THE PROOF
Unlock the hidden dimension of your lead & align your resources for the best experiences.
A = Goes to Sales
B = BDR
C = Off to Marketing
D = Off to Marketing

THE RESULTS
5X Opportunity Lift from Better Understanding of Buyers
©2015 EverString
Key Findings
A purely behavioral model (Lead Scores) predicts only 2% of the variance in amount purchased by buyers (mildly predicts buyer commitment, but not spending)
Adding demographic & psychological data bump lead scoring up to 85%.
This is HUGE.
