Standard vs Custom Lead Grading Standard Lead Grading Available in All Products Custom Grading Available in Pro & Enterprise L
Standard Lead Grade • 0 to 100 Score • Based purely on engagement with website • Ranks all leads against each other periodically
Update Grade via HubSpot API http://docs.hubapi.com/wiki/Custom_Lead_Grade • You Can Update Programmatically. • LeadGrader App , by LyntonWeb Updates this Field Automatically Using the API
Custom Grade • Custom: Grade on engagement + characteristics of leads + stage of buying process. • More control over which leads get sent to sales/worked by sales. • Get tire-kickers/bad fits/competitors out of your sales funnel.
Start Adding Criteria • Landing page/form • Form field response • Number of conversions • Number of visits • Number of page views • Found site Via
Some Ideas • Form Fields: • Title. Weight titles differently: CEO, CMO, Small Business Owner • Start collecting “company size”. Get rid of real small and real big. • BANT: Budget, Authority, Need, Timing:: Ask form questions about “biggest marketing challenge”, “what they’re spending or doing now, what they plan to do differently, what time frame for a change is. (E.g. on Website redesign ebook: “When are you planning to redesign your website?”) • Negative scores: for other marketing agencies/competitors, smaller companies, lower level titles. What other ideas do you have?
Qualify First…. • What’s a good lead for you? What characteristics would determine whether a lead is good or not? • Are some landing pages/forms on your site better indicators of a sales ready lead? • Do you know if some sources of leads convert to sales better than others? • Do you get good leads from your website? Are they the same quality as other leads? • Do you send all of your leads to your sales team to work? Do they work them deeply or complain about the quality of them? • How does your sales team prioritize who to call first? • How do they prioritize who to call again? How do they determine when to call someone again? • Tie Down: If you could automatically sort which leads are qualified prospects, would that help you? Help your sales team?
Tie Downs • If you could specify criteria for what a qualified lead is and then automatically grade them, would that help you? Help your sales team? How would that help you/your sales team? • What criteria makes a good lead? Ask why. (Write them down.) • Do you think your sales team would agree that these criteria are ideal too? Does it make sense to survey them? • In addition to these criteria, what kind of questions does your sales team ask prospects once they get them on the phone? • How much weight would you assign each of these criteria?
Ideas Being Considered • Use Advanced Analytics Events as Grading Criteria (Pages Viewed, Clicked Elements, Advanced Landing Pages/Other Forms, Custom Events) • Trigger events and lead nurturing sequences based on grading criteria: helps to nurture based on form field responses. (e.g. Nurture CEO differently than assistant.) • Use recency of activity to reduce lead grade.
Homework • Install the app • Configure your lead grade • Share the criteria you used with the group… • Get inspiration from the group… http://www.linkedin.com/groupItem?view=&gid=2879340&type=member&item=82792698&qid=14e87085-7438-4400-a6c5-d762c776a639&goback=%2Egmp_4077255%2Egmp_2879340
