Any successful business needs to generate leads. These are your potential customers, sometimes just exploring, other times, ready to buy. To capture this interest, you need a lead generation plan for your business.

- Develop lead generation plans for your business
- Identify the best channels to generate leads for your business

Tell ChatGPT about your business
You’ll first want to share some details about your business. This will help ChatGPT understand who your audience is and what value your business provides to them.
Sample prompt:
You’re going to help me develop lead generation plans for my business. But first, I’m going to share details about my business and our audience. You should remember these details so that you can refer back to them in the future.
Name: [brand name]
Mission: [company mission]
Market Position: [brand positioning]
Audience: [who you sell to and why they love your product or service]
Let me know once you are ready to begin.

Identify the best channels to explore
To go a step further, ask ChatGPT to suggest channels. This prompt often generates a list of interesting strategies for you to try.
By including a mention about the audience, you’ll remind ChatGPT to customize its response to your query with your unique target audience in mind.
Sample prompt:
Great. What channels should I prioritize given my audience?

Channel-specific lead gen plans
To make your lead generation plan more actionable, you’re going to develop channel-specific plans. The goal is to give you and your team a detailed action plan to start generating leads. You’ll want to select the channels that make most sense for you.
For this example, we’re going to select 3 channels: social media, content marketing, and local events.
Sample prompt:
You’re going to develop detailed channel marketing plans as a part of the lead generation strategy. The three channels are: social media, content marketing, and local events. You should include specific steps the team needs to take to make the plan a reality.
