Lead scoring is a key feature that helps you prioritize leads, qualify the right leads for sales, and capture long-term sales opportunities that would otherwise have been lost. If you've integrated the Advanced Social Media Module with your account, you can even score your leads based on their social media engagement.
Scoring Criteria
Lead scoring through Advanced Social Media (Oktopost) is based on special profile fields on the marketing list that it syncs to:
| Profile Field | Explanation |
|---|---|
| OktoClickTime | The date when the contact engaged with your social media content |
| OktoClickNetwork | The network the lead came from: LinkedIn, Facebook, X (Twitter) |
| OktoClickProfile | Name of the personal/company page from which the post was published |
| OktoClickCampaign | Name of the social campaign within the ASM module |
| OktoClickPostLink | The title of the link that the contact clicked on |
You can create rules based on these attributes to customize your lead scoring for any of them. For example, you can make social clicks during the current month worth more points than last month's clicks, or make clicks from LinkedIn worth more than those from Facebook.
