Categorisation of the outbound calls. Calls can be segmented into: answered, unanswered and no – interest calls. This metric is a solid indicator of the quality of your lead process.
-
The average number of tele follow – ups. It shows the number of calls made to a lead before they convert to a student / client or don’t. It allows the management to come up with a “follow up calls” policy thus setting a bar on the number of calls before each case is closed permanently. Thus, wastage of time of the company is reduced.
-
Pipeline coverage. It is defined as the consolidation of all sales opportunities compared with your revenue target. Strong pipeline coverage indicates that the concerned team members ought to concentrate on sealing more admissions etc. Weak pipeline coverage indicates more work needs to be done on creating sales opportunities.
-
Churn rate. This is measured by clients at the beginning of the month minus the clients remaining at the end of the month divided by the clients at the beginning of the month. This KPI helps to decide whether the management ought to focus on gaining a wider base or upselling / cross – selling products & offerings. Churn rate can be improved with following KPIs: calls made per customer who has cancelled or renewed, number of follow up calls for customers who have renewed or quit, sales by lead source, revenue per marketing team member, product based revenue.
