Sending marketing activity to sales in Slack, usefully.

Most marketing to sales alerting posts every form fill and email open, which sales learns to ignore. What earns attention is marketing activity on an account with an open deal, especially a return to pricing by somebody already on the deal.

Why sales ignores marketing alerts.

An email open is not a signal, it is an image loading. A whitepaper download from an unrelated person at a large company is not a buying signal either.

Post enough of those into a sales channel and the channel becomes marketing noise, which is a hard reputation to recover from.

What is actually worth sending.

Somebody on an open deal returned to pricing. That is the strongest marketing sourced signal there is.

A new person from an account with an open deal engaged for the first time. That is a stakeholder appearing, which matters.

Repeated visits within a short window, rather than a single visit.

Route it to the owner.

Marketing activity on an account with an owner should go to that owner, not to a shared channel. Anything posted to a channel is somebody else job.

Better as a score input.

Marketing engagement is a real signal and a weak one on its own. It works best weighted beside meetings, replies and the buying process rather than as a standalone alert.

Kaypo scores it as one group among several, with a half life so last month activity does not read as current, and puts the result in the morning digest rather than in a separate feed.

Questions

Should marketing activity go to a sales Slack channel?

Only the activity that is specific and current: somebody on an open deal returning to pricing, or a new person from that account engaging for the first time. Form fills and email opens do not clear the bar.

Is an email open a buying signal?

An email open is not a buying signal. It usually means an image loaded. Repeated site visits from somebody already on a deal is a far stronger signal.

It arrives in Slack
