Before we get started…<\/strong><\/h3>\nYou will want to set up your lead gen experience as you normally would and create a traffic source for it. For more information on creating a URL, click here<\/a>. \n

Respondents always new<\/strong><\/h3>\nYour ion traffic sources come with advanced features which can be accessed by clicking the “Edit URL & settings” button within the URL Management screen. \n\n\"Current\n\nFrom here, you will see a “Respondents always new” option. This option treats return visitors as unique visitors and should be enabled to ensure that all new people that enter their information will have their data collected separately from the last person.\n\n\"Current\n

Thank You page<\/strong><\/h3>\nThe respondents always new feature will only be triggered when someone goes through the actual URL. This makes it important to note that the person operating the device collecting lead information should not use the back button.\n\nInstead, a button on the Thank You page should be added to go through the traffic source as if it were an external URL. The person operating the device collecting leads may use this button to go back through the URL so that the next person is treated as a unique visitor and have their data collected separately from the previous visitor.\n\n\"Current\n\n\n
