LEAD GENERATION AND LEAD CONVERSION AN IMPORTANT PART OF SALES PROCESS

 

1.   In the present Covid time, various companies are struggling to make sales while various other companies are struggling to make purchases. In this environment, one has to understand why people are missing on sales. The sales process can be defined in   two broad heads i.e. lead creation and lead conversion.

-      Digital marketing like linkdin, facebook, tweeter etc.
