Lead Management for Photographers

Lead management means every enquiry lands in one inbox, emails you instantly, and can be converted into a project — instead of enquiries scattered across email, Instagram and a contact form.

An enquiry that arrives through your website contact form, an Instagram DM, and a friend's referral by text are the same thing from a business perspective — someone who might book you — but they usually land in three different places. Lead management is the practice of funnelling them into one.

What a lead system needs

  • One place every enquiry lands, whatever the source.
  • An instant notification so a hot lead doesn't sit unread.
  • A record of every message, so you're not hunting through old threads.
  • A one-click way to turn a lead into a booked project.

How lemon.gallery handles leads

Every enquiry — from a built-in embeddable form, your existing website form pointed at a capture address, or a booking request — lands in a Leads tab and emails you the core details immediately. Click a lead to see their contact info, phone number, message, and any email conversation pulled read-only from your connected Gmail. Convert a lead into a project in one click, choosing a workflow and a value.

Frequently asked questions

Can I keep my existing website contact form?

Yes — point its action at your personal lead-capture address and every submission becomes a lead automatically, with no changes needed to your form's design.

Can I see my email conversation with a lead?

Yes, once you've connected Google — it shows only the emails exchanged with that specific lead's address, read-only.

Do I have to use the built-in lead form?

No — build one with the form builder, or keep your current form and just point it at the capture address instead.
