    1. Description: This will show above your form as a description of your form. So, you can add any message you want to show to your subscribers, e.g., Join 15, 000+ Members, Subscribe Now, etc.

    2. Form Fields:

      • You can empty the label box if you want to use placeholders only
      • The Email field is mandatory, but the Name field is optional

      • You can edit the button field, e.g., from Subscribe to Update me

    1. If you have Bikes, Cars, SUVs and Trucks as lists, choose at least one of them.

    2. If you select Cars & Trucks, contacts will be added to these two lists
