How PDFSalesLeads Works – Making Lead Generation Simple

The Obstacles Web Forms & Open Content Create

Generating sales leads is a critical component to the success of any sales-driven organization. The ability to capture quality leads that have shown interest in your product by interacting with you PDF content is a surefire way to increase your conversion rate.

Currently, there are two methods to generating sales leads from PDF content:

  • Gating PDF content behind web forms
  • Providing PDF content openly

Web forms and open content are the current practices that marketers and sales people employ when generating leads from online marketing collateral. They both pose problems for both the PDF content publisher and final PDF reader.

Web forms act as a barrier asking potential readers to provide personal information prior to receiving the content – they are time consuming, intrusive and are a major deterrant for your readers.

The bottom line with web forms:

  • Readers will abandon content 95% of the time when encountering a web form
  • Of the remaining 5%, most reader data will be inaccurate and incorrect
  • 0% of pass-along readers will be captured (readers who have had the PDF passed along to them from another source)

Open content leaves PDF collateral completely open for consumption and allows your audience to explore your content without providing their identity. This is a reader-friendly technique, however it captures zero sales leads and provides no insight into your ROI.

The bottom line with open content:

  • 0% of leads will be captured
  • 0% of pass-along readers will be captured (readers who have had the PDF passed along to them from another source)
