institutional food service lead intake software for teams

Qualify more institutional food service leads before the first call

A basic contact form gives you a name, an email, and silence. Cliont greets every visitor with your video, walks them through their event, collects inspiration photos, and hands you a scored, qualified lead.

Basic contact form

Three empty fields and silence

  • No event details or scope

  • You chase; most never reply

Institutional Food Service lead-intake FAQs

What does a institutional food service intake collect?

Each institutional food service template asks job-specific questions drawn from the selected service, then captures contact details and relevant inspiration photos. The resulting submission gives the team more context than a name-and-email contact form.

How are institutional food service leads scored?

Cliont weights answers that indicate scope, urgency, fit, and potential value. It sends the score with the visitor's answers so the team can prioritize stronger institutional food service opportunities without manually reviewing every raw submission first.

Can visitors try a institutional food service intake on a phone?

Yes. The guided intake is designed for mobile, tablet, and desktop browsers. Visitors can answer questions and attach the requested files from the device they already have with them.

Where can qualified institutional food service leads be sent?

Cliont can route qualified leads to email, SMS, Slack, common CRM and calendar tools, Zapier, webhooks, or an API workflow. Cliont handles lead intake and qualification; the connected practice or business system remains the source of record after handoff.
