How does LeadSquared help marketing agencies?
Develop an Effective Marketing Strategy: The key challenge that digital marketing agencies face is that once a lead comes in, there is no action taken on the lead and no owner assigned to the lead. This results in leads being ignored and not followed up on. LeadSquared overcomes this by allowing users to design a process (or ‘cadence’) for each lead, ensuring that every lead is followed up on and no lead goes unengaged.
Insightful Lead Stage Tracking: Once a lead comes in, there is a cycle of transitioning the lead to a paying customer, which can be broken down into stages. These stages are designed to be totally configurable in LeadSquared, so that you can move the stages of the lead accordingly.
Optimize Sales Workflow: Sales workflow can be scattered and unorganized, which can lead to duplication of effort and confusion over who is responsible for which leads. LeadSquared provides a single source of truth for all activities, so that only one person is responsible for each lead and there is a clear record of all activity.
Automate Lead Management: The term “lead management” refers to the process of capturing and distributing leads to the appropriate sales team members. LeadSquared transfers leads to sales team members who are experts in the relevant area and scoring leads to determine their importance.
