Warm Lead
A prospect who has shown some interest or engagement with your company, making them more receptive to outreach than cold contacts.
Definition
A warm lead has some familiarity with your brand—they've visited your website, downloaded content, attended an event, or been referred. Unlike cold leads (no prior contact), warm leads have context that makes outreach more relevant. Warmth is a spectrum from slightly warm (visited website) to hot (requested demo).
Why It Matters
Warm leads convert at significantly higher rates than cold leads. Someone who just visited your pricing page is far more likely to respond than a random name from a database. Prioritizing warm leads improves sales efficiency and reduces wasted effort.
Examples
- Visitor who viewed multiple product pages
- Attendee from a recent webinar
- Referral from existing customer
- Prospect who engaged with LinkedIn content
How Bullseye Helps
Bullseye generates warm leads by identifying website visitors. Every identified contact has already shown interest by visiting your site—they know your brand, they've seen your content. That's the definition of a warm lead.
