MQL Leads

MQL leads without doing your own prospecting.

We find the companies, map out the DMU, approach them and detect interest. As soon as a prospect shows demonstrable interest, the MQL goes straight to your sales team.

Definition

Lead, MQL or SQL?

Three terms that are often confused. This is how we define them.

01

Lead

Een contact in je doelgroep. Nog geen signaal van interesse. Alleen potentieel.

02

MQL

Een contact dat aantoonbare commerciële interesse toont én binnen de afgesproken criteria valt. Dit levert Vikingleads.

03

SQL

Een lead die door jouw salesteam is gekwalificeerd op budget, timing en behoefte. Dat gebeurt in jouw salesproces.

Qualification

When do we count something as an MQL?

Not on activity. Only on demonstrable commercial interest within the agreed target audience.

Not an MQL

  • No response
  • Only opened
  • "Not interested"
  • Out of office
  • Unsubscribe

Is an MQL

  • Positive commercial interest
  • Request for information or a proposal
  • Wants to discuss the solution

Pricing

What does an MQL cost?

Managed Outreach works with €299 per month plus a pre-agreed amount per delivered MQL. That price differs per target market, industry, target audience, DMU, complexity and country — which is why we don't quote a standard rate.

Delivery

Every MQL includes the company, the contact person, their role, the reply that shows interest, the campaign and the date. Delivery is by email by default; other routes such as CRM or webhook are possible depending on your setup.

We agree on the qualification criteria before the campaign starts. If a lead falls outside the target audience or lacks commercial interest, it is not an MQL and we don't invoice it.
