Lead Scoring

Lead scoring is a statistical method that is usually used by sales and marketing departments to rank prospects in a measure that estimates the value that each lead can bring to an organization.

The final score is used to understand how close a prospect or customer is to making a purchase to determine who the company should focus on first and take an action to get this client to make a purchase.

This way, lead scoring models enable an organization to identify a potential client based on their purchase stage and interest level. It can assign values on any scale, for example, from 1 to 5  or from “not interested” to “extremely interested”. The benefits of lead scoring are improved efficiency and effectiveness of marketing and sales as well as revenue growth.
