SmartLeads provides a customer-facing application that enables users to specify target market segments, provide messaging and receive leads delivered. Based on provided inputs, AI Robot Adelia executes automated lead generation activities such as building a contacts database, running email and LinkedIn outreach campaigns, and tracking results.
The SmartLeads application enables the customer to manage the lead generation process:
Market segments are defined by specifying company profiles and person profiles. Based on these criteria, AI Robot searches for companies and people in third party databases, on Internet and on social media (LinkedIn). It applies the same criteria to search results to filter out relevant companies and people and eliminate non-relevant records that are part of search results due to inaccuracies of search in external sources. For these relevant people, AI Robot is searching for contact information such as corporate email ID and LinkedIn ID.
Contacts allocated to a specific market segment are then assigned as recipients to specific campaigns targeting this market segment. Customer writes messages text, then combines it into sequences and attaches specific sequence to each campaign. Each campaign will have an assigned sender. Senders are the customer’s leadership team and salespeople on whose behalf these campaigns are executed.
SmartLeads application enables ability to create multiple workspaces. Each workspace will have access to relevant portion of the overall contacts database created for the customer. Workspaces segregate the overall customer contacts database into separate parts, each containing market segments non-overlapping between workspaces. Each workspace will have its own set of companies, people, and contacts. Each workspace will have its own campaigns.
Typically, a workspace will be created for each separate sales department within the organization, pursuing different (non-overlapping) market segments or marketing different products of the company.
An account created within SmartLeads application is typically linked to one company with one billing contact. Companies can create separate accounts with separate different billing details, even when the email IDs of people are from the same domain. This is not recommended, because different parts of organization will not have a consolidated contacts database. Recommended approach when one company will have one account and within that account different departments have their own workspaces.
SmartLeads applications have the following roles: Owner, Admin, Manager, and Member.
- The Owner is the user who created an account in the SmartLeads application or who was assigned later to manage subscriptions and billing. Only the Owner can buy additional licenses. The Owner can create workspaces, add users, grant certain users Admin rights, assign licenses to users. The Owner has all the rights of an Admin along with a subscription management functionality.
