Facebook Lead Ads x CRM Integration: Unlock a Seamless Journey from Prospects to Sales

Turning potential customers into actual sales and expanding audience reach are key marketing challenges for businesses today. Facebook Lead Ads are specifically designed to meet these needs by enabling customers to share their personal information easily through pre-filled forms and a simplified submission process. This gives businesses direct access to essential customer data—such as names and email addresses—reducing drop-off rates and boosting lead collection efficiency.

Facebook Lead Ads allow businesses to capture prospects who proactively engage with the company for enquiry, enabling precise targeting of potential customers. When customers come across an intriguing product or service on Facebook and click on an ad for more details, an embedded form automatically pops up, allowing them to quickly fill it out and submit it on their mobile devices. With just a few taps, customers can connect with businesses, while companies gain a new lead effortlessly.

Why choose Facebook Lead Ads?

1. The world’s most popular social platform

With nearly 2 billion monthly active users, Facebook provides high engagement and frequent content views, making it an ideal advertising platform to boost visibility. By utilising Facebook Lead Ads, businesses can simply await contact details from interested customers, reaching a large number of high-intent customers successfully.

2. Integration with CRM tools for enhanced lead tracking

Facebook Lead Ads integrate seamlessly with various CRM systems, such as HubSpot and Salesforce, which can streamline the process and significantly boost conversion rates. The integration offers several key advantages:

  • Effortless lead access: When customers fill out a Facebook Lead Ads form, businesses can access customer lists directly through the CRM system, with contact information clearly organised, streamlining data management.
  • Instant lead follow-up: With customer details collected through Facebook Lead Ads, businesses can access these data directly in the CRM system and send timely broadcast messages via communication channels, creating an efficient customer engagement journey.
  • Personalised service: CRM data allows businesses to understand customer preferences and provide personalised services.

3. Customisable formats to meet industry needs

Facebook Lead Ads offer a variety of form options, adaptable for subscriptions, event registrations, trial requests, and more. Beyond basic customer information form, simple questions can be added to gain a better understanding of customer needs. For example, a gym could ask about workout frequency and goals, allowing for tailored services and attracting more potential members.

Customised forms also enable businesses in different industries to personalise their marketing content. For instance, an automotive business could add options for test drive booking times and locations, making it convenient for customers to choose when and where they’d like to test drive.

Omnichat accelerates conversions: Unleash the potential of WhatsApp to follow up on Facebook leads

While Facebook Lead Ads are effective at gathering potential customer information, efficiently following up with this large pool of leads can be challenging. Although Facebook Messenger allows for business-to-customer communication, the 24-hour messaging window often restricts instant responses and sustained customer relationships. With Omnichat, businesses can directly reach leads from Facebook Lead Ads via WhatsApp, using its robust chat commerce tools to create a seamless customer journey and elevate conversion rates.

Why WhatsApp?

With an open rate of up to 98%, WhatsApp is a preferred platform for customers to engage with businesses. By leveraging WhatsApp, businesses can expand customer reach and drive higher conversions.

  • Increased Revenue Potential: WhatsApp allows potential customers to easily learn more about products or services and receive timely answers to their queries, smoothly converting leads into actual sales, speeding up the sales cycle, and boosting overall performance.
  • Cost-Effective, High-Impact Solution: WhatsApp’s interactive messaging can significantly reduce traditional marketing and customer service expenses while achieving efficient lead conversion.

Harnessing WhatsApp’s advanced features to capture every sales opportunity

1. WhatsApp Broadcast x Automated chatbot

Leverage automated chatbots to provide instant responses to customer enquiries and enhance engagement. Use WhatsApp broadcasts to connect with customers from your Facebook Lead Ads, send automated welcome messages via chatbot and guide them to select the service they need from a predetermined option for more personalised service.

2. Automatic assignment for improved service efficiency

Based on the customer’s needs specified in the form, such as product enquiries or service bookings, the system can automatically route conversations to the most suitable salesperson, ensuring each potential customer receives a prompt response and boosting customer satisfaction.

Benefit, for example, utilised Omnichat’s auto-assignment feature to direct customers interested in eyebrow grooming or beauty products to dedicated sales representatives, offering personalised beauty advice and tailored product recommendations, increasing booking rates by 30%!

3. Targeted customer segmentation and retargeting

Leverage WhatsApp to tag customer preferences and needs gathered from Facebook Lead Ads forms for effective segmented management. With Omnichat’s Broadcast via WhatsApp, businesses can send personalised product updates and exclusive offers based on each customer’s purchasing intent, gradually guiding them from Facebook enquiries to completed purchases.

For example, an online bookstore could categorise customers based on their purchase history and browsing patterns, sending new book release notifications and exclusive discounts to sci-fi fans, successfully encouraging repeat purchases.

4. Seamless payment process

Customers expect a smooth shopping experience, and frequent platform switching or unfamiliar interfaces may deter them from completing payments.

By identifying product interests from Facebook Lead Ads, sales teams can use WhatsApp to send relevant product links to encourage purchases. Crucially, WhatsApp supports in-chat payments, allowing customers to quickly complete transactions without leaving the platform, significantly reducing lost sales.
