The Case for Trade Show Leads Processing
• The marketing function in any organization is responsible for generating leads and sending them to sales.
• Every organization has a set of rules (formal or informal) to identify which leads should be pursued and which should be ignored.
• There are a number of leads sources and for all but one, the organization is in control of the quality and form of the data – trade shows and events.
• All your competitors at the show have the same leads so time is critical.

“BANT criteria (budget, authority, timing, and need) have limited usefulness since buyers’ answers to those questions are notoriously inaccurate, and as we all know, people’s actions speak louder than their words. This means you should also track a lead’s behaviors so you can you measure their interest and engagement in your solution. “ ReachForce & Marketo - 101 B2B Marketing and Sales Tips from The B2B Lead
Lead Scoring and Rating Rules
• ∑ (Question weighting) x (Answer Value)
– A lead ≥ Total A
– B Lead ≥ Total B
– C Lead < Total B
• Question / Answer Combo
– IF / AND /OR logic
• Filtering leads by a single variable is easy but rating leads based on many criteria is complex!

Trade show leads qualification and data formats vary by show and are not defined by the organization. This results in delays and added costs to integrate with the leads system.
Use of Custom Qualifiers can mitigate the problems and increase ROI of the leads.
