It is not a good practice to just have hundreds of leads. At VOIZ we firmly believe that you need to have the capacity to close rather than having to chase endless dead prospects. Leads are the most elemental requirement for the smooth running and operation of any business and at the end of the day profits and results are all that matter. No matter what platform is being utilized or how many leads are being generated, what is of significance is how companies qualify their leads. This step is significant because not all leads are ideal for your business and filtering out potential customers translates into longer lifetime value.
According to MarketingSherpa, Lack of need nurturing is the common cause of poor performance because 79% of leads never convert into sales. This is because acquiring prospective leads and filtering them into viable leads is no easy task. Managing leads and qualifying them is an essential aspect of understanding whether one should spend time on someone or not. Qualifying your leads is an essential step toward understanding whether a prospect is a viable customer with a genuine interest in what you are selling or if they are nothing more than a name and phone number.

Or is your sales budget hindering you from deriving the most out of your enquiries?

Another way is when a lead is qualified, the outsourced call centre agent with notify your internal team in real-time, outlining the most important information they need to close the deal.
