I was thinking a bot might be useful.

BOT:What would you like to do today?

create a lead form for our website.

BOT: Why? Just kidding...Would you like to see some examples of lead forms?

No.

BOT: ok...What fields you like to add to the form from my library?

Name, address, do you like sushi?

BOT: Would you like to split Name into first and last name?

yes.

BOT: ok.. I have a form with first name, last name, address and do you like sushi? would you like to see the form?
