In a sophisticated, complex, business organisation, the traditional marketing techniques of blastomatics don't play.
A flood of ordinary, everyday leads does not mean that successful sales will follow. The goal of well-developed lead generation plans, therefore, is to evolve relationships between people through dialogue that positions the lead generation effort as conversation to identify, initiate and nurture productive selling situations.
To truly optimize lead generation, you need to have at the centre of your lead generation efforts a deep understanding of the customer buying cycle, and use this to tailor how you converse with your customer or prospect.
Secondly, the lifespan of a lead when you look at it in terms of its ability to generate revenue this week, this month, this quarter, is very short. And it declines radically over time. If you look beyond that though, the value of that data, that intelligence, to be able to capture that, retain that, and market to it suggests that maybe next quarter, next year, two years from now, you may want to sell them again. Or you may have a 2.0 version of your product or service come out, and that person or that entity may be a candidate. Therefore, leads that do not convert or those leads that sales rejects have value, and need to be nurtured in a special and different way.
