Salesforce Booking Page Integration

Auto-convert Salesforce Leads to Opportunities when they book an appointment via an Apptoto booking page.

To enhance Apptoto’s Salesforce integration, we’ve made it possible to convert Salesforce leads to Salesforce opportunities automatically. Now, after a Salesforce lead books an appointment with you via an Apptoto booking page, you can choose to have them convert to an opportunity instantly.

Converting a Salesforce lead to an opportunity after an appointment booking

1. If you have not already, be sure to sync your Salesforce Calendars to Apptoto

2. Add your Salesforce Leads Address Book to Apptoto

   Caution

   Your Salesforce Contact Address Book is added automatically, but your Leads address book is required for this process.

3. Navigate to the Booking Page tab in Apptoto.

4. Set your booking page settings (such as appearance, appointment types, form fields, etc.) as needed.

5. On the Availability tab, ensure your Calendar is set to sync to a Salesforce Calendar.

6. On the Address Book tab, set your Address Book to your Salesforce Leads address book you synced in step 2.

7. After you complete the previous step, a checkbox will appear. Click the checkbox to enable Convert Salesforce Leads to Opportunities upon Booking.

8. A New Lead Status (After Conversion): field will appear. Enter the name your business uses when a qualified lead is converted to an opportunity in Salesforce.

9. Click Create to launch your new booking page.

Warning

Apptoto will default to using the name “Closed – Converted” in the “New Lead Status (After Conversion):” field. You must update this field to the naming convention your company uses in Salesforce for a Converted lead. If you’re unsure of what naming convention your business uses, follow the directions below.
