Measure Lead Scoring Performance

[Anonymous]

How do you measure lead scoring performance in your organization today? 

How often do you adjust your scoring model?

Hi Patrick,

It definitely depends on your situation. I usually watch this about once a month and then adjust the MQL threshold. I then reported on the number of leads which MQLd > Passed to Sales > SAL > Opps > Won

If you've had your model running for a bit, then you should be able to do some testing to see what behaviors, scores, etc are driving the Won$.

I have a couple of posts on this

which may help you.

Josh is right, it definitely depends on your business situation. We usually measure our lead scoring performance based on a blend of feedback from sales, funnel contribution, opportunity conversion rates, and opp win/loss ratios. How often you change your scoring model really depends on your sales cycle. You don't want to make major changes too often/consecutively within your business's typical sales cycle or you'll have difficulty measuring its performance accurately.
