MQL to SQL

As you may know, MQL stands for marketing qualified leads while SQL stands for sales qualified leads, but what is the difference between them and what do you need to do in order to convert an MQL to an SQL? In order for a lead to by qualified by the marketing department it has to go through 2 steps before being sent to the sales department which are:


  • A survey with a series of questions which shows if the leads meet the MQL criteria or not.

  • Following up on the lead which is executed by the account executive.

After the MQL is sent to the sales department, the sales team now fully owns this lead and it’s their job to convert this MQL to a SQL. In order to do that, the sales person has to go through 3 steps in order to know if this lead could be an SQL or not, these steps are:

  • Contacting/meeting the potential customer to understand their need and wants.

  • Asking a series of question to check if the customer meets the SQL criteria or not.

  • If the customer is interested in your offer; then this lead is considered as an SQL

    and the sales person can proceed to close the deal.

The usage of surveys, focus groups or product testing. It is a critical component in determining how the market will receive the product. There are two types of data gathered in the research:

Primary information:

Which is the data that has been collected by the company or an outside company or entity paid to gather them. And those type of information are also split in two categories.
