Last updated: 2025-01-29

Definition of a Prospect – Interested Party

A prospect is a potential customer who has shown some level of interest or engagement with your product or service. They meet certain criteria that indicate they are more likely to become a lead and eventually a customer. 

Key Characteristics of a Prospect:

  • Has already shown some level of interest or engagement with your product or service.
  • May have engaged by visiting your website, responding to an email or call, filling out a form, or visiting your store.
  • Is a step ahead of a suspect but has not yet been fully qualified as a lead.

Next Step:

  • The goal is to nurture the prospect by providing relevant information and engagement opportunities, guiding them toward becoming a lead and, ultimately, a customer.
