Hello Bar's popups now run surveys, polls and scheduled campaigns

lead-capturepopupssurveysschedulingconversion-optimization
◆Current state
Hello Bar builds popups, bars and lead-capture forms. Since late September it has added Forms & Surveys, with survey, poll, quiz, feedback and contact goals shown as modals, sliders, inline embeds or page takeovers, and launched Campaigns, which schedules popups to switch on and off by time window or weekly pattern. October brought a redesigned Trigger tab with a reopen limit for custom-event popups, and periodic session expiry. July had added gamification popups, video and a Widgets category.
◆Where it's heading
The product is widening from offer popups into a general on-site data-collection and scheduling tool. Campaigns took about eight weeks from 'coming soon' to live, and the October changes are about making setup faster.
◆Prediction
Expect more Forms & Surveys follow-ups, since the launch post asks for ideas on what's next; the entries do not name specifics.

    Salesforce Integration — New Features & Improvements

    Salesforce sync gains per-contact-list control over whether submissions create Contacts or Leads, and automatic Campaign Member assignment. It moves the integration from a dumb pipe toward something a Salesforce admin can model properly, which matters for the larger accounts running many popups.
