Examples of Lead Nurturing Workflows

On a past thread, we discussed some of the ways that workflows can trigger your team internally. You can use them to automate data clean up or to trigger notifications to your sales team.

 

Now, let’s discuss ways you can use workflows to engage your leads and customers.

 

For example, one of my all-time favorite ways to use workflows is to re-engage leads that have abandoned their shopping cart.

 

The concept here is simple: When someone adds an item to their online shopping cart but leaves your site without completing the purchase, you can trigger an email workflow that reminds them of their forgotten purchase and motivates them to Live the transaction by offering a special discount code or some other incentive to buy.

 

That’s my favorite use workflows! How are you currently using yours? Sound off in the comments below.

One example of a lead nurturing workflow is to send a follow-up email to someone who attended one of your events.

I love when websites give me a discount code after I put my email in their system

web page help pop-ups/icons are an excellent way to help with lead nurturing workflows to teach your customers FAQs about your website and etc.

Educational series. An instructional series adds value to the lead by providing pertinent knowledge or resources based on their need or interests. The series may consist of blog articles, e-books, webinars, or other materials that inform the lead on a specific subject and establish your business as an authority in your field.

I work in B2B software marketing and one very common workflow is for demo form fills. I usuallly add a step to check in a week after the initial demo conversion with an email to make sure the prospect has had one or has one scheduled, and if they have had the demo, whether they have any other questions. This can help re-engage prospects who may be very busy and haven't had a chance to move forward with the demo.

One thing I am currently using would be sending a SMS, when they subscribe to our website with their phone number. We would message them with updates and or reminders.

Lead nurturing workflows are a series of automated emails sent to prospects to move them through the sales funnel. Examples of workflows include welcome series, educational series, re-engagement series, abandoned cart series, upsell/cross-sell series, and win-back series. Each workflow is tailored to the specific needs and interests of the target audience to improve conversion rates and build long-term relationships.
