A Proven Lead Generation Process that Will Work

By Neil Baade


Leads are an essential element in developing any form of business successfully, whether it is a standard bricks and mortar company or an internet business. A dependable lead generation process is very important to the financial success of any company, whether big or small.

You might think a lead is a lead, but you are wrong. Getting a cold lead and a highly focused lead might cost the same, but the second is certainly much better.

During the selling procedure there needs to be a method to distinguish the qualified leads from the other, lesser leads that are not as targeted. Your conversion rates will be discouraging otherwise, you will get aggravated, and your company can fall to pieces. Don't fall into that trap.

Lead generation is going to be something you need to do every day, and you have got to learn how to attract quality leads effectively. Offline you will invest many hours meeting leads, driving to and from meetings, and making calls. If one of your systems of prospecting is gathering paper forms and fliers, all this data will need to be shifted through and placed into a database. More details to your leads in the form of sales brochures needs to be mailed, and then there's the qualifying process that needs to take place, adding more time and cost. After all of this, you then need to make a successful sell to that lead. That's the more old-fashioned technique, let's check out how it can be done today.

Article Promotion and Marketing as Your Lead Generation Process

First off, utilizing a lead generation process online provides you accessibility to a substantial number of people world-wide. Still, you should narrow it down to individuals who are most likely to be interested in what you have to provide.

You require an autoresponder. This will allow you to automate the follow-up procedure with your leads, and you will not have to always call your leads. This is an essential, must definitely have business tool. If you are not creating your own list, you are not building your business.

You require your own website or blogging platform so you can publish your articles. You want to create good quality articles that include beneficial info, information that your readers will find useful. You also want to target specific keywords in these posts. You will have to learn to shape your posts around these keywords, while still making them flow well for your readers.

At the end of these posts you want to have a transition paragraph and a call-to-action. This call-to-action will consist of a link that leads to your capture page.

Promote your post to rank on the search engines, and share it on social media websites such as Facebook, Twitter, Google plus, etc.

It will take money and time to promote your business properly. Like I mentioned earlier, you'll have to invest in your advertising tools (especially an autoresponder).

Too many people in internet marketing just quit too soon, and join the great majority of others who've failed. They then find themselves right back in a job, or even worse, jobless. So stick with it, and take massive action over an extensive period of time.

Let's do a swift recap.

- Target certain keywords that individuals are entering into the search engines, and that make sense for your business niche

- Produce helpful content that has your keyword spread throughout

- Utilize a call-to-action at the end of your content that links to a lead capture page and has your autoresponder tied into it.

- Promote your content to rank on the search engines

Why utilize this lead generation process? Due to the fact that the internet runs on search, and this will give you much better targeted leads that improves your chances of getting a sale; and it will develop your list.
