Avoid Making These Mistakes In Lead Generation

Business owners in Singapore are privileged to be established in a business-minded and forward thinking state. And certain opportunities to increase lead generating strategies may cause them to commit avoidable mistakes in the course of finding leads. Here are 3 don'ts in lead generation to avoid making those mistakes.

Don't overcorrect.

If your previous lead generation marketing plan lost a lot of potential sales leads because you had too little inbound telemarketers to field the incoming calls, don't be tempted to exaggerate your backup for your next telemarketing campaign. While having one or two reserves is good in case of sudden inbound call inflation, hiring too many telemarketers "just in case" would only increase your expenses. The best thing to do in this situation is to hire only what you can afford and field as much calls as your team can. This way, you would still be able to ensure the quality of your customer service and increase your chances of getting quantity qualified leads.

Don't forget creativity and innovation.

Just because a marketing plan proved to be effective, it doesn't mean that you should only use it for all your marketing campaigns. Singapore is a country rife with bright minds, so allow your team members to come up with other marketing strategies or even new product ideas. You might be surprised at what your brilliant minds can come up with.

Don't be a green-eyed business owner.

As your company grows, you will be tempted to try out every single marketing strategy that is popular in the business world. Perhaps you heard that competitor X used a so and so marketing strategy that got them hundreds of leads in just one day. Or you found out that competitor Y's b2b lead generation plan was incredibly cheap yet effective. While some lead generation marketing strategies could work for your business, not every lead generation strategy will be as effective for your company is it was for your competition. If your company is being sustained by leads from your telemarketing campaign, don't be eager to let it go just to transfer to a new marketing strategy.
