A lead score serves as a valuable tool in the education industry, providing a numerical value that reflects a potential student’s readiness to pursue a course or program. Also known as a “lead,” this score is determined by considering various factors, including demographics, behavior, and engagement with an educational organization’s marketing materials. At Meritto (formerly NoPaperForms), we understand the importance of lead scoring in effectively prioritizing and nurturing leads. In this blog, we will delve into the significance of lead scoring and explore how it can help educational organizations identify and focus on high-potential leads, leading to improved conversions and enrollment rates. Stay with us to discover the power of lead scoring and how Meritto can assist you in maximizing your marketing efforts.
The higher the score, the more likely the lead is to convert. Lead scoring is a key feature of Lead Nurturing in an Education CRM for Admission Marketing Teams. It enables them to prioritize and focus their efforts on the most promising leads, and to determine when a lead is ready to be passed along to the sales team for further follow-up.
Lead Scoring typically works by assigning a numerical value to leads based on a set of predefined criteria and here’s how it is done exactly:
While this is how lead scoring works in most CRMs, Meritto’s purpose-built Education CRM for educational organizations goes a step further and allows you to keep a track of the Lead Strength, an industry-first feature, that shares the relative intent of the prospect compared to the pool of enquiries so you know whom to reach out first.
Now that you know what a lead score is and how it is configured, here’s how it can benefit educational organisations:
So overall, a lead score can help educational organizations prioritize and identify which of their prospective students are most likely to convert and enroll. However, lead scoring or nurturing alone wouldn’t help make an impact if it’s not used in sync with a Campaign Management and Marketing Automation tool that Meritto’s Education CRM provides altogether.
