A customer lead management system that relates to a system and method for
collecting and organizing customer-marketing data, which is then made
available to business representatives to assess. Specifically, using a
computer network, and data on a potential customer's Budget, Authority,
Needs, Timeframe, and other related customer data is collected. While
this data is being collected, the customer lead management system stores
the customer lead data in real-time instantly, automatically ranking the
viability of the customer lead on the interest level of the customer lead
and other variable criteria used in the web-based algorithm calculation,
and automatically electronically notifies the appropriate company and/or
company representative about the customer lead. The resulting customer
lead profile record is located in a web server database, and can be
accessed and undated in real-time by a portable computer or electronic
device that has been web-enabled. The customer lead data is then capable
of being accessed via a computer network by various companies that have
goods/services that satisfy the needs and requirements of the customer
lead. A company representative can be automatically notified when a
customer lead profile has been updated.
