Explicit Preferences (Polls): Running polls like "Which of these features is most important to you?" directly gathers zero-party data that can qualify leads (e.g., identify users interested in a specific high-value feature).
Use for Lead Gen: Identify hot leads (direct inquiries), inform the creation of targeted lead magnets, and refine your messaging to address common pain points discovered in group discussions.
3. Bot Interaction Data (The Primary Lead Generation Powerhouse):
This is the most structured and actionable data for lead generation on Telegram. When a user interacts with your bot, you can collect:
User ID: (but not personally identifiable information like their real name or email unless they explicitly provide it). This allows you to track interactions.
Chat History/Flow: The sequence of messages exchanged, choices made through buttons, and questions answered.
User Inputs (Zero-Party Data): Any information the user types or selects in response to your bot's prompts. This is where you explicitly collect lead data.
Examples of Collectible Data:
Expressed Interests: "Which category are you most brazil telegram users mobile phone number list interested in? (e.g., 'E-commerce Solutions', 'Digital Marketing', 'Local Business Support')"
Needs/Pain Points: "What's your biggest challenge with online sales right now?" (open text or multiple choice)
Contact Information (with Consent): "Would you like a free consultation? Please provide your email address:" (Crucially, always with explicit opt-in).
Qualification Questions: "What is your budget range for this project?" or "Are you looking for a solution for a small business or an enterprise?"
Preferred Communication: "How would you like us to follow up? (Email/Phone/Telegram Message)"
Behavioral Triggers: Specific actions taken within the bot (e.g., clicking a "Pricing" button, completing a lead magnet download, asking about a specific product feature).
How to Use for Lead Gen: Bots allow for automated lead qualification and segmentation. Based on their responses, leads can be:
Scored (e.g., high-interest leads vs. general interest).
Segmented into different lists (e.g., "Enterprise Leads," "Small Business Leads," "Product X Interest").
Passed to a CRM for sales follow-up (if contact info collected).
Nurtured with highly personalized follow-up sequences directly within Telegram.
