You Won’t Need Leads If You Convert More Trial Customers

Is your lead generation ROI falling short of expectations? You may be concentrating too much on generating leads than converting them.

The lifetime value of a loyal customer is essential for steady profitability. Focusing too much on acquiring leads can force some of your best customers to fall through the cracks.

Does this revelation mean you have to dump lead generation altogether? Absolutely not. It’s about fine-tuning your strategy, so you can get the most from the leads you already have.

If you think you need leads, let’s take a look at what’s there. Here are a few ways to convert your existing leads before restarting your lead-generating machine.

Craft a High-Converting Email Marketing Strategy

Of all the marketing strategies, email marketing is the most effective for lead nurturing. You can craft email content for each stage of the lead journey, from initial awareness to the decision-making stage.

Suppose you have a web visitor who filled up their shopping cart and left. Don’t let that valuable lead disappear. Send a friendly automated email reminding that visitor about their abandoned cart.

If the lead bites and finalizes their purchase after the email reminder, send a thank you email immediately. Adding a personal touch to lead marketing increases trustworthiness.

Don’t Bail After Converting a Lead

The work isn’t over once you convert a lead into a customer. Your job is just beginning. You need to craft a separate marketing strategy for converted leads.

Let new customers know that you appreciate their business. Blast out exclusive promotional offers and discounts to your converted leads. Thank customers for their continued support throughout the year.

Create Incentives for Leads
