It’s a simple fact. Qualified sales leads are the lifeblood of any sales organization. So why are so many leads ignored or underutilized?

In this paper we will make the case for three possible changes in your thinking:

• Sales and marketing organizations are better served by spending marginally less on lead generation and more on the process of lead management.

• All sales leads are not created equal — identifying “sales-ready” leads is a critical step in the lead generation and management process.

• Leads that are not sales-ready today can be nurtured and cultivated to be sales-ready in the future.

The Commerce Department recently created the National Advanced Manufacturing Partnership Program Office to bring together stakeholders and drive investments in advanced manufacturing. 

According to Henry Cialone, EWI President and CEO, "We were honored to provide our facility for this important event. Secretary Bryson underscored the importance of manufacturing to our nation's health. At EWI, we believe that U.S. manufacturing can regain its previous status as world leader, but bold steps must be taken now. Currently, EWI and The Manufacturing Institute are collaborating on the development of an innovation infrastructure model that will enable our country to mature and commercialize breakthrough technologies more quickly. Industry response to our proposed Manufacturing Accelerator Network has been very strong, and we look forward to sharing the concept with State and Federal Government agencies next month."
