## 👉 How Lead Attribution Works

1. **First Visit: Unknown Lead**\
   A visitor lands on your site but hasn’t shared their email: they’re still anonymous.
2. **Demo Time: Staying Anonymous**\
   The visitor explores a Storylane demo — we identify account-level data but without the visitor submitting a form, they're still unknown at a user-level.
3. **Form Filled: They’re In**\
   The visitor eventually fills out a form on the website (with Storylane JS embeded). Now, Storylane can link their email to past demo interactions.
4. **Lead Linking Magic**\
   Boom! Storylane matches the email with previous demo actions, giving us a full picture of their journey and interest level (+ all future interactions)!

{% hint style="danger" %}
For automatic lead attribution to work, Storylane JS must be installed on *every page* of the website. Without this, we can’t detect those form submissions or link demo activity back to leads.

## 👉 How to Install the Storylane JavaScript Code

Add this code snippet to the `<head>` section on every page to power up lead tracking:

```html
<script>
  (function() {
    "use strict";
    function e(t) {
      var r = t.head;
      if (!r) return;
      var i = t.querySelector('script[src="https://js.storylane.io/js/v2/storylane.js"]'),
          n = t.querySelector('script[src="https://js.storylane.io/js/v1/storylane.js"]');
      if (i || n) return;
      var s = t.createElement("script");
      s.type = "text/javascript", s.async = !0, s.src = "https://js.storylane.io/js/v2/storylane.js",
      r.appendChild(s);
    }
    e(window.document);
  })();
</script>
```

## 👉 Best Practices

To keep everything smooth:

* [x] **Storylane JS Code:** Must be on *every page*, in the `<head>` tag.
* [x] **CRM Integrations:** We support Marketo, HubSpot, and Pardot (other CRMs coming soon).
