Lead Intelligence dashboard view |
Some companies still think about lead generation in terms of the sheer volume of leads delivered. Having a large number of leads to work with can be a good thing. However, unless these prospects are delivered instantly and are highly relevant, then you’re pretty much working with useless data and conversion rates will be low. More leads, More leads, therefore, doesn’t always equal more conversions.
So how confident are you that your campaign is generating highly relevant prospects and delivering the best results? Let’s look at some key areas you should consider to ensure your campaign’s success.
Stringent security
We all know how important data security is. So, before you embark on a new campaign, choose a technology platform that easily passes the most stringent data security tests.

Real-time results
With lead generation, timing is of key importance. The speed at which data can be received, processed and distributed for conversion is crucial. The ideal, of course, being in no time! Real-time scoring, pricing, validating, transferring and analysing of leads and performance will vastly improve your campaign’s results.

Scale to size
Ensure your provider can grow (or shrink) with you and enables you to deploy campaigns of any size with robust, reliable and scalable technology. Cloud-based platforms offer a versatile option as they will let you easily add or remove capacity as required. Scale works both ways though, so use cap management features to make sure you are getting the right volume of results. Technology can also help you manage both suppliers and sources with fast and easy set-up, adaptation and removal of budget allocations and caps, creatives, channels and formats.

Intelligent insight
The level of insight is only as good as the output of your analytics tool. Without decent validation, data collection and campaign management, you’re essentially working with incorrect data. Ensure solid reporting metrics are available 24/7. That way you can identify under or over performers and you will be alerted instantly when issues arise.

Digesting data
Your technology platform should digest the mountains of data into a usable format in real-time. Whether internal or third party feeds, small or big data, advertiser or supplier perspectives, there are hundreds of ways to slice, dice, customise and pivot it. The data you are presented with should perfectly fit your needs and those of the different people logging in to view it.

The easiest way is by creating customisable Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). Multiple KPIs for measuring early, mid and long term performance will help you properly apportion campaign budgets and enable you to make the most of your media spend.
