Why do you jump me to a signup form as soon as I go to the URL? Let me get a good look at you first. Tell me your story. Buy me a drink. Give me some good pillow talk.

When I read the copy on your site, it feels like it’ll be cool and casual and mysterious, which is the right approach. This aggressive Typeform maneuver ruins that feel.

I would sign up for this if there was a way I could indicate that I don’t want to talk about work.

Hi Kevin! Thanks for your feedback. That's odd, we haven't seen the behavior you're talking about yet, it shouldn't go directly to the form. Was that on desktop, tablet, or mobile?

We've now put the form behind a button which looks better anyway. For what it's worth, we also checked out Wufoo which looks better in-line but, unless we're missing something, you can't add a free form "Other" response to a Checkboxes question and the Multiple Choice question forces you to pick one response. That would have required us to add a new free form field after the location preference field if they picked Other.

Appreciate the feedback on the copy. Thanks for the idea for talking about work/not talking about work. Definitely could be a concern for a lot of people. We've added another question to the survey asking for work talk preferences.

Desktop. Safari. I think the problem might be that Typeform tries to auto move the cursor to the first field input so you can just start typing right away.

We used to do this on Wufoo forms, but when people embedded them, we saw this problem and turned it off if the form was embedded.
