How We Did It
Fuld & Company developed a comprehensive lead generation strategy for the client, focusing on thought leadership and AI benchmarking:
- B2B AI Benchmarking Seed Survey:
We created and deployed a B2B AI Benchmarking seed survey, collecting valuable insights on industry-specific AI adoption trends. This data helped shape the personalized content and drive meaningful engagement.
- Dynamic and Static Thought Leadership Report:
A 5-page thought leadership report was developed, featuring both dynamic and static content that personalized the report based on key factors such as company size, industry, region, and business function

- Lead-Generation Survey Design:
A 12-question lead-generation survey was designed to identify high-value prospects. Responses were scored based on survey fill time, lead interest (such as opting to speak with an SME), and data validation metrics like LinkedIn and email accuracy.
- Lead Scoring and Validation:
We implemented a 10-point lead quality score to assess the potential of each lead, ensuring the client focused efforts on high-potential prospects. This included validating email addresses and LinkedIn profiles to enhance lead quality.
- Automated Report Delivery:
Personalized reports were automatically delivered to visitors, along with lead details sent to the sales team for immediate follow-up, ensuring swift engagement with high-quality leads.
