SPE is the strategy to optimise your CRM and get the full benefit from marketing automation for consistent, high-value lead generation.
The process matches the buyer’s own process, to deliver the information, service and contact that buyers need at each stage in their ‘journey’ to discover, understand and then make the decision to select and buy your product or service solution.
Key stages in the agreed process are then automated using a CRM system, to deliver information, capture prospect data, prompt the sales team and provide metrics – to optimise lead generation and new business development.
The Theory of Constraints is used to find and resolve problems in the process at key stages – such as in market targeting, lead generation or conversion.
