What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our team was overwhelmed by unqualified leads from Google Ads targeting e-commerce brands, with conversion rates below 10%. Their custom scoring model now identifies high-fit prospects for our PPC and CRO services—we closed three $10K/month retainers in the first quarter, a milestone we hadn't hit in over a year."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your lead scoring differ from tools like HubSpot or Marketo?
Unlike those platforms' templated models, which apply broad rules across industries, our system is custom-built for digital marketing agencies. We train on your specific data—such as lead interactions with case studies or demo requests—to create scores that reflect your unique client journey. This results in higher accuracy, with clients seeing 2-3x better prioritization than generic tools. Integration is deeper too, pulling from niche sources like ad platform APIs, and we own the code, so you're not locked into their pricing tiers. Setup takes 4-6 weeks, but the tailored fit pays off immediately in focused sales efforts.
What data do you need to build the scoring model?
We start with your CRM export (leads, opportunities, closed deals) and any analytics from Google Analytics or campaign tools. No sensitive client info required—just behavioral patterns and outcomes. Our process anonymizes data during training to ensure privacy. For agencies, we emphasize signals like content engagement or webinar drop-off rates, which generic models overlook. If your data is sparse, we bootstrap with industry benchmarks from our 150+ deployments, then refine iteratively. This approach has helped even smaller agencies with under 500 historical leads achieve reliable scoring within the first month.
How long until we see results from the lead scoring system?
Most agencies notice improvements in lead prioritization within 2-4 weeks post-launch, as the AI processes incoming data in real-time. Full ROI, like 25-30% higher close rates, typically hits by month three, once your team adjusts to the scores. We include a 30-day tuning period with weekly check-ins to calibrate thresholds. For example, one client redirected efforts from 200 low-score leads monthly, converting 15 high-scorers into $50K contracts. It's not instant magic, but the custom nature ensures quick alignment with your workflow, far outpacing trial-and-error with off-the-shelf options.
Can the system handle leads from multiple channels like SEO, PPC, and social?
Absolutely—our architecture unifies data from all sources into a single scoring framework. We map channel-specific behaviors, such as PPC click-through rates or social engagement depth, to predict fit for your services. This prevents siloed assessments that plague multi-channel agencies. With bidirectional integrations, scores update dynamically; a lead might start low from organic search but rise after PPC interactions. We've built this for agencies juggling five+ channels, reducing cross-tool manual checks by 70%. Scalability is key: it handles spikes from viral campaigns without missing a beat.
What if our agency grows or changes services—does the system adapt?
Yes, our models are designed for evolution. Built on modular code, we retrain quarterly or on-demand when you add services like influencer marketing. No starting over—just feeding new data to refine archetypes. Clients expanding from core digital to full-service saw scores maintain 80% accuracy post-update. Unlike rigid SaaS tools, this ownership lets you tweak without extra fees. We provide self-service guidelines, but our support ensures seamless transitions, keeping your lead pipeline sharp as your agency scales to new revenue streams.
Is this suitable for smaller agencies with limited budgets?
Definitely—tailored for SMBs like yours (10-100 employees), we avoid enterprise bloat. Pricing starts at a one-time build fee, with minimal ongoing costs since you own the system. For a 20-person agency, implementation might cost less than three months of a premium CRM add-on, but delivers perpetual value. We've helped bootstrapped firms prioritize leads to land their first big retainers, with payback in 4-6 months via 20% efficiency gains. It's flexible: scale features as you grow, without the subscription chaos of juggling tools.
