TheCriticalBlindSpot:TwofoldProblem
1. Marketers don’t know what sources make the phone
ring.
• Can’t attribute sales opportunities and revenue from those
calls to the right sources
• Can’t optimize programs, PPC search bids, messaging, or
spend correctly
• Marketing can’t prove how they are impacting revenue
2. Marketing can’t control how inbound calls are routed,
scored and managed to optimize conversions.

DataFromOurOwnGooglePPCMarketing

out web form – our marketing
isn’t working! Our ads are
wasting $$!
> But another 5.3% of visitors
called us – Hallelujah! The
landing page actually
converts well!
> Tracked form and phone leads
from PPC through our sales funnel
> PPC phone leads converted to
revenue 3x more than form

Calls vs Form Conversions How Leads Converted to $$
8.5% combined conversion rate
(form + phone) is solid. But needed
to track calls to see it.
