How To Qualify Your Sales And Marketing Leads?
An effective marketing department requires data driven marketing strategy using internal and external data effectively to help marketing efforts become more successful. 92 percent of marketers feel that data is their organization's most underused asset. Almost the same percentage do not have a good quality data management practice that can help them perform data analytic driven insights about their customers. Their ability to develop a good marketing strategy or even a good lead generation program is limited. A good marketeer understands that even simple lead generation for sales campaigns cannot be effective by just acquiring marketing lists. It starts with understanding who your customers are.
This starts with building a quality customer database. Whilst this seems to be an obvious and a fundamental step, many companies fail to do this and do not have a good understanding of their customer, prospects, target market, competitors just to list a few obvious pieces of data that have been neglected in a database.
Such insights are required in order to build a good marketing campaign. If you do not know what your customers look like, how do you go about finding look-alike prospects and acquiring a marketing list in a sales campaign?
