Slashing Lead Response Time by 90%: A Credit Coaching Success Story
The Challenge
A UK-based credit coaching company faced a critical problem: potential clients had to wait 30 seconds after submitting their information before being redirected based on their credit score. "We were losing leads because people would get bored and click off during that long loading screen," explains Robert, the company's optimization lead.
The team spent over a week trying to fix their existing Zapier automation without success. Their process involved multiple steps through Google Sheets, creating unnecessary delays.
The Solution
Working with Connex Digital, the team rebuilt the automation using Make.com:
- Form submission triggers webhook
- Direct API call to credit check service
- Immediate conditional redirect based on score:
- Above 650: Calendar booking page
- Below 650: Information page
The entire solution was built and tested in just two consulting sessions.
The Results
The transformation was dramatic:
- Reduced redirect time from 30 to 2-3 seconds (90% improvement)
- Eliminated all manual steps
- Created seamless user experience
- Built scalable solution for multiple forms
- Removed dependency on Google Sheets
"Oh my God, this is a game changer!" exclaimed Robert after seeing the first successful test. "Our lives just got so much easier," added Callum, Client Success Manager.
Business Impact
- Reduced lead abandonment
- Enabled instant prospect qualification
- Created professional, seamless experience
- Easy replication across marketing funnels
As Robert summarized: "It's really cool. It's like magic. We can know people's credit before they book a sales call, instantly."
This case study shows how the right technical solution can transform a frustrating 30-second delay into a nearly instantaneous experience that better serves both the business and its customers.
