Congratulations! You have generated lots of leads with your website. But remember, lots of leads "don't mean Jack" if you can't convert them into customers and sales. Your leads are now at the "top of the funnel" and your goal is to convert as many leads into customers at the "bottom of the funnel". The trick is getting your leads down that funnel without slipping out or getting stuck in the middle.
Thanks to search engines, your potential buyers (leads) are more educated and in control of their purchases than ever before. If your website is awesome and your brand is popular online, some of your leads may be much closer to converting than others. First, you need to be able to identify and separate your sales-ready leads based on quality and urgency. These leads are closer to the funnel bottom and need to be reached with a slightly more aggressive approach than your other warm leads. The other warm leads may purchase at some time in the future, just not today. These leads need to be "nurtured" over time, and with consistent good marketing campaigns some of these leads will become customers too.
If your business is constantly generating new leads, your lead management, lead nurturing, campaign tracking and conversion analysis can become very confusing and difficult to manage without marketing tools. Marketing automation is a tremendous help at this stage and the more integrated these tools are the more successful you will be with time management and accuracy. We recommend HUBSPOT for seamless integration of over a dozen marketing tools to convert the most leads into customers.
