On the 6th of February, 2014 we hosted a Marketing Automation Meetup in Sydney, Australia. The attached is the deck used for this session.
We specifically focused on a Lead Nurturing Campaign for those Contacts who fall out of the bottom of your funnel before the Closed/Won stage. The key being to ensure the investment made by marketing to get them this far through the funnel is not lost simply because they chose not to buy today.

16. What is âLeadâ Nurturing?
C o l l e g e
âą
A generic term implying a constant level of automated engagement with
contacts which may have fallen out of the sales funnel.
âą
âNurturingâ can also be used as a business process to engage âš
with customers, partners and employees. For example:
âą
OnBoarding Campaigns can be built in conjunction with HR, IT and
Physical Facilities for new staff.
âą Customers can be nurtured through a range of products and services.

21. A common mistake marketers make is
to think of lead nurturing as email
communication.
Instead, think of it as a workïŹow or
series of communications in which
every step has a clear and concise
objective, whether moving someone to
the next stage, or driving another
desirable action.
