As an Inside Sales representative, you should know EXACTLY what your target audience looks for, wants, needs, interested in, understands and thinks. If you don’t have this, you will end up playing your cards wrongly. On the other hand, having this handy will help you generate qualified and actionable sales leads.
How are leads generated?
There are different ways to generate lead lists and they cost you from nothing to blood rich.
There are different ways to generate lead lists and they cost you from nothing to blood rich.
1) Generating leads manually from various online directories, phone books and websites:
Easily any one can pick up names of companies, addresses and phone numbers from a wide variety of online directories or phone books that are available on the Internet.
Apparently, there are limitations of building leads from these sources. It doesn’t answer ‘Who is the decision maker’ question. Even if you get to discover information on top-level executives from website, still you can’t make out if he is the decision maker for your product.
2) Buying list:
Another great way to generate hot “ready to buy” leads is to buy them from lead brokers and lead companies. These companies’ sole focus is to generate leads and sell them to companies like you.
The BUYING LIST option presents itself as a two edged sword with accuracy and list updating frequency WHICH determine the success ratio for Inside Sales experts.
Let’s flip the coin to see limitations. Research says that, about 10-15% of organizations relocate annually. It also emphasizes that top management attrition strikes double digit figure in a year. This means, on an average 7 to 8% of your list becomes outdated and unusable in 3 months time. Here, we are not considering the date of purchase but the date was last verified by your vendor who provided you the list.
Breaking new grounds:
At the end-of-the-day, you want targeted industry, companies, decision makers AND their contact information (email addresses and phone numbers). Making call to your non-target group, decision maker and to outdated numbers costs company an arm and leg.
Any successful Inside Sales representative will look for ‘Accuracy’ in the list and how this can be achieved by enriching the outdated / aged / incomplete information that they have?
