Leads can be created and updated directly from Qualified by either your reps or automatically from an experience. New Leads will automatically be assigned to the rep they interacted with or who they booked a meeting with. Otherwise, the Lead will be assigned to the Salesforce user used for the Org-level connection. If needed, you can utilize the owner ID field to assign an alternate Lead owner.
Understand Leads with Qualified
Qualified acts as a first contact point for your prospects while visiting your website. For some visitors, we’ll know who the visitor is based on marketing cookies, previous visits, and information they enter into the Qualified chatbot.
Once we have an idea of who the visitor is, we’ll check your Salesforce instance for any existing records. If an existing Contact or Lead matches that information, we’ll surface it in Qualified so your team has a holistic understanding of that visitor.
In other cases, visitors will not have existing records in your Salesforce instance. While they interact with Qualified, our platform and/or your team members will collect their information and add it to the visitor's profile in Qualified.
That information can then be passed into Salesforce where a new Lead will be created. There are two ways a Lead can be created by Qualified:
- Synced directly by a rep.
- Synced automatically by a workflow or experience.
Qualified uses the individual Salesforce connection to assign Leads to the correct sales rep after an interaction. You’ll want to ensure all Qualified users set up their individual Salesforce connections when they build their user profiles in Qualified.
If a user does not have a Salesforce connection, we’ll automatically assign the new Lead to the Org-level connection user.
How Qualified assigns Leads
When creating Leads in Salesforce from Qualified, the Lead assignment is based on how that visitor interacted with Qualified and your team. Leads created via Qualified do not utilize your Salesforce Lead Assignment Rules.
- Visitor chats with a rep - The new Lead will be assigned to that rep.
- Visitor books a meeting with a rep - The new Lead will be assigned to that rep.
- Visitor engages with an experience but does not book a meeting or have a conversation - The new Lead will be assigned to the Org-level connection user.
- Visitor chats with a rep or books a meeting, but that rep has not set an individual Salesforce connection - The new Lead will be assigned to the Org-level connection user.
- Visitor comes in as an existing Lead - Qualified will respect the existing Lead ownership and will not change it.
