Mongoose Metrics is heading off to San Jose, Calif. next week, May 3 - 7, 2010 for the eMetrics Marketing Optimization Summit at the Fairmount Hotel.  We will be among hundreds of sponsors and exhibitors who all are passionate about measuring marketing results for success.  Mongoose co-founders Steve Abbey and Jeff Tirey will lead the contingent of call tracking experts including Drew Johnson and Tim Gill in showing marketers how call tracking is the missing piece in the web analytics puzzle. 

“If you don’t know what’s making the phone ring you’re at a disadvantage when it comes to optimizing your marketing dollars.  With call tracking, we help clients expose what happens before, during and after phone conversations to provide actionable data for quick and effective marketing spending,” says Steve Abbey, co-founder of Mongoose Metrics.

Thanks to prolific blogger Joe “Giuseppe” Zuccaro, aka The Marketing Consigliere (www.marketing-consigliere.com) for educating his readers about the power of call tracking.  His entertaining take — complete with an adorable picture of a mongoose wearing headphones — simply explains how and why marketers are using call tracking with CRM vendors such as SalesForce CRM.  Click here for the story, “Tracking Phone Conversion Like a Mongoose.”

We’re delighted to let everyone know that we’ve launched www.calltracking.ca, a Web site dedicated to educating Canadian businesses about call tracking technology using local and toll-free Canadian phone numbers. 

Our service coverage also includes all of the United States and the United Kingdom.  Here’s a complete list of our global service coverage. 

Today we introduced another functionality to help marketers increase sales, reduce costs and improve customer loyalty.  

Our call tracking data now integrates with SalesForce CRM to help users understand the entire marketing funnel from first click to phone call. 

With the addition of call tracking data, SalesForce CRM users can view a number of rich data points such as:

• Which marketing sources drive phone calls.
• Which keywords are driving phone calls.
• Last Web page visited before calling.
• Caller’s entire click history before placing the call.
• Caller geo-location.
• Custom data relevant to your needs.

“Call tracking for CRM software is a natural.  It’s really all about providing access to relevant information about customer activity through the entire sales cycle — from marketing source to final sale,” says Bradley Reynolds, chief executive officer for Mongoose. 

For example, Mongoose’s phone call data stream automatically creates and updates leads within SalesForce CRM and conversely, changes in SalesForce CRM are immediately show in Mongoose Metrics’ data.
