Sales pipeline leaking more than a sieve in a rainstorm?
We’ve all been there.
Sometimes leads slip through the cracks, but when every missed opportunity hurts, you need to get to know your trusty toolkit to plug the gaps.
Here are our top eight tools to get that pipeline looking healthy again.
Google Analytics for lead source simplicity
While not known as a sales tool, Google Analytics is a powerful resource for understanding your website's performance and the behavior of your online audience. It’s entirely free to use and chances are your Marketing team is already using it so can support you in finding what you need.
By analyzing website traffic and user interactions, you can gain insights into which marketing channels are driving the most qualified leads to your sales pipeline. This information allows you to allocate resources effectively and focus on the channels that are most likely to deliver high-converting leads. Google Analytics shows how your traffic converts so you can pinpoint pipeline leakage points. Use custom goal and funnel settings for deeper insights.
Dealfront to track your sneaky site leads
Not all potential leads come directly to your sales team. And because of this, you may be leaking prospects at the very start of your pipeline. Many visitors explore your website without taking immediate action. Dealfront helps you identify these anonymous website visitors and turn them into actionable leads. By tracking the companies that visit your site and analyzing their behavior, you can proactively reach out to interested prospects. This tool can be a game-changer in reducing pipeline leakage by capturing leads that might otherwise slip through the cracks.
Its real-time alerts notify your Sales team to engage promising prospects, so you can capture leads you'd otherwise miss and reduce leakage.
PlanHat to see a whole new world
PlanHat provides automated lead engagement and sales cadence software. It tracks lead activity across multiple channels like email and phone, with live notifications.
One of its standout features is its central dashboard, which offers real-time insights into your pipeline's health. You can easily identify bottlenecks, drop-offs, and conversion rates at each stage of your pipeline. Then, when you’ve found your gaps, you can automate follow-ups, set reminders, and customize your sales processes to make that pipeline watertight. This is a real must-have.
Grow BI for data that means business
You can’t really know how your pipeline is performing without access to accurate and up-to-date data. Grow Business Intelligence is a powerful analytics platform that allows you to visualize your sales data, track KPIs, and make data-driven decisions. Its real-time visualizations give visibility into every stage and help identify stuck or stalled opportunities. Grow lets you analyze win/loss ratios to see where leads may be slipping away.
