For winning fast sales leads it’s like a shot in the arm. But if the competition is going to let you get away with winning all the hot sales leads for evermore then you’re in for a surprise! While it’s important to gain that precious First Mover Advantage and get ahead, you know that sooner or later your competitors will discover what you’re up to and retaliate accordingly. The web is not a place where you can keep secrets, and they want the sales leads too! So more than ever, it becomes crucial that you plan ahead to stay ahead in the sales leads game - right from Day One. Failure to do this will only bring short term advantage. Few months from then you’ll have to start all over again. Only in that few months it’ll be more expensive and more complex, as it’ll be you reacting to your competitor’s initiatives, and not the other way round! So how can we ensure Lead Sustainability?

Weekly "Making A Difference" Meetings

idea posted by Dharmena Prajapati Sales/BD Manager, Wipro

Sales lead generation and sustainability means implementing weekly Making A Difference meetings. These are regular weekly creative sessions among your lead-generation team. Typically a meeting lasts 60-90 minutes. It’s objective each week is to devise some new aspect to your website to keep it constantly fresh, constantly compelling, and most of all, highly liked by Google and the engines. This ensures you get your share of the sales leads, and keep your share. Some of the typical meeting outcomes to ensure sales lead generation are New inbound links acquired, New case studies or pages to develop to capture more user searches or pay per clicks, Important minor keywords to optimise, again capturing more searches or pay per clicks, and producing more sales leads, Company news to post, etc. The possibilities are almost endless. The linking factor is that whatever is done is done to make a difference.

Regular monitoring and ongoing development

idea posted by Radha Sharma Sales/BD Manager, TCS

I believe, everything about our lead is measured. And as we know, that which can be measured can be improved. Once a month we should go over all the key site statistics and initiatives. We can learn how customers have behave on our lead generated, and so we can plan ahead based on their preferred behaviour. Likewise we discover hidden obstacles to success, or hidden dead zones. For example: Each month we check the results achieved, Checks the next steps for sustaining sales leads, invites comment and plan to achieve your aims. In all of these steps, we work as closely with site statistics with reports on-demand, so that we can keep abreast of the effectiveness of our plans.

Building a Centre of Excellence

idea posted by Mohit Aggarwal Sales/BD Manager, Oracle

The best way to sustain lead generation is to be at the hub - the centre of your market niche or business category. There is no better way to achieve this than through Thought Leadership. Thought Leadership will make you stand out by a mile as far as customers are concerned. They will recognise your excellence, at the expense of your competitors. A big part of your Lead Sustainability plan is the constant development of new techniques to attract every major customer might use. A Centre of Excellence is simply a happy spin-off from a well-organised Lead Sustainability and lead generation plan. A Centre of Excellence is a freebie. One of the biggest freebies a marketeer could wish for! We sustain your lead generation flow with an uncopyable Centre of Excellence.
