Introduction
Welcome to our the first edition of the Focus Marketing & Sales Book of Funnels. We are very excited about what we have created and the foundation it lays for future editions. Focus.com CEO Scott Albro manages his executives with a simple adage: “Put it in a one-page picture.” The concept of the one-page picture becomes a brilliant exercise for Scott’s department heads to create a sensible framework for how their department will function. Depicting a marketing or sales process in a single picture is just as challenging, and brings similarly powerful results. To create this book, Focus.com reached out to its Focus Expert Network and asked members to submit their version of the funnel. We gave them no instructions about what the funnel should look like, only that it had to fit on one page. I think you will have as much fun as we did seeing the results, from Carlos Hidalgo’s “stairstep” picture to a traditional funnel from Jon Miller to a “cloud” from Mike Damphousse to the “champagne glass” from Michael Brenner. Every organization should make the effort to depict its revenue funnel on one page. It serves as the basis of your sales and marketing strategy; once you understand your funnel, you are better informed about what metrics you should concentrate on, resource decisions and planning. I have two hopes from this exercise: 1) that there are some thought-provoking ideas for you to take back to your organization, and 2) that you create such a terrific funnel you can be included in the Book of Funnels Part II, which will have five times as many submissions as we received for this one. Special thanks to all of our contributors, Focus.com Sales Development Manager Sarah Miller and Contributing Editor Alec Wagner. We hope you enjoy the Focus Marketing & Sales Book of Funnels. — Craig Rosenberg, Leader, Focus Expert Network Focus / Experts’ Guide / Sales and Marketing Pipeline and Funnel Models Focus Research ©2010 2

Readjust Your Perspective
to the B2B Buyers’ Experience Instead of orienting your funnel to a sales perspective, focus the stages of the funnel on your B2B buyers’ experience. When your funnel is focused on meeting the needs of all the people involved in the decision, you’ll see a swelling in the middle, instead of the constriction that indicates fallout in traditional funnels. The Buyer-Experience Funnel: • Interest: Get prospects to take a look at what you offer. • Attention: Convince them to opt-in. Notice that fallout occurs here when they choose to continue or not. • Value: Instantly recognizable value increases willingness to engage. • Engagement: Prospects spend more time еня н пряг ет н личие Value до покупки - по кр йней мере речь нужно вести про восприним емую ценность (из отзывов, обзоров, и т.п.), но все and mind-share with your content. р вно не совсем декв тный термин. • Buying committee involvement: Your funnel swells as influencers interact to gain consensus. • Conversations: Sales steps in to drive momentum to purchase based on interests expressed. The funnel narrows to core decision-maker participation. • Purchase: Buyers choose to partner with your company. толщение, не уменьшение, потому что эт пы не по отсеив нию лидов, по осуществляемым действиями и их весе в воронке соответственно. — Ardath Albee, CEO and B2B Marketing Strategist at Marketing Interactions, www .focus .com/profiles/ardath-albee/public/ Focus / Experts’ Guide / Sales and Marketing Pipeline and Funnel Models Focus Research ©2010 4

The Division Between
Marketing and Sales Is a Myth To our customers, there is no such thing as a funnel. Marketing and salespeople use the funnel to depict Start Earlier in Buying Cycle how we manage demand through different phases. INQUIRIES But there is no hard distinction. In some cases, sales generates inquiries and marketing can close revenue without salespeople getting involved (e-commerce). So what does this mean for the traditional funnel? The traditional funnel is marketing-focused with a LEADS large top in a wide V-shape, like a martini glass. • Because customers buy from brands that they trust, we need to focus on engaging potential customers in a relationship earlier in the buying process, even prior to a demand signal. PIPELINE • We must remove the false distinction between marketing and sales funnels. There is just one funnel from contact to sale, aligned to customer needs. • When we deliver against customer needs, our efficiency increases as we convert more inquiries PURCHASE to leads and more leads to revenue. This happens because customers tell us when they are ready to buy and our funnel is built to move them through д льше? нтересно, к к SAP Continue the buying process. видит тот процесс. корее пок After Sale • This creates a funnel shaped more like a Drive More Efficient не видит, потому что д льше champagne flute that drives efficient demand on a Demand & Less Leakage не покупки, отношения (с ппорт continuous basis.

The Days of
the Funnel Are Thing of the Past With the advent of social, sales and marketing 2.0 techniques and tools, optimized inbound marketing strategies, and a much more sophisticated buyer, the days of a funnel are gone. • Buyers put themselves in the funnel where they want to be. They jump around. The influence of content and word of mouth jumps them from side to back and down again. • The demand-gen funnel is now in the cloud. As marketers, we must constantly measure the status of the cloud and make adjustments. We must combine strategies and tactics in order to maximize our results. • We harness the chaos to our advantage. We control the demand-gen cloud. — Michael Damphousse, CEO/CMO of Green Leads LLC, www .focus .com/ profiles/michael-damphousse/public/ то уже д же не путь потребителя (вместо воронки) это ш т ние по брендиров нным и соцмедийным полям в поиске ответов и решений. бл чно орг низов нный х ос... м..

The ‘Living Funnel’
Responds to Business Changes • Manticore approaches the funnel in an integrated manner. Sales and marketing must work together to generate demand. In our funnel, marketing focuses on three components: • Delivering a consistent flow of qualified leads to sales • Helping sales close more deals through sales-enabled lead nurturing programs • Delivering value-added content to prospects at various stages of the pipeline to keep Manticore top-of-mind. • Through this approach our teams become heavily dependent on one another. The sales and marketing team work together on content and messaging for the various nurtures. The funnel at Manticore Technology is a living object that changes as business conditions evolve — Christopher Doran, VP of Marketing at Manticore Technology, www .focus .com/ profiles/christopher-doran/public/ л ссик . етро...

Engage Your Customers
to Create Evangelists This funnel puts as much emphasis on the bottom as the top. Why? Customers are in the community you are trying to engage. You want to engage the community, but you also want to create customer evangelists to engage the community on your behalf. • This funnel focuses on building community to convert targeted prospects into leads. • After purchase, the goal is to convert customers to evangelists through added value and community development. • In this funnel, ultimately “community” and “evangelists” overlap when the evangelists go back into the community to advocate for your brand. • This funnel has marketing engaged much deeper than traditionally–way into lead nurturing, and then picking up customers as they come out the other end, to develop customer-focused community. • Since this funnel starts with community, it incorporates all organizations within the company that are customer-facing: marketing, sales, support, success and executives. есьм примеч тельн н ч льным пунктом — Barbra Gago, Social Media Manager of Cloud9 Analytics, www .focus .com/profiles/barbra-gago/public/ воронки - сообществом (форум и т.п.). ействительно, инфоз просы многих сегодня н чин ются н этих площ дк х, где клиент может более к чественно мотивиров ться к конверсии. олько стоит доб вить, что двок т м ст новятся не все, от силы 1-5% от клиентов (не лидов!), но и их р боты иногд хв т ет для поддержки всех клиентов.

View Your Funnel
from Above • At 28Marketing, we imagine a viewed- from-above image of the traditional sales funnel. • Looking at the progression of prospect to lead to opportunity, we realized that old models didn’t conform to today’s buyer behavior, where customers may engage with the company at various levels, become viable sales leads earlier or later than we would expect, or even become longer or shorter duration sales. • The new 28Marketing funnel looks down into the buying system, where individuals, companies, leads and customers accumulate at levels, spend time there, and then move forward or backward, depending on their needs, interest and the ability of our company to serve them. — Steve Gershik, CEO of 28Marketing, www .focus .com/profiles/steve-gershik-1/ public/ риви льно, но в тренде Focus / Experts’ Guide / Sales and Marketing Pipeline and Funnel Models Focus Research ©2010 9

Lead Scoring, Progressive
Nurturing Promote Qualified Leads • To increase revenue and shorten your sales cycle, put together a clearly defined and agreed-upon lead management process with marketing automation and sales force automation tools. • To reach targeted sales and marketing leads, be sure your lead-nurturing campaigns are based on content that is segmented, mapped to their interests, and relevant to their stage in the buying cycle. • Progressive nurturing develops a comprehensive dossier on leads in the pipeline. That, combined with lead scoring, will provide you with a list of leads that are more qualified and ready to send to sales. • Avoid missed opportunities by ensuring that leads deemed “not ready” are given a second chance by returning them to a nurturing campaign. • An effective lead-management process, combined with market automation and SFA tools, makes it easier to identify opportunities to up-sell and cross-sell. • This combination of “people and process” not only gives you clearer visibility into the pipeline, it makes it possible to measure accurately marketing’s impact and the ratio of marketing spend to revenue earned. коринг - это сил ! рогр ссивное н пр вление кл ссического прод ющего м ркетинг , не имиджевого / репут ционного. — Sue Hay, CEO of BeWhys Marketing Inc ., www .focus .com/profiles/sue-hay-1/public/, Focus / Experts’ Guide / Sales and Marketing Pipeline and Funnel Models Focus Research ©2010 10

Expand Each End
of the Funnel for Long-term Yield • You want a funnel that represents far more than the active sales cycle. Include various stages of prospect engagement based on your understanding of their current needs, problems and triggers. • For every qualified, ready-to-buy lead you manage, you likely also have three to five qualified but not-ready-to-buy leads. Have a strategy to engage them where they are, until 1) they’re ready to move forward, or 2) they understand and trust you well enough to engage. • The traditional sales funnels also only reflect half of the story. What about repeat purchases? Referrals? Word-of- mouth opportunities that turn one sale into four? That first sale may be the narrow part of the funnel, but if you know what you’re doing it widens again significantly from there. Renewals, repeat purchases, referrals, and so forth. • Worry today about how much you can naturally drive through the middle, but put even more focus long-term on expanding each end of the funnel to maximize long-term yield. кцент н постпокупочных действиях, и в ч стности н возвр те и лояьлности. — Matt Heinz, Principal at Heinz Marketing LLC, www .focus .com/profiles/matt-heinz/public/ Focus / Experts’ Guide / Sales and Marketing Pipeline and Funnel Models Focus Research ©2010 11

Make Lead Nurturing
Part of Your Equation The development of a funnel starts with the revenue that marketing needs to produce to help sales meet their quota. Organizations can then work backward through every stage to determine what is needed to meet these goals. • This must be a collaborative effort between marketing and sales to determine the goals and percentages of conversion (benchmark metrics will be key for conversion goals). Then both marketing and sales will be able to track success, see where any weak links are and improve planning and budgeting. орошо р спис но и пок з но • In addition to linear lead planning, воронк по убыв нию кв лифи companies must begin to develop a цируемых лидов н к ждом из funnel approach with lead nurturing as эт пов. part of the equation. Nurturing will affect all areas of marketing and sales including lead forecasting, forecasting for quota attainment, ROI analysis and marketing budget allocation. • The nurturing component will improve the lead quality and also provide a lead pipeline that will be managed by marketing. — Carlos Hidalgo, President of The Annuitas Group, www .focus .com/profiles/carlos-hidalgo/public/ Focus / Experts’ Guide / Sales and Marketing Pipeline and Funnel Models Focus Research ©2010 12

Keep Leads Moving
through Your Funnel Marketo’s funnel is key to the success of our organization. Some important details to note: • Don’t let leads sit in any one place in the funnel. Leads should be moving – making sure they are not forgotten and that you can measure results of programs and processes. • Learning is a two-way process. Use lead nurturing to educate prospects about your marketing, and actively learn about prospects’ preferences and needs as they interact with your content. • Automate the process by using lead scoring to move leads to the next stage. Encourage engagement with lead nurturing. • Lead recycling is powerful — it allows sales to spend their time with the best leads and utilizes marketing to develop the sales pipeline for the coming months. — Jon Miller, Vice President of Marketing at Marketo, www .focus .com/profiles/jon-miller/public/ Focus / Experts’ Guide / Sales and Marketing Pipeline and Funnel Models Focus Research ©2010 13

Buyers 2 .0:
Blazing Their Own Trail • Buyers determine their own ‘funnel’ path: It’s common to conceptualize the buying process as a ‘funnel,’ but Buyer 2.0 doesn’t move in such a linear or predictable fashion; rather, buyers move at their own pace, based on content consumed and on organizational priorities. • Nurturing = an iterative loop: Our nurturing of buyers thus should be more of an iterative process of educating and learning more about them, and then providing them with the information and insights necessary to move their buying process forward. This looks more like a loop than a funnel. • Marketing automation + demand generation strategy = core components: Marketing automation (see yellow boxes) serves as the critical infrastructure for enabling this type of dynamic, buyer- driven B2B nurturing, and demand generation strategy is the architecture that determines the interactions and that governs your content-based nurturing. — Adam Needles, VP of Demand Generation Strategy at Left Brain Marketing, www .focus .com/profiles/adam-needles/public/ орошее з меч ние про множественные точки вход лид в воронку взр щив ния его до кв лифициров нного лид .

Tomorrow’s Surface-Feeders • The sales team creates value by attaining or exceeding its revenue, gross margin, and product mix objectives. • To help sales succeed, we need to help them focus their most precious resource (time) on the best sales opportunities. • “Best” can mean many things, e.g., the highest average selling price, most profitable accounts, interest in a new strategic product line, or simply the most “ready to buy.” • We can sometimes buy quality leads, but every company needs to build the process acumen that makes sales success repeatable. • Notice that in the graphic, the sales VP is “fishing” at the top of the barrel of leads, not wasting precious time on the “bottom-feeders” (who are tomorrow’s е понятно, что это з подход. риви льно. surface-feeders). • The result is a money multiplication machine that efficiently converts marketing investments into leads, leads into deals, and deals into revenue. — Tom Scearce, Principal at Scearce Market Development, www .focus .com/profiles/tom-scearce/public/ Focus / Experts’ Guide / Sales and Marketing Pipeline and Funnel Models Focus Research ©2010 15

Follow the Four
R’s: Reach, Responses, Relationships and Revenue In today’s Web-enabled market, buyers are more informed than ever, directly accessing information about the market, your competition, and, most importantly, your solutions. With tools like social media, sales also gets involved much earlier in the process. Plus, with tools like marketing automation, marketing remains involved much longer in the process. The funnel no longer begins with known prospects. By tracking prospects above the funnel, marketing can accurately score leads, place them in the appropriate nurturing path and track ROI from initial click to deal close; while sales can appropriately follow up with ready prospects. The “Four R’s” allow marketers to: • Extend reach with social media, online ads and paid search; • Elicit responses to drive prospects to their Web site; • Build relationships through intelligent lead nurturing; • Drive more revenue by better-arming sales with truly sales-ready leads. еплох я сводк , но не более того. — Matt West, Director of Marketing at Genius .com, www .focus .com/profiles/matt-west/public/ Focus / Experts’ Guide / Sales and Marketing Pipeline and Funnel Models Focus Research ©2010 16

Define Buying Stages
and Look at Conversion Rates • The main goal in building a model of the buying funnel is to provide a framework for analyzing marketing’s effect on revenue. Different campaigns trigger different actions. All valuable, but measuring their value requires a different approach than in simple buying processes. • The first key step is to understand where each person is in the buying process and that the stages of the funnel will differ between businesses. • Once buying stages are defined, you can look at conversion rates to understand the value of a lead at different stages. For example, if a deal is worth $10,000, and an MQL has a 10 percent conversion rate to a deal, it is worth $1,000. (Values are based on the conversion rate of the funnel stage through to close.) • With this established, it is possible to see the value of a buyer’s movement through the funnel. For example, if a buyer moves from “mildly interested” ($100/lead) to “marketing qualified lead” ($1,000/lead), очти ясно кцентиров но поним ние р зличия потребителского цикл /пути и воронки their value has increased by $900. прод ж - это р зные процессы н стороне потребителя и комп нии соотв, которые нужно еще д птиров ть друг к другу. • If a campaign triggered that transition, the easiest way to look at the value of the marketing campaign is that it added that much value to your lead funnel. — Steve Woods, Chief Technology Officer of Eloqua, www .focus .com/profiles/steve-woods/public/, Focus / Experts’ Guide / Sales and Marketing Pipeline and Funnel Models Focus Research ©2010 17
