Lead Liaison Announces Free Lead Generation Tool Dubbed Website Visitor Converter

Lead LiaisonDallas, Texas – Lead Liaison, the leader in sales and marketing automation solutions, has added yet another free tool to their growing list of resources available to sales and marketers worldwide. The solution is appropriately named Website Visitor Converter.

Brad Froese, Director of Marketing, acknowledges one of the primary challenges marketers must overcome:

“Marketers are constantly trying to figure out what type of content to put on their website. They understand inbound marketing is a critical growth strategy. However, it’s hard to figure out where to draw the line. What should be given away for free and what should be gated?
Gated content should be valued enough by a visitor to exchange for their coveted email address. Once they’ve determined what that valuable “free” content is going to be, marketers can use Website Visitor Converter to gate it for free. They can also set up and manage passcodes, and easily style gated prompts to match corporate branding. It’s a really flexible plugin for any website built on the WordPress platform.”

The solution can operate in one of two ways. First, it can be used for free to gate valuable website content. Interested website visitors can provide their email address to access the content. Through an integration with a leading email validation provider, email addresses can be verified for authenticity prior to accessing the content. Alternatively, content can be gated by a pass code. The pass code can be handed out ahead of time and used to unlock access. Second, the solution can integrate with Lead Liaison’s sales and marketing automation platform. When a visitor provides their contact information, they can easily be added into an automated workflow or drip campaign.

Website Visitor Converter is a free, downloadable WordPress plugin available directly from the WordPress.org catalog, and can be downloaded here.

Lead Liaison Releases Trade Show Success Kit: How to Prepare For, Execute, and Evaluate a Successful Trade Show

Lead LiaisonDallas, Texas – Ever since Lead Liaison launched their event lead capture solution, GoExhibit!™, in 2017, the company has been hyper-focused on helping businesses achieve greater success at marketing events like trade shows and conferences. They achieve this by offering the most flexible lead capture solution on the market, as well as a copious amount of educational content they produce around trade shows and events. 

This week, they’ve released a kit containing their most popular trade show-related content which they’ve dubbed the Trade Show Success Kit

The Trade Show Success Kit contains a checklist to help marketing event managers stay organized when planning exhibitions at upcoming trade shows. The checklist gets down to the nitty-gritty with reminders for when to finalize lead retrieval, how to structure post-event workflows, and more. The checklist even includes a sample packing list and sample itinerary, because as Lead Liaison Director of Marketing Jen Worsham says, “It makes it so much easier to have all of those things in once place – especially during pre-event team meetings.”

Lead Liaison’s Trade Show Success Kit also contains a step-by-step guide to implementing an independent lead capture solution. “We wanted to include this because this always seems to be the biggest hurdle to cross when considering the use of lead capture outside of what the show organizer provides,” says Worsham. “There’s so much to benefit from when using a consistent lead capture method across all events, so we wanted to remove the only real obstacle: the unknown.”

For marketing event coordinators wondering what their role looks like during a B2B event, Lead Liaison also includes a list of 10 things event managers should be doing at the trade show. This list includes suggestions like, “find the show organizer contact to collect booth feedback” and “take a photo of your team at the booth for more personalized follow-up.” 

Post-event strategy is not missed in the Trade Show Success Kit. It also contains a Post-Show Questionnaire intended to assist in collecting feedback from team members after a show. And, if the return on investment (ROI) is a consideration (hint: it should be), then the resource, How to Evaluation ROI from a Trade Show, will prove to be extremely helpful. 

“Because of our hands-on approach to supporting our GoExhibit!™ clients, we live and breathe marketing events,” says Worsham. “Sure, using our lead capture solution aids in success. But, we know that’s not the only thing to consider when planning and executing a successful trade show. This kit covers it all!”

Event Lead Capture Provider Lead Liaison Unveils New Resources for Trade Show Event Planning

Lead LiaisonDallas, Texas – Lead Liaison, the powerhouse behind the event lead capture solution, GoExhibit!™, is set apart from competitors in the industry due to their extraordinary level of customer support. In true form, they released two helpful resources this week which are geared to help trade show coordinators prepare for high-steaks events.

Their Trade Show Preparation Checklist takes the stress out of preparing for trade shows by keeping track of responsibilities in a simplified checklist, along with tips on how and why each item should be completed. It’s extensivity makes the checklist an excellent tool for beginners as well as seasoned trade show planners. The resource also includes a Sample Packing List, as well as a Sample Team Itinerary.

“I use our Trade Show Preparation Checklist for every event we attend,” says Jen Worsham, Director of Marketing at Lead Liaison. “It was something I’ve formulated over the years, and it’s my number one planning resource. I am excited to share it with others in the industry.”

In addition to the checklist, Lead Liaison has just published a collection of Questions to Ask When Implementing Independent Lead Capture Software. A hesitation often encountered by trade show exhibitors, when considering the implementation of an independent lead capture solution, is how complicated it might be to integrate the solution with the show-appointed lead retrieval. 

It is a process that sounds more complicated than it is, so Lead Liaison *created* this resource, which can act as a phone script when speaking with show organizers and lead retrieval providers, to *clear the fog*. The phone script was compiled during research performed by the Lead Liaison event marketing team, speaking to dozens of show organizers and lead retrieval providers. Not only does it provide a list of questions, but also the background as to why the questions are necessary.

Lead Liaison Sales and Marketing Software Integrates with Slack

Lead LiaisonDallas, Texas – “Great work, team! We just closed a NEW DEAL!”

Imagine your team receiving this instant notification the minute a new deal closes. Would this elicit feelings of excitement, motivation, and inspiration across the staff? Would it encourage a little friendly competition between salespeople? Would it trigger the appropriate team members to complete deal-related tasks?

That is the intent behind Lead Liaison’s newest integration with team communication and collaboration software provider, Slack. Slack’s IPO has been one of the highlights of the stock market in 2019.

Lead Liaison’s software is used by marketing and sales teams worldwide to capture and manage trade show and event leads, automate marketing, and enable more efficient sales processes. The Slack integration enables the system to automatically post notifications for any number of reasons.

Or, whenever a contract is about to expire, Lead Liaison can remind your contracts team via the contracts channel. What if a V.I.P. lead is captured at your company’s biggest tradeshow and you want to share the news with your business development team on the #bizdev Slack channel? Possibilities are endless. The Lead Liaison and Slack integration fosters greater communication across organizations.

“This is one of those enhancements that we were really looking forward to, ourselves,” says Jen Worsham, Director of Marketing at Lead Liaison. “Not only was it a priority for many of our clients, we also knew we would benefit from better communication. We use our own software, as you can probably imagine. Automating Slack notifications as a part of our processes enables better communication and ultimately increases productivity.”

Lead Liaison Press Release

Lead Liaison Announces Next Iteration of Event Lead Management, GoExhibit!™

Dallas, Texas – Lead Liaison first launched their event lead capture solution, GoCapture!™, in October of 2017. They have rapidly become the global leader in event lead management. Today, they announce the next iteration of their solution, GoExhibit!™, which includes advances in customization, event creation workflow, enterprise-level ROI reporting, registration, check-in, upcoming Windows support, and more.

The company, known worldwide for their marketing and sales automation solutions, has been hyper-focused on supporting live marketing events over the last year. They started by answering the need for a better, more efficient way to capture leads. Antiquated badge scanners and arbitrary lead collection apps weren’t giving enterprise businesses everything they needed.

Lead Liaison designed a single solution that manages pre-event communication and preparation, onsite event lead capture, and intelligent post-event follow-up. The updates announced this week further distance GoExhibit!™ from competing solutions.

The enhancements allow companies to customize the lead capture experience with brand colors, logos, other custom content such as explainer videos or maps. Furthermore, GoExhibit!™ now provides enterprise-level reporting. The Events Dashboard allows users to track their events and measure ROI. Example data points include average cost per lead (CPL), revenue generated, return on investment, post-event engagement activity, and more.

GoExhibit!™ isn’t just for exhibitors. The solution also supports companies running their own events with a customizable check-in and registration system. An integration with Avery, announced last month, allows companies to customize and print badges in real-time, or prior to an event.

The GoCapture!™ app is compatible with iOS and Android smartphones and tablets with Windows support right around the corner. GoExhibit!™ integrates with all major CRMs (Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics, etc.), marketing automation platforms (HubSpot, Eloqua, Salesforce.com Marketing Cloud, etc.), analytics solutions (Domo, Revelation™, etc), and lead retrieval providers (Cvent, Experient, etc.).

To commemorate the release, Lead Liaison collected a host of resources for businesses interested in implementing this show-stopping solution. The Event Lead Management Kit contains many educational resources, including a detailed presentation of the features GoExhibit!™ has to offer.

Lead Liaison and Avery to Complement Event Lead Capture Solution

Dallas, Texas – Lead Liaison announces a relationship with Avery, the leading manufacturer of labels and badges. Known for their enterprise marketing and sales software, Lead Liaison is answering a significant need in the trade show industry as it relates to fully-integrated lead capture. The company launched an event lead management solution earlier this year, called GoExhibit!™, which is powered by their lead capture app, GoCapture!™.

GoExhibit!™ provides businesses with an end-to-end event lead management solution. Companies can use GoExhibit!™ to manage all pre-event communication, efficiently capture leads onsite, instantly sync data, and trigger post-event follow-up. What’s more, companies managing their own events can utilize GoExhibit!™’s registration and check-in feature, which integrates seamlessly with a badge solution powered by Avery.

“We are excited to work with Lead Liaison,” says Customer Success Manager, Brenda Dillon. “This is a perfect use case for Avery labels and badges. We are excited about the opportunity to further support businesses running their own marketing events. Lead Liaison automates the clerical work and helps put the final solution in the hands of the customer faster and more efficiently.”

Customer Success Manager at Lead Liaison, Ryan Schefke, adds “integrating Avery’s badge-making software was the right move for our customers. Instead of forking out $50K+ to other lead retrieval companies, we give show providers or companies wanting to run their own marketing event a do-it-yourself, or DIY, event setup. Avery’s badge capabilities are the perfect complement to our check-in, registration, and our barcode scanning app.”

Creating badges in GoExhibit!™ is easy. Badges can be created individually, to work alongside our registration and check-in solution. Or, they can be created in groups. One might need to create and print a Badge Group if they are looking to lay badges out on a table for attendees to pick up when they check in.

Avery can also print the badges on behalf of the company, utilizing their WePrint service.

Sales and Marketing Automation Solutions Provider Lead Liaison Celebrates Major Milestone

Dallas, TX – Lead Liaison officially opened for business in November 2013 with a clear vision: to help companies drive revenue by scaling sales and marketing. They made a splash with the introduction of a website visitor tracking solution. A few short months later, a fully integrated marketing automation solution was launched. Over the years, Lead Liaison has grown exponentially with last month marking five years in the industry.

Founder, Ryan Schefke, shares why he acted on his vision to create sales and marketing solutions that drive revenue. “I spent 15 years working for organizations, from large to small, that constantly had sales and marketing teams operating in silos. Most of my time was spent in the sales organization. I always wanted more leads, better quality leads, and software that could help me and my team do our jobs better.”

“I couldn’t handle the constant differences between sales and marketing teams and had to take action,” Schefke continues. “We first created a website visitor tracking solution because it’s an essential component that all businesses should have to support their sales and marketing. It’s the only way to close the loop on inbound and outbound activities as it ties it all together. We’ve evolved to be much more than that. When I reflect back over these five years on our progress, I’m blown away by the breadth of our portfolio and the number of businesses that have sought out our help to take them to the next level. We’re helping marketing teams, sales teams, and more importantly, we are helping both of them work better together – that’s the ultimate goal.”

From the beginning, Lead Liaison has focused on building a suite of solutions for marketing and sales teams. Last year they launched an event lead management solution, GoExhibit!™, which integrates seamlessly with almost any CRM or marketing automation platform – including their own marketing automation platform called Lead Management Automation (LMA)™ and their own CRM, aptly named OneFocus™. They’ve taken the market by storm, quickly becoming a leader in event lead management.

“Our focus on events started in October 2017 with our lead capture app, GoCapture!™. We’ve gone on to develop an end-to-end Event Lead Management (ELM) solution called GoExhibit!™, which is powered by our original app,” says Sam Darrell, VP Product Management at Lead Liaison. “We already provide incredible value to sales and marketing teams. Our enterprise customers were asking us for a solution that could replace antiquated badge scanners and poor quality OCR apps, while also integrating instantly with all other marketing and sales efforts.”

Also in recent months, Lead Liaison enabled advanced security features to support evolving online privacy regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Their Sales Enablement solution debuted in December 2017.

Lead Liaison has not wavered in their core values of simplicity, personalized and intimate support, and flexibility. Clients continue to benefit from this clear focus, and that is represented in top ratings on esteemed software review sites such as Capterra and G2 Crowd. The company is forecasting 2018 revenue growth to be double that of 2017, another indicator of stability and growth for a company that plans to be a force in the sales and marketing automation industry for years to come.

Broadleaf Commerce Chooses Lead Liaison to Execute Sales & Marketing Strategy

Dallas, TX – Broadleaf Commerce provides robust commerce solutions to support enterprise retail brands. They’ve recently been named in Inc. 5000’s List of Fastest-Growing Companies in America for the second year in a row. Their brand is rising to the top, and that’s no accident. The company practices effective and efficient strategies, both internally and externally, in order to compete.

Broadleaf has experience with marketing automation solutions outside of Lead Liaison. Prior to using Lead Liaison’s solutions, they used a competitor for email campaigns, website tracking, and social media. They started looking for an alternative solution that would enable them to do their wholistic prospecting and marketing automation within a single platform. They needed a solution that better aligned their sales and marketing team, with automation tools and the ability to personalize content.

After much research and consideration, Broadleaf Commerce chose Lead Liaison to replace their current marketing automation solution. In the video testimonial released this week, Broadleaf Commerce’s Chief Operating Officer, Brad Buhl, and his team speak to the reasoning behind that decision.

“Lead Liaison helps us have a single platform to look at visitor views into the website and their interaction with us, on a more passive basis,” says Buhl. “We’ve also gone through Sales Enablement with them, so now all of our emails are synced up with Lead Liaison from our sales team. We are able to get a full picture of when a customer comes in the door, what they click on, what they are interested in, and how we personally communicate with them.”

Lead Liaison’s Sales Enablement is one of two cutting-edge solutions the software provider brought to the table over the last year – the other being their innovative event lead management solution. Sales Enablement provides a suite of sales solutions designed to make salespeople’s lives easier.  It provides two-way email sync so reps never have to use Bcc addresses to get content into their CRM, a sales automation functionality called Rhythms to help reps book more meetings, and even more customization options.

From a sales velocity perspective, Lead Liaison’s solutions allow Broadleaf to see when their team starts working with a customer, how long it takes to close and what the steps are to get them closer to close. What’s more, they can zoom out even further and look at the leading indicators for how a lead originated, to getting to the point where the customer reaches out.

“When it comes to content creation and building emails,” says Cassandra Gaston, Marketing Specialist at Broadleaf Commerce, “I’m able to both use the editorial mode but also edit in HTML, which means that I can get as granular as I want to. When it comes to picking the right messaging for a campaign, you need to be able to get that granular.”

Broadleaf Commerce’s account executives also use Lead Liaison’s CRM and Sales Enablement functionality for organization and outreach purposes. Their marketing team uses Lead Liaison’s marketing automation and website visitor tracking solutions to create and distribute relevant and educational content, thus creating meaningful exchanges that build brand awareness. Their leadership team utilizes the reporting and analytics that come standard in Lead Liaison’s software.

“We have five people on our business development team,” say Nick Staargaard, Account Executive at Broadleaf Commerce. “We are competing against organizations that have thousands. By being able to use Lead Liaison in an effective manner, it allows us to compete with those bigger companies and really brings us to the forefront of that competition where we are being recognized by bigger companies now.”

The collaboration between departments gives Broadleaf a lot of insight into their prospects and the kind of information they should be leading with when they make contact.

“In order to do a lot, you have to spend a lot,” says Buhl. “But with Lead Liaison, you can do a lot without having to spend a lot. That’s not only in the price of the software, but it’s in the time that you have to consume in order to get there.”

This video testimonial, plus many more, are available here.
