To measure the ROI of a purchased prospect list, importing the list as new Leads and mapping the Campaign during import is recommended. Here’s why:

Campaign Attribution: By associating the leads with a specific campaign, CK can easily track ROI by monitoring campaign-related metrics such as conversions, sales, and revenue directly attributable to the purchased list.

Lead Tracking and Management: Importing as Leads allows for centralized tracking of all new prospects, enabling sales reps to follow up and progress leads through the sales funnel. Associating these leads with a campaign helps assess the effectiveness of the purchased list.

Salesforce Best Practices: Salesforce recommends using Campaigns to track marketing initiatives and their ROI. By mapping leads to a campaign, CK can leverage standard Salesforce campaign reporting to assess effectiveness and ROI.

Salesforce’s documentation on Leads and Campaign Management provides details on importing leads and associating them with campaigns for ROI tracking.

In summary, importing the list as new Leads and mapping the Campaign during import (Option C) allows Cloud Kicks to effectively track and measure the ROI of the purchased list.
