A lead generation conference in Las Vegas, gathered this year 1400 participants and 650 companies from different countries around the world. The common concern is how to generate high quality business sales leads and what new trends the markets are setting.

It remains clear that quantity of business sales leads is important. The issue of quality is another major concern. For this, scores were developed to be able to rate the quality.

A topic that is ranked with the most important regarding quality (60%) is the ability of leads to match supply with demand. However, business sales leads generators have not yet come up with standardize way of measuring this relation.

The relevance that the information will have to the user was rated with a 20% of importance. It is important to verify that the information about the applicants is correct. In order to verify this, business sales leads companies are expected to confirm it either by phone or the internet.

The ability of the business sales leads to predict whether a customer will have intention of purchasing is considered with 20% of importance on the quality of a lead. Generally, leads are only useful after a period of 6 to 12 months and after having been verified.

Participants have different points of view regarding the speed at which the business sales leads need to be processed. Some argue that leads should be verified within hours after the leads were created, some think days are also possible. Most participants concluded that minutes or hours is the most effective speed of lead verification.

It is important to make emphasis on the relation between the rate of conversion of business sales leads and the speed of reminders given to the user (30% efficiency of sale for a reminder on the day even with a reminder the next day): a priori there are great benefits to finding ways to accelerate the speed of calling the users back.

Also, in a broader vision, generation of business sales leads done online is seen as a counter-cyclical business. Meaning that it is an island of prosperity in a world of crisis: on the one hand, users want to buy, and the other marketers and marketers want more leads to be able to sell more.
