Lead generation is the process that describes the act of engaging and capturing consumers interest in a particular product, service or brand. Often associated with telesales or direct mail, lead generation and getting it right is crucial to any growing business. Leads should be the process of defining, generating, working and communicating with potential clients in a perfectly tailored manor to get the best output for sales leads.
But why are so many companies getting lead generation wrong?
Poor data sources
Sales lead data is often provided by 3rdparty companies and these are often leads that have been sold on to different companies numerous times. They’re often cold leads which have been approached by sales companies with a similar strategy before and not always relevant to the target marketing you’re looking to sell to.
Faceless communication
People want to speak to real people directly, they don’t want to hear a voicemail, see a generic email or receive a link to a landing page of a website. Cold calling or spamming through digital or printed media can sometimes do more harm than good to a company’s reputation. Nowadays people want personalised communication where they can speak to real people in real time about their business and its requirements.
Client access
The client needs instant and back-end access to the sales messages that are being sent out with transparent reporting so they’re able to manage any successful responses from interested parties. Sales follow-up time is often too slow, the quicker you respond the more likely it will be for your lead to turn into a sale. By giving your client the ability to respond themselves in a timely manner will enhance the success of your campaign.
Inexperienced telesales staff
Telemarketing employees can work anything between 6 – 10 hours per day, making up to 300 phone calls during that time. Often paid minimum wage and lacking a genuine knowledge of the product they’re trying to sell doesn’t make a great recipe for sales success.
