If you’re measuring lead generation success just by clicks or form fills, you’re missing the bigger picture.
Today’s modern B2B decision-makers, such as CMOs, IT VPs, and Marketing Directors, are demanding workflow transparency. They expect quality and real engagement with every lead sourced.
The reason: Many organizations don’t know how their leads are sourced.
This results in a wasted budget and lowers conversions, frustrating both the sales and marketing teams.
This blog gives you an inside look at what happens in a human-verified lead generation workflow. Focusing on verified content engagement, first-party data and compliance builds brand trust.
The Lead Gen Illusion: What Most Marketers Don’t Know
Most of the organizations rely on the following:
- Third-party vendors, data brokers, or automated scraping. Such scraping tools and vendors mine false data.
- These false data are outdated, unverified, and inaccurate. This results in low engagement, poor conversion, and wasted spending.
- Engagement metrics, like clicks or form fills, are often more misleading and are carried out by bots.
Why it is necessary to have a keen eye on the lead generation process
Gartner reports that bad data quality costs companies around $12.9 million each year. You deserve better.
Step-by-Step Inside the Modern Lead Generation Workflow
1. Target Identification: Reaching the Right Decision-Makers
- The lead gen process starts with your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP).
- Uses intent signals and first-party behavioral data.
- Powered by human-led account research, over purchased lists.
Vereigen Media uses a verified database with over 107 million continuously validated, consistently engaged first-party contacts.
2. Data Verification: Clean, Complete, Compliant
Automation has its place, but nothing surpasses the precision of the human element in lead validation. At Vereigen Media, over 200 in-house data experts manually verify every lead for:
- Every contact is manually verified.
- The data, such as email addresses, job titles, and phone numbers, are validated manually with your ICP.
- If the data does not align with your ICP, it is eliminated.
At Vereigen Media, we run our campaigns without outsourcing data. This builds trust and boosts conversion and ROI.
3. Intent Qualification: That Goes Beyond the Click
- Just clicking isn’t enough for the intent qualification. We rely on readers who stay and engage with your content.
- Tracking time spent on content, scroll depth, and engagement helps identify the real interested individuals.
4. Human Interaction: Conversations That Convert
- Human interaction is crucial in the lead generation workflow. It results in genuine engagement.
- Outreach by real interested people helps in building trust. Not proceeded by bots.
- Such real interaction leads to real conversion and real intent, ensuring it is sales ready.
5. Privacy-First, Consent-Backed Leads
- Opt-in privacy-first strategies that meet GDPR/CCPA regulations.
- Don’t avoid GDPR, CCPA, and other regulatory acts. Follow them strictly.
- Real leads are consent-based and privacy-compliant.
6. Lead Delivery: Actionable, Sales-Ready, Context-Rich
- Delivering verified, conversation-ready leads to you.
- Lead sourcing that includes job titles, verified contact info, company insights, and pain points that match your ICP is delivered.
- Including insights like buying stage, content consumed, and other pain points.
- Your sales team gets conversation-ready leads directly in your workflow, allowing for immediate follow-up.
7. Smarter Results: Optimizing with First-Party Feedback
- Feedback loop between your marketing and sales teams.
- Engagement data fuels better targeting, improving outreach and segmentation.
- Data is continuously verified and refreshed every 45 days to remove stale leads.
Red Flags: When Your Lead Source Isn’t Transparent
If you are receiving the data with unclear sourcing, no interacted data, and anonymous IPs. It’s time to ask questions to your lead gen provider.
- Where was this lead sourced from?
- Was it based on first-party engagement?
- How was the engagement verified?
- What engagement signals back it up?
If the provider can’t answer clearly, it’s time to reconsider.
