Tips for creating forms that convert this Halloween

Tips for creating forms that convert this Halloween

From dressing up in creepy costumes to attending Halloween events, manage all your Halloween plans with online forms. Set the spooky mood and kick off the haunted holiday with some fresh out-of-the-box ideas for your online forms. With just a few changes to the existing forms on your webpages, you can capture the Halloween spirit, draw customer attention to your forms and BOOst conversions.

​

Dress up your brand logo

A logo embodies your brand's identity. With Zoho Forms' advanced theme builder, you can include your brand's logo on all your forms. Make alterations to your brand logo to depict something related to Halloween, such as pumpkins, ghosts, a witch hat, bats, or black cats. We leave it up to your imagination! Try using a creepy font style for your brand name and the form title.
   
  

Choose Halloween-themed form colors and backgrounds

List the colors that you think are appropriate for Halloween to give your form a spooky feeling. For example, consider a combination of red/orange/yellow text against a black background.
Choose a wallpaper with Halloween-themed elements such as witch hats, spider webs, and pumpkins to capture the spirit of the season! Check out some tips for creating attractive forms, while avoiding clutter.



Offer Halloween discounts with a lightbox form on your webpage

Do you have an e-commerce store? Don't let your customers get away! Entice them with discounts just as they're about to leave your page using a lightbox form for product orders! Customers will stay longer on your website, increasing the chances that they'll purchase a product.



Get creative with spook-tacular offerings and form names

The Halloween season is an excellent time to be innovative in how you drive profits to your business. Do you run a restaurant? Make it Halloween-ready with special menu offerings - spider web pizzas, pumpkin pies, ghost fingers, etc. You can even offer your customers a great Halloween themed dine-in experience, starting with creative table reservation forms.



Make your Submit button more catchy

Call-to-Action button: Use words that convey the action your customers will perform when they hit the button. This is more likely to help improve conversions. For example, Order Owl Night, Rent a costume, or Donate candy.



Don't forget to thank your customers

Zoho Forms includes a default Thank You page where you can redirect respondents when they submit your form. Don't ruin your customers' Halloween vibe with a generic Thank You message. Make the most of the Thank You page and express your gratitude to your customers with Halloween-themed content. Oh, and stick to your spooky theme on the Thank You page as well. The best part is that you don't have to design the page from scratch; simply use the form design and you're done in a click!



Use these tricks to improve your Sign-Up forms

Sign-up forms are important for any sort of business to acquire, engage, and retain customers. Maintain a consistent Halloween look across your webpages, order forms, and sign-up forms and keep the Halloween fun flowing. This consistency clearly reminds customers that your Halloween offers/discounts are still active.



Share forms on social media and get frighteningly good conversions
 
Social media is a great place to market your business, and it becomes even better when a holiday is approaching. You can circulate your form's permalink URL on your social media handles instantly by clicking the shortcuts for sharing your form on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn under the Share tab. Additionally, you can use Halloween effects to embellish your social media profiles with eerie images.

Share on social media

Have a fang-tastic Halloween!🎃
