True Influence Launches Innovative Pricing Model: Changing The Face of B2B Lead Generation

Posted by: True Influence  /  Tags: , , , , , ,

Vienna, VA (Press Release – December 14, 2011) – True Influence, innovators of the “One Click Lead,” today announced the launch of the LeadPAC Free Plan, along with affordable tiered pricing plans available on a monthly or “pay as you go” basis with no set-up fees or long-term contract. True Influence is also now offering a variety of support plans and packages for LeadPAC customers.

LeadPAC is a behaviorally targeted, self-service email prospecting platform that allows online advertisers and marketers the ability to target the right message to the right person at the right time – at no risk. With the LeadPAC Free Plan, sales and marketing professionals can:

  • Run one (1) email prospecting campaign and generate up to 10 leads per month for free.
  • Generate additional, verified leads at $40 per lead thereafter.

LeadPAC service subscribers can change plans easily – either online or by calling True Influence. Each pricing plan has thresholds based on the number of leads, campaigns, and level of support desired. Once subscribers exceed their limit within a plan, they will be notified and can choose to upgrade their plan at the next billing cycle.

Factoring in the cost of data, emailing and form conversion into current Cost Per Lead (CPL) calculations, LeadPAC provides great value, and customers can view results of a recently conducted CPL Survey to learn more about its capabilities.

True Influence launched LeadPAC commercially in September 2011 and the platform has gained significant momentum ever since with impressive client adoption rates. LeadPAC is based on a cost-per-click (CPC), pay-for-performance delivery model. There are no recurring monthly charges, no set up fees, and no long-term commitments. Customers only pay for leads that match their pre-determined criteria. With LeadPAC, marketers get the prospect’s full contact information with one-click on the ad and can immediately add the prospect into their sales pipeline for follow-up.

“Our new LeadPAC pricing plans give marketers an affordable and powerful prospecting tool at no charge to start to proactively contact their target markets,” said Brian Giese, Founder and CEO of True Influence. “Instead of spending exorbitant, up front amounts of money buying or renting lists for email marketing, with LeadPAC’s free-to-start and tiered pricing plans, our customers can choose the option that fits their marketing budgets, and only pay for the results that they want.”

Webinar: Six C’s to Aligning Sales and Marketing to Accelerate Revenue

Posted by: True Influence  /  Tags: , , , , , , ,

Date: January 12, 2012 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM EST

Overview:

Sales and Marketing are responsible for managing a predictable, reliable demand generation pipeline that produces higher value opportunities and maximizes revenue. The traditional approach to the pipeline- Awareness, Interest, Demand, Action or the more modified version of this pipeline – Awareness, Interest, Consideration, Purchase – is outdated.

The customer is no longer a passive recipient or a sidelined spectator. In today’s environment, customers are actively engaged in the buying process. Today we leverage a mix of vehicles from search engines to customer generated blogs and reviews, from online communities to social networks, and from broadcast to personalization designed to create engagement and enhance experience. Yet our language related to the customer buying pipeline hasn’t kept up.

Agenda:

Join us for this web-based discussion,We’ll discuss and learn:

  • A customer-centric alternative for creating an opportunity pipeline
  • Six key measurable stages for developing, implementing and measuring Marketing’s contribution to the opportunity pipeline
  • How to use this customer-centric approach to align marketing and sales and enable the two organization to collaboratively accelerate revenue

Business Brief: The One Click Lead:Form-Free Conversions

Posted by: True Influence  /  Tags: , , , , , , , , , , ,

For Marketers looking to quickly increase the number of prospects at the top of their funnel by adding names from outside of their own prospect database, the primary choices available are Paid Search (such as Google AdWords) and email List Rental.

The key limitation to both of these is typically cost, and in both cases the Marketer is charged prior to prospect conversion. In the case of Paid Search, one pays per click (and hopes that a high percentage of those clickthroughs actually fill out the form and convert) and in the case of List Rental, one pays for the attempt (for the sending of the email, regardless of the number of click-throughs or conversions).

The marketers at True Influence offer a better way. True Influence campaigns feature a unique One-Click Lead methodology that eliminates forms entirely!
