How are you currently communicating with leads, building your customer base or enhancing customer loyalty? If you’re like most businesses, email is an important part of your conversational strategy. But have you thought about using Short Message Services (SMS) or business text messaging? You should! 

Your marketing team works hard to attract prospects from various digital channels (such as search engines, social media, and ads) and drive them to your website to see what you have to offer. Your web developer also works hard to optimize your website so that visitors are intrigued about your product and fill out a form for more information.  Then, it's your sales team's turn. Are they ready? 

In today’s convenience-focused world, it doesn’t get much better than texting. Nearly everyone has a cell phone, I'll bet your smartphone is within arms reach right now. And unlike an email inbox, which is likely filled with dozens of long, unopened emails, text messages are nearly always opened and read. In fact, according to reports from Mobile Marketing Watch, emails have a mere 22% open rate whereas text messages have an off-the-charts open rate of 98%. According to another study, an astounding 90% of all text messages are read within 3 minutes of being received.

Lead generation is a fundamental part of business success. And successful lead generation is all about being able to convert those leads to customers. To do that well, studies show that you need to respond to inbound leads quickly - within 5 minutes - and create a positive customer experience. An inbound lead call response tool can help you achieve both, and make it easier to convert those leads to paying customers!

Time is money, especially for your sales team. The longer a salesperson waits to contact an interested lead, the less likely they will close the deal. Salespersons who contact potential customers within an hour of receiving a message were nearly seven times as likely to qualify the lead as those who waited to call after an hour. The optimal lead response time is five minutes or less. 

You know it’s important to respond to leads quickly, and that lead-to-call automation can help. But the truth is, that’s just one part of your overall automated lead follow-up system.
