Extreme Makeover Home Edition is the popular ABC television show that takes on the monumental task of building a home for a family in need. They are coming back to Central Indiana and Hallmark Homes has been chosen as the home builder for the project. FormSpring has been asked to participate in this great event by donating our application to Hallmark Homes and providing an easy way to allow people to volunteer, donate and to be spectators during the filming of the show.

We are excited to be a small part of this! You can learn more about the build at Hallmark’s website for the build, Hallmark Extreme. Coming later this month a deserving family will be chosen as the lucky recipient of a brand new home from Hallmark HomeRecent Posts:

FormSpring on Fox 59 News

We were surprised last week to see a FormSpring form at the top of the local newscast on Indy’s Fox affiliate, Fox 59. The story was on how the Marion County Health Department is using FormSpring to distribute H1N1 vaccinations to health care providers and other outlets during this important health crisis.

We have been contacted by other local government entities looking for a simple, fast and cost-effective way to collect data online to assist with H1N1 vaccine distribution and administration. We are thrilled to be part of the solution that helps get vaccines to the right people so they may be distributed to our friends and neighbors in Indianapolis.

So let’s all make sure to wash our hands regularly and cover our cough – let’s all stay healthy this cold and flu season!Recent Posts:

Last week Angie’s List VP of Technology, Gary Rush was interviewed by Internet Retailer on how the popular consumer reviews site handles leads during web downtime. You can read the full article over at Internet Retailer but below are some interesting excerpts that highlight the unique way in which Angie’s List uses our web form solution.

How FormSpring was used during the planned maintenance of the Angie’s List site:

When visitors came to AngiesList.com during that downtime period, they were greeted by two messages: One was a standard notification that said the site was temporarily down for maintenance and apologized for any inconvenience; the other offered a promotional code to motivate visitors who were not already subscribers to leave contact information. To accept the promotional code, visitors clicked a button that would take them to a form hosted by FormSpring to enter their name and e-mail address.

The success of their FormSpring form

When we use FormSpring to capture names and send promotional codes, we get conversion rates close to what we get when our site is entirely live, Rush says. He adds that Angie’s List may eventually set up the application so that it automatically transfers files of new customers to the ExactTarget e-mail system automatically e-mails the promotional codes. Angie’s List will also use the application, which is hosted on FormSpring’s web servers in a software-as-a-service environment, for shorter, ongoing routine maintenance periods and to support internal I.T. operations, Rush says.
