The crucial node of lead generation: the website
|
|
 |
All these new Internet Marketing forms and channels have one
thing in common:
in almost all cases they point to the Company’s website,
generating
visits on the website.
At the same time the conventional lead generation methods will guide
and bring the interested parties also to your website, as all Marketing
publications and communications carry the company’s website
name.
So eventually all these efforts and events on the Internet and all the conventional advertising and promotion campaigns or events, all result in one or more visits on the Company website.
It is a fact; all Business Decision Makers will gather their information on the Internet using the Search Engines, as these Search Engines have turned the Internet into a 24 x 7 Trade Show.
The
company website not solely provides for the information to the
visitors, but also has become the place to measure the Marketing
efforts using web analytics. Thus website has become the crucial node
of Marketing already.
And now the website should become the crucial node for lead generation
too, as all potential customers visit the website:
- Internet Marketing lead generation -> website
- Conventional lead generation -> website
- Business Decision Makers gather information -> website
However the currently used method of capturing contact data:
- by forms
- by registering for White Paper downloads
- by direct contact from the website
This will only capture 2% or 3% of all visitors. This is not the best method for leads generation: missing 97% or more of your opportunities is not exactly what you want.
Thus an additional functionality for your website is required:Lead Generation & Website role

Website Visitor capturing system
Thus an additional functionality for your website is required.
The website needs to be enhanced with a tool for capturing the website
visitor, aiming at the 97%. Such a tool should be capable of discovering all or most business visitors, with the advantage operating for all sources or
origins of the visitor.
This latter is required, as there are too many sources for providing
visitors on the Internet and too many sources for providing visitors
beyond the Internet from the real world also exist, sending visitors
from
conventional marketing methods.
Having just one tool for all is most practical in order to keep an
overview
and all in the same environment.
The requirement of capturing all business visitors, independently from their origin, eliminates the “Email Initiated Visitor Tracking” tools and systems, as they can only recognize the visitors pushed to the website by emails.
Reduce your lead generation costs significantly
A tool capable of discovering business visitors should reduce your lead generation costs significantly, as it:
- Works universally across all channels involved with your website as the crucial node
- Will be active 24 x 7
- Is an automated service with a low amount of human involvement required
- Limits your further required efforts as only the visiting Companies needs to be addressed for Leads Generation

Although the website has become the crucial node in all marketing,
it can act as a vacuum cleaner or as fishing net for catching your
leads.
Whatever type of website you have, in the end the getting customers is the real
thing.
