Email is still one of the most effective communication channels of many B2B clients.

So how to ensure you only collect work email IDs? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this quick guide, we\u2019ll show you how to collect work email IDs only on your Facebook Instant Forms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3 easy steps to make work emails mandatory on Facebook Instant Forms <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Step 1: Choose Work Email from ‘Work information’ while creating lead form<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. In your Meta Ads Manager, create a Lead campaign<\/strong> and choose Instant Form<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"Facebook<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Open the form editor and go to Fields<\/strong> (Contact\/Work sections).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Under Work Information<\/strong>, select \u201cWork email\u201d.\n
        \n
      1. Do not select<\/strong> the standard \u201cEmail\u201d under Contact fields.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        \"Ads<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        1. Make sure Work email<\/strong> is required (not marked as optional).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. Save the form.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Keep in mind that this will still allow free email IDs (like Google or Yahoo) but it adds a layer for users to encourage submitting their professional emails. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Step 2: Enable \u201crequire work email\u201d while creating ads <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          1. Choose Instant Form<\/strong> as the lead destination (select the form from Step 1).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          2. Scroll to Lead quality \/ Quality filters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          3. Check the box for \u201cRequire work email\u201d.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
            \"Facebook<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
              \n
            1. Review and publish your ad.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

              The second step removes any pre-filled personal emails and encourages users to submit emails from work domains. However, some users might still enter non-professional domains (e.g., example.com), but you\u2019ll see more legit work emails overall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Step 3: Validate work emails inside Privyr (Optional)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                \n
              1. If you\u2019re receiving Facebook leads via Privyr (or other CRMs), set up a rule to check the email domain inside Privyr.\n
