Want a simple email to lead Salesforce solution? Does your business receive hundreds of leads by email, then you find yourself manually creating new records in Salesforce.

And as we all know, making changes to existing processes can quickly become expensive, especially when Salesforce is involved. Thus, we are also listed on the Salesforce AppExchange. Create a seamless transition from email to Salesforce lead with a FREE Mailparser trial.
Creating an email to lead Salesforce workflow
This is actually a very common (and painful) situation which we see quite often here at Mailparser. We already helped a lot of businesses which receive leads through emails sent from a web contact form or through third-party lead providers. Most of the time those leads are worth a lot of money and it’s very important that they are transferred to Salesforce, (or any other CRM), fast and without errors.
Here is a tutorial to better understand how Mailparser and Salesforce can work together to convert emails to leads, or continue reading below:
Typically, email leads are received one by one and the relevant data can be found in the text body (e.g. “First Name: Peter”, “Email: his@email.com’, …) like in the simple example shown above. In other cases, multiple leads are sent in as PDF or Excel file attachments. Once received, a staff member transfers those leads to Salesforce by doing the same tedious copy & paste routine day after day.
This calls for automation!
Wouldn’t it be nice to have an automated Salesforce email to lead process which does all the heavy lifting for you so that you can close more deals by talking to your leads? A software that is able to import data from emails to Salesforce CRM?
