Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Lead scoring is an automated marketing tool used by sales and marketing teams to determine qualified leads. Scores are attached to each lead based on their interest level in products or services. Lead scoring models differ from company to company. We assign points through lead-scoring best practices. What are the criteria used for lead-scoring clients? We use various actions to contribute to a lead's score, including the number of pages visited and searches performed on your site, whether or not prospects downloaded any resources from your site, and if they got to your site via an email click-through. These and other factors make up a lead scoring model.

Pros

  • Leverage real data and analytics to inform your strategy.
  • Consider setting up more than one lead scoring model.
  • Focus on high-value website actions and engagements.
  • Don't assign points for every email open.
  • Use negative attributes/scoring to avoid inflated scores.

Cons

  • \New channels, mediums and metrics influencing the customer journey are introduced every day.
  • Committing to a lead scoring model that doesn't dynamically adjust as your customers do, will produce inaccuracies.
  • Without manually adjusting on a regular basis, miscalculations won't be addressed in a timely manner.

Most Important Features

  • Trying to Cope with a Challenge. The best leads have a specific problem that they're trying to solve.
  • Shows Genuine Interest.
  • Responds with a Sense of Urgency.
  • Looks Like Your Existing Customers.
  • Has Authority or Access to It.

Return on Investment

  • Summary Lead. A summary lead is the most common and traditional lead in journalism.
  • Single-Item Lead. This lead focuses on just one or two elements of a summary lead.
  • Delayed Identification Lead.
  • Creative Lead.
  • Short Sentence Lead.
  • Analogy Lead.
