Proliance uses Thalox Engagement Score for enhancing lead handover strategy

Proliance's Goal

Targeted messaging

Informing customers about GDPR solutions presents unique challenges.

GDPR, with its intricate regulations, can be overwhelming for businesses seeking compliance.

Customers' knowledge of data protection varies widely, necessitating a delicate balance between technical details and non-technical explanations. The GDPR landscape is dynamic, evolving with legal changes and best practices. Companies must keep customers updated on these shifts.

 

Clean up and structure disorganized database

Lead handover with a happy worker“Are we marketing to the best possible contacts in the database?” "Are we prepared to run automated and targeted campaigns?" As many marketers, Céline too wants to make sure that the marketing efforts around email marketing are paying off.

Some of their contacts are not engaging anymore. Therefore Céline is thinking about ways how to re-engage with them and at the same time increase open and click-through rate to qualify more leads for the sales team.

The Solution

HubSpot  Audit

Proliance has been working with thalox since April 2023. Based on the insights thalox provided, Proliance proceeded to:

Data Hygiene:

  • Review and update of contact records: We identified and merge duplicate contacts, corrected inaccurate information, and ensured that all contact details are up to date.

  • Remove inactive contacts: Based on thalox's "No Activity", we archived and deleted contacts that have never received any marketing email before, improving deliverability and maintaining a healthy database.

Workflow and Automation:

  • Reviewed and optimized workflows: We evaluated automation workflows to eliminate unnecessary or outdated processes.

  • Update email sequences: We ensured that email sequences are still effective and relevant. We modify sequences that are no longer producing results.

Database Segmentation:

  • Segmented contact database: Based on the thalox's segments we organized contacts into meaningful segments to improve lead handover and targeting in marketing campaigns.

  • Cleaning lists and forms: We reduced the number of available lists and forms by 40%.

 

The Engagement Score helped to identify high-value leads who are actively engaging with their content.

 

Result

In less than 6 months, thalox's high engagers had an increase from 9% to 19%, at the same time, Proliance managed to reduce the inactive segment from 64% to 48% which means that we re-engaged with contacts significantly.

Thalox Engagement Score

The Thalox Engagement Score (TES) helped Proliance to improve campaign effectiveness. This score is designed to measure the level of engagement and interest of leads and contacts. Here's how it helped them to run better campaigns:

  1. Prioritize Leads and Contacts:

    • The Engagement Score helped to identify high-value leads who are actively engaging with their content. We were able to prioritize outreach efforts toward these engaged leads, increasing the chances of conversions.

  2. Segmentation:

    • By using the Engagement Score, Proliance was able to segment leads and contacts based on their level of engagement. This allowed them to improve lead handover and to create more targeted campaigns that are tailored to contacts' interests and needs.

  3. Lead Nurturing:

    • The Engagement Score helped to identify leads who are not highly engaged but still have potential. We were able to create lead nurturing campaigns specifically designed to re-engage these leads and move them further down the sales funnel.

  4. A/B Testing:

    • We used the Engagement Score to conduct A/B tests on campaigns. Tested different content, subject lines, or sending times to see which combinations resonate best with their highly engaged contacts and adopted this to the other segments.

  5. Improving Scoring Strategy:

    • We are now using the TES (Thalox Engagement Score) as part of Proliance's general scoring to hand over more qualified leads to their Sales Team.

 

Result

"We used the Thalox Engagement Score for enhancing our campaign strategy by providing insights into the engagement level of our leads and contacts. Leveraging this data allows you to make more informed decisions, create highly targeted campaigns, and ultimately improve your campaign results and ROI. Compared to our starting point, we achieved to send three times more SQLs to Sales"
