Overview

Once you've created a Campaign, LeadExec gives you granular control over how it handles leads, and the settings available to you depend on which Channel you selected.

Different channels have different needs:

  • Web – Standardized settings, available across most channels

  • Phone – Number and call-flow specific configurations

  • Chat – Dialog design, integrations, and intake forms

  • Ping/Post – Ping-specific qualification and bidding logic

Let's walk through the settings unique to each channel, plus the Advanced Options available to all Campaigns.

Phone Channel Settings

If you selected Phone as your Campaign channel, you'll see an additional tab:

Phone Numbers Tab

This is where you manage the inbound phone numbers associated with your Campaign. You can add, edit, or delete numbers and their properties.

When adding or editing a phone number, you'll configure:

  • Name: A friendly label to identify this number within your Campaign.

  • IVR Number: Select from phone numbers you've already purchased.
    Need to buy one? [Learn how to purchase numbers →]

  • Call Flow: Choose a call flow you've previously built.
    New to call flows? [Set up your first call flow →]

  • Message Flow: Choose a message flow for SMS or text-based interactions.
    Need a message flow? [Create a message flow →]

  • Purchase New Number: A direct option to buy a new number right here, without leaving the Campaign setup.

Chat Channel Settings

If you selected Chat as your Channel, a dedicated Chat Settings tab will appear. This is your control center for designing the chat experience, connecting integrations, and capturing lead data.

Properties

  • Name: Internal name for this chat dialog.

  • Message Flow: Select a pre-built message flow to guide the conversation.

  • Description: Brief note to help you remember this dialog's purpose.

  • Show Heading Text: A short description displayed at the top of the chat window.

  • Show Chat Button: Enables a chat button in the corner of your site.

  • Auto Show Chat: Automatically open the chat window after a delay (in seconds).

Phone Settings (for Chat)

  • Show Call Button: Adds a "Call me now" button at the top of the chat window.

  • Phone Number: Select a purchased number for callbacks.

  • Call Flow: Choose the call flow to use when a user requests a call.

Intake Form

  • Display Intake Form: Show a lead capture form before the chat begins.

    • Set the display order

    • Hard-code a default value

    • Toggle whether the field is Required or Hidden

First Engagements

Trigger custom welcome messages based on the URL a visitor is on:

  • URL Path: Specify the exact path (e.g., /pricing) that should trigger this message.

  • First Message: The message shown to users on that page.

  • Enabled: Turn the engagement on or off.

  • Scheduled: Restrict this message to specific days or times.

Ping/Post Channel Settings

For Ping/Post campaigns, a Ping Options tab becomes available. These settings help you qualify buyers and control the bidding process during the ping phase.

  • Revenue Requirement: Set a minimum revenue threshold for leads sent through this campaign.

  • Profit Requirement: Define a minimum net profit (revenue minus lead cost).

  • Profit Percentage Requirement: Set a required profit margin as a percentage.

  • Minimum Delivery Count: Estimate the minimum number of deliveries you expect per lead.

  • Qualify All Criteria: When enabled, clients must meet all criteria to qualify. When disabled, clients are qualified solely based on the field values sent in the ping request.

  • Field Requirements for Ping: Designate which lead fields are Required or Optional when a ping order is received.

Advanced Campaign Options

These settings are available across all channels, with a few exceptions noted below.

Assignments

  • Default User Assignment: Automatically assign leads received through this Campaign to a specific user.

  • Category: Assign leads to a Lead Type category upon ingestion.

  • Group: Associate this Campaign with a specific Source Group.

Automation

  • Use Delivery Queue: Enable this to queue leads for asynchronous delivery. Disabling it improves response time to the lead source but may affect processing volume.

Available only for Web and Ping/Post campaigns:

  • Enable Automated Engagement: Automatically place a phone call to engage a web lead immediately upon ingestion.
    Important: The selected phone number must have a call flow assigned. Please review ClickPoint's Acceptable Use Policy before enabling.

  • Automated Engagement Phone Number: Select the number to use for automated calls.

  • Engage Using Text Messages: Initiate an SMS conversation with the lead if a mobile number is available.
    Important: The selected number must have a message flow assigned. Review the Acceptable Use Policy before enabling.

  • Revenue Share - Per Sale: Define a fixed dollar amount per sale to be paid back to the lead source.

Additional Scanning Options

  • Client Required Criteria: Create custom delivery criteria that buyers must meet. The system checks leads against these rules during the client scanning process.

That's a comprehensive look at the channel-specific and system-wide settings that help you fine-tune your Campaigns.

Whether you're routing phone calls, engaging web visitors through chat, managing real-time ping-post auctions, or optimizing standard web lead flows, these tools give you the flexibility to tailor every detail.
