CRM Lead Push in Zoho Social is a feature that lets your social media team create a new lead or contact record in Zoho CRM from within Zoho Social without switching to the CRM manually. When monitoring reveals a potential customer in a social conversation, a team member can push that person’s social profile information (name, handle, location, bio) to Zoho CRM as a new lead, capturing social-sourced prospects into the sales pipeline in real time.
When reviewing a social interaction in Zoho Social’s Inbox or Monitors, you can select the option to add the user as a lead in Zoho CRM. Zoho Social passes available profile data (name, social handle, location if public) to CRM and creates a lead record. You can add notes about the context of the social interaction, providing the sales team with background on how the lead was sourced and what they were discussing when discovered.
CRM Lead Push bridges the gap between social media marketing and sales pipeline management. Without this integration, potential leads discovered through social monitoring would need to be manually entered into CRM, a friction point that often results in leads being lost or delayed. The direct push from Zoho Social to Zoho CRM ensures social-sourced leads are captured while the context is fresh and while the prospect is actively engaged in the relevant social conversation.
Yes. CRM Lead Push requires both an active Zoho Social account and an active Zoho CRM account. The integration is enabled through the Zoho Social settings by connecting your Zoho CRM organisation. Once connected, the Push to CRM option appears in the Inbox and monitoring views for the relevant profiles. Both applications must be in the same Zoho organisation for the integration to work.
Yes. Zoho Social keeps a record of social interactions that have been pushed to CRM, visible in the Inbox history. In Zoho CRM, the lead record includes the social source information, and you can filter the leads list by source to see all leads created from social media. This visibility helps sales managers assess the quality and volume of leads being generated through social listening and engagement activities.
