How to create the best free floating bar to use with Google Chat

Google Chat is a communication platform that allows businesses to communicate with their customers in real-time. With its intuitive interface and numerous features, it provides an excellent platform for businesses to engage with their customers and collect data on their needs and preferences.

By collecting customer data, such as email addresses and contact information, you can stay in touch with your customers and build relationships with them over time. 

Floating bar "floats" along the bottom or top of your website, offering visitors an easy way to interact with your business. You can use a floating bar to display important information, such as your business hours or contact information, or to offer something valuable to your visitors, like a free guide or a discount.

By using a floating bar in conjunction with Google Chat, you can collect valuable customer data and insights. Plus, with Google Chat's reporting features, you can track your lead capture performance and adjust your strategy accordingly.

Choose the most reliable and high-quality floating bar solution for your Google Chat.

Step 1. Create your Serviceform account 

Start by creating your free Serviceform account. After that, you can generate your Serviceform pixel in the box below. To start, type your website URL and select "START NOW".

Step 2.  Install the free floating bar on your website

Using HTML

If you're a tech-savvy person or have a developer in your team, it's easy to add a Serviceform Floating bar to your website using HTML. 


To start, click on the website you’ve set up on your Serviceform account and select settings. 


Then, copy the pixel code and paste it on the header tag section of your website. 

Voila! Your website just got a lot cooler with Serviceform’s Floating bar. 


Using Google Tag Manager

No worries if HTML isn't your thing. Installing the Serviceform pixel onto your website using Google Tag Manager is easy. 

Simply choose the option to install via Google Tag Manager in your Serviceform account, then copy your unique pixel code.

Next, head over to your Google Tag Manager account and create a new tag. Then name your tag.

Once you've named your tag, head to the tag configuration and choose custom HTML from the drop-down menu. Then, simply paste the Serviceform pixel code you copied earlier into the code area.

Then click on ‘triggering’ and select ‘all pages.’ Then save your work and press submit. In the submission configuration screen, type ‘Adding Serviceform pixel’ into the ‘Version name’ area, and you’re all set. 

Step 3. Test if your Serviceform pixel is live

You can check if your pixel is active by looking at the top right corner of your dashboard.

If you see a green circle, that means it's active and ready to go. But if you see a red circle, it means it's not active yet. No worries, just give it a quick check and get it up and running in no time. 

Step 4. Connect your floating bar with Google Chat through Zapier

Once logged in, click on the option to create a new Zap. In the next step, select “Webhooks by Zapier” under the “App & Event” section, trigger the event “Catch Hook” and click “Continue”.

Now at the next step, select the Google Chat app and choose the “Create or Update Contact” action event. Proceed by selecting “Continue” and then pick your Google Chat account.

If you haven't connected your Zapier account yet, go to “Edit Accounts” and log in. Next, proceed to “Customise Contact” and fill in the necessary fields for successful integration with your Google Chat account. Once you have completed the desired information, select “Done Editing” and run the final test. 


Congratulations! You're now ready to go. You can run tests, set up email notifications, and more. 

Each time a customer completes a flow through the floating bar and submits their information, that data will automatically be added to your Google Chat account.
