The AnswerThe answer lies in identifying WHO are the non-enquirers on your siteSqueeze more out from what you’ve already paid for

Case Study 1 THE CLIENTUK’s No.1 lead generation specialist in office equipment supplies, connecting buyers with qualified and trusted suppliers in the B2B space generating sales leads for companies across industry.

Case Study 1 THE CHALLENGEn As a B2B lead generation specialist, PPC is one of the single biggest marketing

channels used to generate leads

n The office products market has become increasingly competitive and as a result saw increased cost per click

n Maximising conversion to lead is paramount

n Standard analytics provide reams of information on visitor behaviour enabling PPC campaign refinement

n The current analytics provided everything, but the WHO

Case Study 1 THE SOLUTIONn The client invested in next generation analytics software

n Provided insight of which individual businesses were visiting the website

n The information provided contact information, page views and search terms of non-enquirers

n The client was able to make telephone contact with businesses who had visited the site but not enquired

n The follow-up approach leveraged the insight as to what products the individual business was viewing. This enabled additional opportunity to generate qualified leads from the PPC activity that would normally be missed

Case Study 1 THE RESULTSn 150% ROI from monthly PPC budget within 5 days

n 39% uplift in clients’ revenue in Month 1, directly attributed to the analytics software

n 960% return on the analytics software investment

Case Study 2 THE CLIENTAn international commercial facilities company employing over 60,000 staff worldwide. Services delivered include catering, cleaning, security, pest control and washroom services.

Case Study 2 THE CHALLENGEn An existing Lead Forensics client in the UK using the software to indentify existing

customer and prospect visitors to their website from PPC and other marketing activity

n The client wanted to increase lead generation penetration in the AsiaPac market from their International website where only the PPC channel was being used

n There was a requirement for insight on WHO was visiting the International site and provide additional new business leads for the AsiaPac team to convert

Case Study 2 THE SOLUTIONn Advanced analytics software was added to the International site, specifically tasked

to identify WHO was visiting the AsiaPac area of the site

n The software provided business names and contact information, page views and search terms of all visitors

n This information was directly fed into the client’s global CRM system, matched against a third-party database and allocated to a business development executive for telemarketing follow-up

n Based on the insight provided, the business development teams were able to identify the services the prospect had viewed but not enquired

Case Study 2 THE RESULTSn Following a PPC visit (and non-enquiry) from a leading Bangkok hotel, the analytics

tool triggered a notification to the AsiaPac team who immediately followed up after identifying the decision maker

n The client subsequently won a £600k contract (THB 30m)

n ROI on investment in PPC has increased by over 35% and is increasing month on month

n ROI on the Lead Forensics analytics tool was over 1:100
