- As a team, come to a consensus about what yoru ABC leads are. A Leads - Qualified, Your ICP and IAP, do quick demo there. B Leads - Schedule a Demo. C Leads - Nurture campaign Qualifying Criteria: What determines if a lead is qualified? Try to pinpoint the questions that tell you in the first 2 minutes of conversation if this person is an A/B/C lead. Find out what their role is in the company, if they are associated with the department you target/can give you an intro, if they even know what your product is Identify Warning Signs - this happens at every event, you will get a lot of people who are just checking things out and aren’t really leads. While you’re talking to them, two valuable A leads could be walking by and you may miss them completely. You need to find out as quickly as possible whether they are your ICP or not. If they aren’t, you need to think of a way to get out of the conversation ASAP: get their business card, gracefully say thank you and you will keep in touch. Or, offer your business card and say thank you for taking the time to stop by. If you need to take quick notes, collect business cards and write the info on the back of the card. It will help with personalizing your messaging later; don’t underestimate the power of pen and paper/card!

- If you prepped beforehand by segmenting your leads and prepping your 5 touchpoint follow up campaign, this entire process will take 5 minutes. Once you hit send, everything is managed for you. Decide if you want to Semi-Automate it so you can review before sending, or fully automate the process so you can set it and forget it. At PersistIQ we like to give you the option to choose; we do prefer that you personalize your outbound and review. But otherwise, have a great time at SaaStr!
