Drip Marketing engages a prospect whereas Lead Nurturing involves understanding the prospect, their associated needs, & develops a better, more qualified sales opportunity.
Lead nurturing is an important part of lead generation and marketing efforts. It involves crafting meaningful messages for prospects through different stages of their buying journey using tactics like personalization, content customization, and drip marketing. Drip campaigns, which involve launching a series of marketing messages based on a lead's behaviors, are an effective lead nurturing strategy. Research shows companies that excel at lead nurturing see increased sales opportunities and lower costs compared to those without nurturing strategies.
This document provides an overview of lead nurturing strategies for B2B marketers. It defines lead nurturing as building relationships with qualified prospects regardless of their readiness to purchase, with the goal of earning their business when they are ready. Most new leads are not yet sales-ready, so lead nurturing aims to maintain contact and provide relevant information to prospects throughout their buying journey. Done effectively, lead nurturing can increase sales opportunities and conversions compared to not nurturing leads. The guide offers basic and advanced nurturing tactics and worksheets to help marketers implement successful nurturing programs.

In this slideshare, discover 10 of the most common lead scoring mistakes that B2B companies make. You'll learn:
-Why it's critical to separate demographic and behavioral scoring

Lead scoring assigns a numeric value to prospects based on their website activity, but cannot differentiate between interested prospects and those just doing research. Lead grading assigns prospects a letter grade based on how well their demographics match the ideal customer profile. This better identifies truly interested prospects worth pursuing. An effective lead qualification strategy considers both the lead score and grade to determine which leads should be immediately passed to sales, placed on a nurture plan, or deleted from the database.
This document provides guidance on lead qualification and nurturing for B2B marketers. It discusses how lead qualification can increase sales by ensuring the right leads are passed to sales. Nurturing unqualified leads with educational content can reduce spending by preventing leaks in the sales funnel. The document recommends qualifying leads based on both implicit factors like website behavior and explicit factors like job role. It also provides tips for nurturing leads through automated communications, personal notes, and reconnecting with past leads. Research shows companies that excel at lead qualification and nurturing close more deals with fewer resources.
This document discusses lead scoring and how it can improve marketing and sales results. Some key points:
- Lead scoring uses analytics to assign a score to sales prospects based on their interests, profile, and buying intentions to prioritize leads. Companies that implement lead scoring see up to a 77% lift in lead generation ROI.
- When building a lead scoring program, marketing and sales should agree on what qualifies as a good lead and collaborate on selecting relevant data dimensions to score, like website interactions, content downloads, and demographic information.
- Dimensions are assigned weight and impact levels. The program is modeled and tested before implementation to refine how it classifies leads as hot, warm or cold.

Hum, Sing, Shout: How to Design a Scalable, Sustainable and Always On Content...Joe Glover
The pressure is real for brands to constantly be churning out fresh content and be “always on.” Research shows time and again that the brands that do always-on marketing well are often considered more recognizable and relevant. But it's not easy to implement.
In addition to always running campaigns, marketers need to ensure the content they promote is relevant throughout their prospect's buying journey. How does one be always on without having to always be working?
In this session, LinkedIn’s Senior Content Solutions Consultant Purna Virji will share how marketers can re-think their content planning approach and share frameworks and best-in-class examples for designing a scalable and sustainable always on content strategy.
This document discusses best practices for using the marketing automation platform Eloqua to benefit a business. It identifies opportunities in sales, marketing, and general efficiency.

Lead Scoring & Nurturing in Higher Educationpatmcgraw
Lead scoring and nurturing can help colleges and universities attract and retain more successful students. Lead scoring involves analyzing the traits of past successful students to identify others with similar profiles. Key traits may include demographics, psychographics, budget, authority to enroll, need for education, and timeframe. Organizations then focus enrollment efforts on leads most likely to enroll today through relevant outreach, while nurturing those likely to enroll later with less expensive channels. Done correctly with the right message through the right channels at the right time, lead scoring and nurturing can increase conversion rates by 1.5 to 3.0 times by ensuring all qualified prospects are contacted.
Beachhead Marketing discusses four factors to consider when designing a lead scoring model in this fourth installment of Lead Scoring for Smart People.
This document discusses how the evolution of digital technologies and online research has transformed the B2B buying process. Prospects now conduct most of their research and evaluation online through activities like website visits and whitepaper downloads. This "digital body language" provides important insights into prospects' interests and stage in the buying cycle. However, most sales teams have not adapted to leverage this new information. Top companies are now tracking digital body language to better align marketing and sales, identify engaged prospects, and improve lead conversion rates.

How to Qualify, Score and Nurture Leads for Optimal ROIReadyTalk
B2B buyers have a growing tendency and capacity to research their purchase decisions online long before they engage with Sales. As marketers, we now need to assess which leads are ready to engage, and which are still in the independent research phase. By sending leads to Sales too early, we jeopardize the deal by scaring them off, therefore putting our marketing dollars and company revenues at great risk.
So, how do you know when your leads are ready to engage, and how do you nurture those that aren't there yet?
Both of these questions and more will be answered during this 60-minute webinar, which will cover lead qualification, scoring and nurturing strategies for optimal lead generation ROI. We will also highlight MarketingSherpa's FUEL methodology for B2B marketing effectiveness from lead generation to sales conversion.
Lead nurturing has become an integral part of a successful marketing strategy—specifically when building relationships with potential buyers across multiple channels, even if they are not currently looking to purchase a product or service. Today’s potential buyers don’t become customers overnight—they require marketing over time as they self-educate and build trust with a company. Lead nurturing helps marketers communicate consistently with buyers cross-channel and throughout the sales cycle—addressing the gap in time between when a lead first interacts with you and when she is ready to purchase.
The Definitive Guide to Lead Nurturing covers everything you need to know to get started using lead nurturing to drive revenue growth, including how to:
Create a lead nurture strategy
Nurture leads across channels
Segment a lead database
Choose appropriate content for each lead nurture track and audience
Get the most value from lead nurturing with testing and optimization
Measure and explain lead nurturing’s return on investment
Sometimes the biggest obstacle to developing an online marketing strategy is simply not knowing how to get started. But if you understand your buyers and know how you can help solve their problems, a strategy will naturally begin to take shape. Use this simple, interactive template to begin planning your next marketing or PR strategy.

By building relationships with potential customers through valuable content and personalized interactions, businesses can increase conversion rates, improve customer retention, and better understand their target audience. In this article, you will learn everything about Lead Nurturing—keep reading.
This process of building relationships with potential customers provides them with valuable information and guidance to turn them into paying customers. Today, consumers have access to a wealth of information at their fingertips, making it important for businesses to generate leads and nurture them until they are ready to make a purchase. Here’s a simple list of ways you can cultivate strong customer relationships and turn them into long-term customers.
1. Understand Your Target Audience
Before you begin any lead nurturing activities, you must have a vivid understanding of your target audience. What are their pain points? What are their interests? What motivates them to make a purchase? By answering these questions, you can create content that will directly speak to their needs and interests. You can also tailor your lead nurturing activities to their specific needs, increasing conversion chances.
2. Create Valuable Content
Creating valuable content is one of the most effective ways to nurture leads. Content marketing involves creating and sharing relevant, informative, and engaging content for your target audience. This can include blog posts, whitepapers, videos, webinars, and more. By providing your leads with valuable content, you can position yourself as an industry expert, build trust with your prospects, and keep them engaged throughout the buyer's journey.
By most accounts, marketing automation is the greatest thing since… well, since email marketing. The ability to qualify leads and build demand in a fully automated workflow frees us marketers from the high-pressure requirements of constant writing, email development, and deployment tasks.
It also enables us to more appropriately personalize content and send messages that are both timely and relevant. In this guide, we define the differences between email blasts, drip emails, and nurture emails and how you can use your automated-marketing solution to subjugate these tasks.
This document provides an overview of developing a full-funnel marketing strategy for B2B companies. It discusses that prospects now research solutions online for a considerable time before contacting vendors. It then outlines the three levels of the marketing funnel: top-funnel focuses on brand awareness; mid-funnel focuses on content engagement and education; and bottom-funnel focuses on lead generation and sales conversions. The document emphasizes using a diverse set of marketing programs that target prospects throughout the entire funnel, not just one part, in order to guide them from awareness to purchase.

Remember the days when you could fill your enrollment quotas by inviting a group of parents and high school seniors to your campus and then sending out flyers afterwards?
In contrast to a traditional marketing approach in which advertising messages are addressed to a strictly defined target audience, Engagement Marketing does something new and fundamentally different.
Traditional lead generation has undergone substantial changes in recent years, thanks to new online and social marketing techniques. In particular, the abundance of information readily available online has led to the rise of the “self-directed buyer” and the emergence of new ways to develop and qualify potential leads before passing them to sales.
In the age of the self-directed buyer, marketers need to find new ways to reach their potential customers and get heard through the noise. Instead of finding customers through mass advertising and email blasts, marketers must now focus on being found, and learn to build enduring relationships with buyers. This massive shift has sparked a huge transformation in marketing.
