GIRIKON’S SALESFORCE CONSULTANTS EXPLAIN HOW EINSTEIN LEAD SCORE REALLY WORKS
Girikon’s Salesforce Consulting Services team regularly are asked questions about Salesforce terminology and Lead Scoring. Usually starting with the basics works for our Salesforce Consultants and their customers. Lead is a common term which happens to come across every time we talk about Salesforce. So, what exactly is a lead and what do we mean by lead score? In this section we will try to explain all about leads.
The terminology “Lead” in salesforce are the potential customers or clients and sometimes called ‘unqualified sales opportunity’ who would be interested in an organisation’s products and services. These leads are typically generated from marketing campaigns or events, such as trade shows, digital campaigns; or they can come from online interactions when someone registers on the company’s website or can fill out a web form requesting more information about the product and services. Leads can also be captured using a variety of manual processes such as using list imports and using web-to-lead forms.
In the Lead conversion process, once enough information is gathered about the lead to qualify that lead can be entered as a ‘qualified opportunity’, the lead can be automatically converted to an account and/or contact and opportunity. Before the lead conversion process, a lead undergoes what marketers call a Lead Generation Funnel.
Qualified and Unqualified Leads can be distinguished based on various Sales criteria. This classification helps an organisation focus on the qualified leads and sometimes would create and reach out to customers through promotional content to keep the lead as their prospective customers. It helps the Sales team to prioritize leads. Lead prioritization is based on the key factors that helps score individual leads, commonly termed as Lead Scoring.
Lead Scoring is a Sales and Marketing methodology, ranking leads in certain order to determine their Sales readiness and their business worth to organizations. Traditionally, lead scoring has been based on the lead’s behaviour and interest about the products and services.
Lead scoring can be categorized as Traditional Lead Scoring and Predictive Lead Scoring.
Traditional Lead Scoring is a technique based on a Sales representative’s personal and organization’s professional criterion, which is commonly termed as ‘Rule based Lead Scoring’. This is a process where Sales teams determine the criterion-based lead quality to then assign them a Score.
Predictive Lead Scoring is a technique that uses an algorithmic tool, which uses your history of lead conversion along with the defined rules to predict which leads are likely to convert based on each of their computed scores. It is an automated lead scoring mechanism based on historical customer data.
