In my last post , I reviewed 4 ways to segment your leads using your marketing software (like HubSpot) integrated with your customer relationship management (CRM) system . Now let's jump into how to measure those different segments to identify the best ones! What does "the best" mean?
4 Metrics to Measure Your Best Leads
1. Conversion Rate to Opportunity

2. Conversion Rate to Customer
Conversion to sales opportunity isn't the end of the game - you want to see how those leads convert into customers. You might find, also, that an offer that has the best lead to opportunity conversion rate may not have the best opportunity to customer conversion rate.

3. Average Rating

4. Rejection Rate

Bonus Tip: Work each of these metrics into a sales and marketing service level agreement (SLA) to set expectations with your sales team and measure your progress over time. Identifying your best leads according to these metrics and setting an SLA will help you figure out where to invest your marketing resources and improve your smarketing productivity.
