Overview

When a new lead comes in through a high-value web form, you should also pursue the rest of the stakeholders who influence purchasing decisions at the company. Today, many purchasing decisions are handled by committees and not individuals. This expanded campaign will inform a wider audience about your product, get buy-in at multiple levels, and accelerate the sales process. To save time and avoid a missed opportunity, trigger automated emails to Buying Committee members right after their colleague fills out the form.

Driver Definitions

Identification Rate (IR) This measures the success rate in identifying the company or organization associated with an abandoned chat.

Engagement Rate (ER) This reflects the success in engaging the identified company's buying group or relevant contacts.

Conversion Rate (CR) This metric indicates the proportion of leads that convert into customers. A higher conversion rate suggests a more effective engagement and follow-up strategy.

Average Deal Size (ADS) This refers to the average revenue generated from each successful deal. Maximizing the average deal size is essential for increasing overall revenue, especially when the number of conversions is limited.

Volume of High-Value Forms (VHF) This metric represents the total number of high-value web forms submitted by leads. It serves as the starting point for this expansion strategy, indicating the potential lead pool from which the wider buying committee can be targeted.
