1.Detect new form submission
Integrate Gravity Forms and data-mapping tools to retrieve the submission entry and map parent fields to pipeline variables.
Create parent contact event and note in CRM
Automatically map each Gravity Forms new form submission across Salesforce. Create and update parent outreach details when new form submitted or parent email provided or contact notes added—so you can create events, attach notes, and update family records without manual outreach updates.
How this automation keeps parent context in sync
When new form submissions arrive, coordinators lose time to recreate context in the CRM. This automation finds the right contact and family relationship, creates a linked event and note, and updates the record—so your team can follow up faster.

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.
David Laderberg, VP of Sales
Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism — I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.
Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder
Zapier hilft uns, weit über 50% mehr Deals abzuschließen, als wir es ohne Zapier tun würden. Es ist ein Schlüsselelement unserer Gesamtstrategie und somit auch unseres Verkaufsarguments.
Raphael BochnerGründer und CIO
