Manually Qualifying Leads
1. Accessing Lead Data

Focus on the following key attributes to help you qualify leads effectively:

- First Seen and Last Seen: A longer engagement history might indicate a higher level of interest.
4. Assigning Lead Tags and Notes
In Web2Chat, you can add lead tags and lead notes to conversations to categorize leads based on their potential. Tags can be used to segment leads by characteristics such as interest level, lead source, or product interest. Notes can capture specific details discussed during the interaction, allowing for personalized follow-ups.
5. Engaging with Leads
After qualifying a lead, engage with them based on the insights gathered:
- Personalized Communication: Use the information from lead data to tailor your messages. For example, mention their location or previous interactions to make your outreach more relevant.
- Follow-Up Strategies: If a lead has not been contacted recently, plan a follow-up based on their last seen data. This helps keep the conversation going and shows that you value their interest.
6. Continuous Monitoring
Lead qualification is an ongoing process. Regularly review and update lead data as you gather more information from interactions. This ensures that your lead database remains current and relevant, allowing for more effective engagement strategies.
By utilizing Web2Chat’s lead data effectively, you can manually qualify leads and enhance your customer support experience. Understanding your leads better enables your team to build meaningful relationships, ultimately leading to higher conversion rates and customer satisfaction.
