5 Common Lead Management Mistakes and How Ledsak Solves Them

Successful lead management is the heartbeat of any business experiencing growth. No matter whether you are a startup, ecommerce business, or a small business, navigating and managing your leads successfully can dictate how quickly your growth prospects come to a halt. But, so many businesses make avoidable mistakes that they don’t even realize, resulting in lost opportunities and worse conversions than it should be! In this article, we’ll present you with 5 common lead management failures, the mistakes behind them, and explain how LEDSAK, an all-in-one small business CRM, solves them using leading automation tools.

Lead Management is not only about collecting names, email addresses, and contact details anymore. Today, lead management is building their experience, creating meaningful engagement, drawing data-driven conclusions on these leads, and responding to them in real-time, even with their automation systems.

Despite lead management being easier than it has ever been with the tools that are readily available, many businesses—especially small businesses and ecommerce brands—continue to struggle. LEDSAK is a very powerful automation software tool that can help your business with lead management quickly and easily.

Did you know that 72% of customers buy—once they are ready—from the first company who responds? There is little debate that slow response time is the biggest killer of lead conversion. If leads are created or entered into your system and sit to go cold, you have lost that lead forever! Sets of leads or customer data to act on are like milk or cheese; they have expiration dates!

How LEDSAK resolves it: LEDSAK helps to utilize an automatic lead follow up system that communicates with leads immediately by using pre-set workflows, and assures that every inquiry gets a message- quickly, minutes not hours You can set it up to include:

• Instant email and SMS reply
• WhatsApp automation that interacts with your conversations
• Alerts for your sales agents It’s simple; quicker follow-ups = more conversions.

A common misconception is that once a lead raises their hand they are as committed as a buyer. This is seldom the case. For most leads it takes time for them to learn about, build trust and need multiple touchpoints before they are ready to have conversations about purchases.

How LEDSAK resolves it: With LEDSAK, you can create automated drip campaigns that nurture your leads through the entire buyer’s journey. These can include:

• Emails that are personalized
• Education videos on your products
• Testimonials and case studies This type of automated CRM helps warm up cold leads, build trust and shorten your sale cycle.

If you use a different tool for your email marketing, lead capture, customer data, follow-ups, etc., then the fragmented manual processes are not only confusing but inefficient as well. You waste time flipping between platforms and you risk losing vital lead information.

How LEDSAK addresses this: LEDSAK integrates everything an owner-manager needs to run an effective sales-centric system within an all-in-one CRM for small business and includes:

• Lead capture forms
• Marketing automation
• Contact management
• Task and pipeline tracking Everything is on one system, which minimizes manual work, guarantees what you have is all integrated with no data silos, and that is the only option for automating within a small business.

If you do not know where your leads come from, and how they interact with your business you have no chance of optimizing your sales or marketing strategy.

How LEDSAK addresses this: LEDSAK has reporting and analytics capabilities so you can see:

• Lead source attribution (ads, social, organic, etc)
• Activity timelines (email opens, link clicks, site visits)
• Sales performance tracking. With this information, you can ramp up what works and drop what doesn't. That is the beauty of LEDSAK as an automation management platform and tool.

If your marketing and sales teams are not aligned, don't share lead data, or have a coordinated action plan to achieve their goals, you will suffer as a team in terms of lost opportunities. This misalignment leads to wasted time with lead leakage, redundancy and friction between sales and marketing.

How LEDSAK addresses this: LEDSAK creates an aligned ecosystem for your sales and marketing team to built into their daily workflow and agency; including:

• Lead status and tracking in real time
• Collaboration on the campaign performance
• To set their common goals and KPIs.

This synergy guarantees that customers will not encounter a gap between each stage of the lead-to-customer journey.
