Overview

Lead Liaison offers lead scoring to help qualify leads based on their interests and activities. Prospects are scored according to specific activities that indicate interest in a certain solution. Scoring values are represented by a number, ranging from 0 to 1,000.

Setting Up Lead Scoring

To setup a lead scoring process do the following:

...

• Name = The name of the Lead Scoring Process. The name entered here will also be the name of the Campaign. 
• Stage = Existing or new prospects. 
  • Existing Prospects = Existing prospects in the Lead Liaison database. This is a good way to profile your existing database for your sales team. 
  • New Prospects = Selects only new prospects that enter the system. 
• Type = Known, Unknown or both. 
  • Known = Prospects with an email address. 
  • Unknown = Prospects without an email address. 
  • Both = Both Known and Unknown prospects.

Notify your Team of Hot Leads

A common best practice is to keep prospects in the marketing pipeline until they are ready for sales. One effective way to implement this strategy is to setup an automation that passes a lead to sales or sends them an alert when the prospect reaches a certain lead score threshold. To set this up, create a new automation with filter "Lead Score > X", and add a Send Alert action to notify the lead owner (if there is no marketing pipeline or the lead owner is not marketing) or add the lead to a Lead Distribution process and distribute the lead to your sales team accordingly.
