Survey says paid search best for lead-gen

BtoB magazine posted a brief piece on a survey of lead-gen professionals, and 35.9% said pay-per-click campaigns are most effective, followed by online ad campaigns (17.9%), opt-in email campaigns (11.3%), trade shows (7.7%), direct mail (6.5%) and cold calling (5.9%).

Media coverage that gets your phones ringing was not considered a lead-gen tool, perhaps because the survey comes from Advertise.com, the "premier platform for Keyword PPC, Display, Email, and Remarketing campaigns." Still, for marcomm pros developing lead gen ideas, the survey may have value.
