Adding Website Leads into Blitz Lead Management Software

July 22nd, 2010

Does your company have a website that collects leads?  Do you get contact us, quote or any other requests from your website?  Are you just setup to get these requests sent to someone’s email?

The Blitz Lead Management Software will allow you to have website requests to be added automatically into the the system.  Having these leads from your website come right into a lead management system will allow you to:

  • Never lose sight of a lead again as it will not just be in someone’s email but rather in Blitz to be seen and tracked.
  • You will be able to measure the amount of leads that came from the website.
  • You will be able to measure the amount of business you get from your website.
  • Eliminate the time and effort it takes to add these leads into your web-based lead management system.

Blitz Lead Manager also allows a confirmation email to be sent to your customer as soon as a request comes in from the website.  Your customer will know right away that you are aware of their request and we be in contact with them soon.  When a lead is on your website, it is typically a hot lead and so being able to send them a quick response can be critical to getting the business.

Blitz Lead Management Software Release Notes 07/10/2010

July 10th, 2010

Lead Source

Lead Source has been added as an option for each lead in the Blitz lead management software. There is a new configuration screen for managing the lead sources. (Administration -> Lead Sources)

Adding/Updating Leads - The lead source can be specified when adding a lead from the lead list, importing leads, or mobile add lead screens. The source can be updated from the lead log or mobile update page.

New My Blitz Gadget- The My Blitz has a new gadget that breaks down leads by lead source. There is also the option to view the breakdown for a single campaign.

Updated Opportunities Gadgets - The Won, Lost, and Pending gadgets have had a new lead source section added so that you can view your opportunities broken down by lead source.

Miscellaneous - The lead source was also added as a column on the lead list, opportunities list, and milestone report. So each of these pages can be filtered/sorted based on the lead’s current source.

On top of the new lead source updates, the opportunities gadgets have been changed so that they reference what has occurred this month and last month.  The old “Past Month” opportunity breakdowns have been replaced by “This Month” and “Last Month” breakdowns.  This will allow you to track opportunity progress based on month from the My Blitz page.

A new pending breakdown has also been added.  The “Still Pending And The Estimated Close Date Has Passed” breakdown will show you all opportunities that have passed their estimated close date. This is useful to make sure that opportunities are being updated in a timely manner and they don’t get left in a pending status beyond the date that they were closed. (This will only work for opportunities that have a defined Estimated Close Date”)
