How to access a lead profile (Lead Details)

• Lead scoring: score assigned to a lead. The score allows to prioritize a lead based on its probability of conversion. Assigning a score to your leads according to their digital interactions (forms completed, link clicked on email or landing page, visit to a section of the web site) or according to their attributes (demographic profile) will help to pre-qualify them in order to establish a chain of communication. Depending on the score of your lead, you could automate a mailing to follow-up with him or assign this lead to a sales representative who will contact him. For more details on our scorecard tool, consult Analysis / Scores Leads from the main menu.
  
  
• Assigned sales representative: the sales representative who the lead is assigned to. You can set up your sales team from the main menu, under Settings / Configuration / Sales Team.
