TV and radio ad, for instance. Based on results, it allows you to optimize ad spend moving
forward.
2. Easily test creative
Many businesses send the same direct mail piece to their entire market, when they should be
testing different messages and offers to understand which one resonates best. You can place a
unique phone number on each marketing piece for easy A/B testing to determine which
advertisement generated the best results.
3. Localize your message
You can know exactly what marketing piece prompted a phone call when you use call tracking
numbers. It is valuable to create customized greetings like: "Thanks for viewing our ad in USA
Today and calling to learn more about our XYZ product." It makes the interaction unique and
personal.
4. Leverage the most qualified sales representatives
Call tracking works for online and traditional offline advertising. By placing a unique call tracking
number on a print ad, billboard, or radio commercial, you can ensure those leads are then
routed to the most appropriate sales representative based on qualifying questions.
If you're focusing on online campaigns, you can place distinct tracking numbers on banner ads
for search engines, social media ads, e-mail marketing and classifieds pages. One company
might obtain more value from advertising on Twitter versus LinkedIn, so measuring the
performance of each campaign can help you make more valuable marketing decisions and
maximize ROI.
Ultimately, if you don't use call tracking numbers, you don't know what ads are generating the
highest quality and quantity of leads.
Get Higher Quality Leads Through Marketing Automation
Marketing automation is formally described as "the use of technology to generate, nurture,
score, and qualify leads and drive sales using customized multi-touch marketing
communications tailored for each lead in the buying process." Traditional marketing automation
activities, however, often fail to include the phone -- when it is actually a crucial part of
business.
It is important for marketers to understand that phone calls are often the highest quality form of
lead. People who are ready to buy now pick up the phone and call; people in research mode
typically go to a website to learn more. Leveraging call tracking data enables marketers to
qualify these leads that come in (was it through a Google search, the website, or a direct mail
piece?), which can then quickly be routed to the right person depending on location and/or
needs.
For instance, inbound interactive voice response (IVR) technology can be used to provide
callers with information automatically, or to ask them initial questions to better direct their call.
Automating appointment reminders, for example, can help reduce time so employees can
concentrate on other efforts. If someone fills out your contact form online, you can also
automatically call that person to verify their phone number, ask a few qualifying questions, or
play an informational message.
Businesses should assess their current integrated marketing strategy to ensure it includes the
key elements of voice communications. Tracking phone calls and engaging in marketing
automation through voice communication empowers companies to effectively route leads,
optimize ad spend, provide more personalized marketing and ensure they are truly facilitating
integrated campaigns
