Lead Generation Analytics - Critical Cog in the Wheel
While the Lead Gen IQ Scorecard covers 10 critical areas, and takes only a couple of minutes to complete, I wanted to point out that having a rock solid analytics solution in place is critical. Google Analytics helps, but is not the right solution. We firmly believe that Hubspot provides the robust analytics platform you need to be a successful Inbound Marketer.
Value of a Lead
Many of our clients have no idea what the value of a lead is to them, nor how to figure out that number. We've built another calculator you can use to zero in on that number, and with it, you can begin to address one of the other major shortfalls we run across - insufficient budget to meet your target marketing goals.
Lead Scoring
Every sales team we work with, without exception, is focused on making their number. Their number one complaint is usually that the lead quality is no good. That's why lead scoring is such a critical topic. It's also why an ongoing lead qualification program is a must if your lead generation strategies are to be appreciated by the team.
Integrated Inbound Marketing Campaign
Inbound marketing campaigns can be very complex. Fortunately, with today's marketing automation platforms, such as the Hubspot Marketing Hub, it is easy to ensure your content, your landing pages, your blogs, your Calls-to-Actions (CTAs) and all of your social media posts are all tracked within a single campaign. When you also run Sales via the Hubspot CRM, when you close deals, you can attribute the exact amounts earned to each campaign. This information is invaluable to using Google's AI driven, value-based PPC campaigns.
Which Lead Generation Strategy Works Best?
Lead gen works best if you create an omni-channel lead generation strategy that targets the right target audience with the right messaging. It allows customers to engage with your company in ways that work for them. But you will need to have, master and use the right lead generation tools if you are reach lead ninja status. Sales and marketing teams rely on having the right lead generation and sales closing tools at their disposal in today's fast paced, digital marketing landscape.
