Industry Customization: Tailoring XPRT for Your Business

One size doesn’t fit all when it comes to lead qualification. A carpenter needs different information than a consultant, and a home service provider has different requirements than a B2B service company. XPRT’s industry customization capabilities enable you to create qualification questionnaires that are perfectly tailored to your business, ensuring you gather the right information every time.

The Importance of Industry-Specific Qualification

According to Forrester Research, businesses that use industry-specific qualification processes see 45% higher conversion rates than those using generic approaches. Industry customization matters because:

1. Relevant Information Gathering

Generic qualification forms ask generic questions that don’t capture what you actually need to know. Industry-specific questions gather information that’s directly relevant to your business.

2. Better Client Experience

Clients appreciate when you ask questions that make sense for your industry. It shows you understand their needs and are prepared to help.

3. Improved Qualification Accuracy

Industry-specific qualification criteria help you identify truly qualified leads, not just leads that filled out a form.

4. Faster Sales Cycles

When you have the right information upfront, you can move faster through the sales process without multiple back-and-forth exchanges.

How Conditional Logic Works

Example: Carpenter Questionnaire

1. Property Type: House or apartment?
   • If House → Ask about square footage
   • If Apartment → Ask about floor number and building access
2. Work Type: Repair, replacement, or new installation?
   • If Repair → Ask about current condition
   • If Replacement → Ask about existing materials
   • If New Installation → Ask about space dimensions
3. Budget Range: Under $1,000, $1,000-$5,000, or over $5,000?
   • If Under $1,000 → Show budget-friendly options
   • If Over $5,000 → Show premium options
