			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>ActiveConversion recently published an &#8220;eHow To&#8221; guide to Lead Nurturing that we at the SMB Marketing Blog would like to share with you (<a href="http://activeconversion.com/lead-nurturing-guide.html?source=SMBblog" target="blank">link</a>, or click on the image at right).</p>
<p>From the landing page for the guide:<a href="http://activeconversion.com/lead-nurturing-guide.html?source=SMBblog"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-796" title="lead nurturing guide" src="http://b2b-marketingblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/lead-nurturing-guide-232x300.jpg" alt="lead nurturing guide" width="232" height="300" /></a></p>
<blockquote><p>Lead nurturing is the process of communicating with prospects who are not yet ready to buy.</p>
<p>Only 10 to 25 percent of all leads are sales-ready. A similar percentage of leads are not qualified at all. This means 50 to 80 percent of all leads generated are potentially wasted if no appropriate action is taken.</p>
<p>With lead nurturing B2B marketers can realize significant benefits. Leads that are not sales-ready are not lost and significant online lead generation effort is not wasted. Automation of lead nurturing increases the ROI of all online marketing activities.</p></blockquote>
