Qualified Lead Generation Guide and Checklist for Morocco (Part 1)

Lead generation checklist: sales rep on the phone in a Casablanca office

A training centre in Casablanca launches a Facebook campaign. Enquiries come in, but the sales rep only calls a few of them back the same day; the others wait until the end of the week. A month later, the team decides that "the leads are bad". Often the problem is not the advertising: it is the response time and the lack of follow-up.

This lead generation checklist helps service SMEs, training centres, clinics, real estate agencies and B2B companies in Morocco generate prospects who become customers. This first part sets the framework: key figures, budget, the metrics to track and a 90-day plan. The second part brings together the checklists to tick. To talk it through with us, use our contact digital agency Morocco page.

How to use this guide

Read it with the person who runs marketing and the person who calls prospects back. Every item that is not settled gets an owner and a date.

  • Part 1 (here): understand the context, set a budget, choose your metrics and plan.
  • Part 2: tick, step by step, what is ready and what is still to do, from defining a qualified lead to cost per sale.

The idea is simple: a lead only has value if it becomes a customer. So the guide follows the whole journey, from the ad to the sale, not just the number of forms received.

Golden rule: judge a campaign on cost per sale, not cost per form. A cheap lead who never buys is expensive.

Key figures for your lead generation checklist

Three figures to keep in mind before you launch a campaign:

nearly 7 timesmore likely to qualify a lead when a company contacts it within an hour of the enquiry, rather than an hour later or more. Harvard Business Review
22.8 millionsocial media user identities in Morocco at the end of 2025, or 59.1% of the population. DataReportal
16.7 millionpeople aged 18 and over reachable by TikTok ads in Morocco at the end of 2025, against 22.8 million on Facebook and 15.1 million on Instagram (ad reach, not active users). DataReportal

For many customers in Morocco, WhatsApp is the natural place to talk: a click-to-WhatsApp button and a fast reply often make the difference. Forms, WhatsApp and the CRM must, however, comply with Law 09-08 on personal data protection, supervised by the CNDP.

KPIs to track every month

You do not need dozens of numbers. These metrics are enough to see where things get stuck:

Metric Where to find it What it tells you
Leads received by source CRM, forms, WhatsApp Which channels bring enquiries?
Time to first response CRM, WhatsApp Business Are prospects called back quickly?
Share of qualified leads CRM Do enquiries match your ideal customer?
Meetings and quotes sent CRM, calendar Are conversations moving forward?
Lead-to-sale conversion rate CRM, invoicing How many leads become customers?
Cost per lead and cost per sale Budget ÷ leads, budget ÷ sales What does a customer cost, channel by channel?

Your 90-day action plan

Period Actions
Days 1 to 30 Write down what a qualified lead is, choose a single offer, build or rebuild the landing page, track forms and WhatsApp clicks, check consent (Law 09-08)
Days 31 to 60 Launch a campaign on one channel only, set a response time and a follow-up sequence, log every lead in the CRM with its source and status
Days 61 to 90 Work out the cost per sale of each channel, cut what does not sell, scale what does, test automating the first WhatsApp replies
