You've got the best product/service, everything is planned and your business is up and running. What are you missing?
CLIENTS!
And the question arises… Where do leads come from?
What is a lead?
In sales, we consider a lead any person who has the potential of becoming a client of your company. This person may have shown interest in your business at some point, or could benefit from it.
We can classify leads into three categories or tiers, that will help mobile numbers database you assess the amount and kind of efforts you have to invest in them:
Cold leads
These are individuals who may have shown little interest in your business (perhaps they have visited your website, or your LinkedIn profile or have liked a post on social media).
We also consider cold leads those leads who have never heard of your company and who you are reaching out to for the first time without any previous engagement.
Warm leads
These leads have demonstrated some interest in the company's products or services, such as downloading a whitepaper, signing up for a webinar, or requesting more information.
Hot leads
Our favorite tier!
These are highly qualified leads who have shown strong interest and intent to purchase, such as requesting a demo, asking for pricing information, or expressing an immediate need for the product or service.
