Creating a lead scoring model involves determining how much value to assign to that lead based on several factors. With an account-based strategy, accounts become the priority vs. leads.
Engagement Points is Demandbase’s answer to lead scoring. Engagement Points track how People and Accounts engage with your content and company via marketing channels, sales communications, web visits, and more. The higher the Engagement Points, the higher the interest that account or person has with your company.
Understanding Engagement Points
Engagement Points is a scoring system used to quantify how engaged an account is with your company.
Benefits of Account-Level Engagement
Tracking engagement at the account level allows for more insightful analysis. For example, showing a 122% increase in account engagement to the Head of Sales shows progress in the sales funnel. Additionally, identifying Marketing Qualified Accounts (MQAs) and monitoring engagement trends helps in sales prioritization.
The following example shows accounts in an account list ranked by Engagement Points for the past 3 months:
Using Engagement Points
You can use Engagement Points to track the level of interaction your target accounts have with your company. This includes responses to marketing programs, website visits, product usage, and conversations with the sales team.
