Making a Content Upgrade Pop-Up From Scratch

  • Go to Forms + Pop-up > New Popups.

  • Under the Basic tab, you can add a Name.

  • Then go to and Under Add Contact To List, choose a suitable option. If you want to add leads from the exit intent pop-up to an already existing list, choose Add to an Existing List, and choose the List you want to add the leads to. Else choose Add To Auto Created List, and Send will automatically create a new list with leads collected through that pop-up. Choosing No action required will not add the leads to any list. 

  • Under Basic option, set the Pop-Up type to Email Collect to collect information or Call To Action if you want to drive the user to take a specific action. 

  • Go to content and choose a Theme of your choice and customize the colors of various buttons in that theme.
