You might be surprised how handy these forms will come in.
I haven’t built up an email list. I know, I just heard every successful author and blogger out there groan. Like you, I’ve read how important a list can be to stay in touch with readers.
However, I’m not ready to sign up with a service like MailChimp yet. And I’ve got enough on my plate what with the blog and my little sideline called writing.
This is where Google forms come in.
Need to send out a quick request for info, make a form and send it to friends, families, attach it to your blog, Facebook page or Tweet it out.
You can make all types of custom forms to meet whatever info you need.
Like this form, I made, asking for readers to review my little 32-page children’s picture book. She’s making her debut next week.
If you’d be willing to do a quick review for me click on the book cover below.
Want to make your own form? To collect emails, send out announcements or whatever?
Just go to Google Forms and get started! It’s easy.
There are templates for party invites, registrations, sign-up sheets, evaluations and more!
Here is a tutorial to help you get started.
So tell me…
How do you gather information?
Do you use forms or a service like MailChimp?
Talk to me, the lights on and comments are now open.
