She and Danny chat about how important it is to track, understand, organize, and share lead quality rather than just quantity when optimizing paid campaigns.

Episode Highlights

• Lead quality is a key element often overlooked by agencies. Customer Relationship Management is a platform or program that stores and organizes data relating to leads to better inform the marketing team to optimize the campaigns and conversion process. UTMs are specific parameters appended to a URL when a user visits your website that denotes the source, medium, campaigns, and more that brought them to your website.
• It’s essential to track the quality of a lead to ensure you’re not optimizing on flawed data. This means connecting UTMs to one’s CRM so you can track the sources and more, bringing in truly viable and high-quality leads. One must also ensure they track all types of conversions, including phone calls.
• CRMs can be incredibly helpful for marketing a business, but utilizing them must be a priority. Optidge recommends assigning one or two team members the goal and focus of updating, grading, and disseminating the information in the CRM. This is imperative to ensure up-to-date, useful data is used to optimize PPC campaigns and marketing efforts.
