Tip #2 General Keyword vs. Buyer Intent Keywords
• While it might sound like a no brainer, there is a major difference in someone finding you on the search term “software” if you are a financial software company vs. someone who finds you on “SMB Financial Software”.
• The latter speaks to the user intent and the likelihood of someone being much more qualified vs. someone who finds you on the search term “software”.
• Your goal to maximize MQLs should be to uncover, map, and optimize better buyer intent keywords. Our process of expanding keywords with better buyer intent is critical to generating predictable MQLs.

Tip #3: Reduce the number of fields
• Less is more! Conversion rates matter.
• Find a happy medium between asking the right amount of questions without asking too many! We get you need a minimum number of fields to input into CRM to ensure it’s a viable lead, but ask too many because you don’t know better is a recipe of losing otherwise good leads.
