If you are thinking of using effective lead generation for marketing you need to understand that the entire purpose of lead generation is to get your website visitors and other prospects to take the next step.
Effective lead generation is like giving your prospects a gentle nudge in the right direction towards taking the next step, and only that step, following whatever lead generation material you have sent devised. An effective lead generation piece is short and to the point. This is the point where most people go wrong in their lead generation efforts – keep it short and get to the point.
While you may be tempted to tell your entire life story to how you got to where you are today, what a great deal you are offering, how your company is the leader in its industry and how it got there and that there isn’t anything about your products and services that your cousin Mo doesn’t like is not the kind of information you want to have in your lead generation piece. The only thing that much information will do for you is work against you. Giving too much information, even if it is just a single sentence too much can have bad consequences.
So now you know what NOT to put in your lead generation piece your probably thinking what DO you put in an effective lead generation piece. The reason for writing a lead generation piece is to motivate your prospects so the piece must be written around the promise of great potential. In writing your lead generation you have to convince your prospect to interrupt whatever they are doing, important or not, and respond to your piece now. This is not an easy task especially since you only have a paragraph or two to do it in.
Effective lead generation comes in other forms as well. There are many businesses that provide quality leads to businesses. The process of effective lead generation is really quite simple. A business will develop a website and partners with several other websites in which to advertise and promote your product or service. A web visitor finds these websites and fills out the online request form to receive more information. The buyers information is matched with the appropriate provider and then the matched leads are sent to you, the prospective provider.
Lead generation is both a win-win for the buyer and seller. The buyer is able to request the information from a multitude of businesses that offer the product or service they are needing and the seller has been given the opportunity make their sales pitch to someone who has given permission. Success rates using lead generation methods are far higher than if you were to use cold contacts because the prospects are prequalified before the name reaches your inbox.
The biggest reason effective lead generation has become such a great marketing tool is because it is a way that you can grow your business quickly. Don’t waste your time with this marketing method if you aren’t going to follow through and close the sale.
