I have an e-mail form on my website already to capture leads why do I need Tripleseat’s SmartLead?

Tripleseat’s SmartLead is another distribution channel in addition to the phone and e-mail forms. The problem with e-mails is that they can get lost in spam, potential customers can forget critical information like dates, times, and # of people making it difficult for you to help them, and cut and pasting information into forms is very time consuming and prone to errors. .
