Lung Tumor Playbook Campaign — Zapier setup to connect LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms to Pardot Account Engagement.
Goal
When a new lead submits the LinkedIn Lead Gen form for the Lung Tumor Playbook campaign, the Zap should:
- Create (or update) a prospect record in Pardot / Marketing Cloud Account Engagement
- Add the prospect to the designated recipient list
- Assign the prospect to the corresponding Salesforce campaign
Once the prospect is on the recipient list, the Engagement Studio program automatically enrolls them and begins the 7-email drip sequence.
What's already built (no action needed)
✅7 email templates in Pardot, assigned to the campaign and published
✅Salesforce campaign created and active
✅Pardot recipient list created
✅Engagement Studio program built and ready to launch
The Zap is the final piece needed to connect the lead source (LinkedIn) to the audience (Pardot list).
