solves the conversion problem. Connecting those forms to your CRM solves the operational one. Teams in marketing and sales want three simple things:
Flipsnack’s native integrations with Salesforce and HubSpot deliver all of this, turning your interactive content into a fully connected part of your revenue engine.
Flipsnack’s native integrations with Salesforce and HubSpot make it easy to capture leads directly inside your flipbooks and send them straight into your CRM, and no manual exports, no extra landing pages. The process for both platforms follows the same simple pattern: add a lead form, connect your account, map your fields, and test.
Below is your unified setup guide for both Salesforce and HubSpot in Flipsnack:
Make an account in Flipsnack, upload your content, and go to Customize preview. Scroll down to the Lead Form section.
Enable the form and add your fields, title, button text, and GDPR/privacy details. Choose the exact page where the form should appear.
Tip: Place the form a few pages in to capture higher-intent leads.
Inside the Lead Form panel, toggle the CRM you want to connect:
After approval, you’ll return to Flipsnack, and the integration will be active.
Note: You can also manage connections globally via Settings → Integrations → Salesforce / HubSpot
Once connected, you’ll see a field-mapping panel.
Match each Flipsnack form field to a CRM field. Salesforce supports standard + custom fields and HubSpot supports contact properties. Use the search bar to quickly find the right fields. And then simply click on save changes when you’re done.
Once everything is connected, run a quick test to make sure your setup is good to go. Preview your flipbook, submit a test form using a test email, and then check your CRM.
In Salesforce, you should see a new entry under Leads, and in HubSpot, the new contact will appear with “Flipsnack integration” listed as the record source.
If it shows up, your integration is working, and you’re all set to start capturing real leads directly from your content.
The way buyers consume content has changed, and the tools used to capture, track, and qualify those buyers must change with it. Traditional lead magnets, landing pages, and PDF downloads no longer match the speed or expectations of today’s buyers. What teams need is simple: a seamless way to capture leads in the moment they’re most engaged, paired with a CRM workflow that actually reflects how people interact with digital content.
