Lead scoring best practices

  • Keep the lead scoring simple. Too many data points can make leads look too similar.
  • Decide on processes. It's standard to follow up with a marketing qualified lead (MQL) and use drip email to look after the leads.
  • Define a follow-up schedule. E.g. high-quality leads could receive a phone call within 24 hours.
  • Connect your CRM. Automate your lead-scoring data through your DRM to notify sales and marketing teams to contact leads.
  • Frequently run a lead-scoring report to see if it matches your conversions.
  • Clean up data from leads that did not convert.
