Lead scoring and routing is a valuable process to save time and improve sales prospecting. By leveraging it, you can qualify leads based on data, focus on the best ones, and align your marketing and sales teams. Plus, it also helps you understand how customers react to your marketing.

Performing lead scoring and routing manually is like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

Let Bardeen help you with automations like this:

Fortunately, this process is made more accessible with ClearBit. In this article, you’ll learn how to use ClearBit for lead scoring and routing and how to automate your overall lead management process.

What is lead scoring and routing?

Based on your business, your leads might come to you from many sources, like your website and store. But with thousands of potential leads, how do you sort through them all and find the ones most likely to convert into customers?

With lead scoring, you can assign a numerical value (or a “score”) to every lead based on their interactions with your website (like signing up for a newsletter) and other attributes, like age and location.

Once the lead scoring system has qualified a lead, the lead routing system matches the lead with a sales representative best equipped to help them move further in the sales pipeline.

All in all, lead scoring and routing is about creating a customer profile and enabling your sales and marketing teams to narrow their focus on the best leads. To learn more about the art and science behind lead scoring and routing, read Modern Guide to Lead Qualification by ClearBit.

Now, let’s look at how you can implement lead scoring and routing in your business.
