How to integrate Drift interactions with Salesforce

Drift is a fantastic tool that marketers can use to support customer service and drive lead generation.

Ruler Analytics integrates with Drift to allow you to better track your live chat conversations and conversions in the apps you need it.

Specifically, you can send your live chat data into Salesforce to monitor sales chats happening in Drift.

It allows you to prove the return of your live chat tool and double down on channels that are driving the most value.

How to send Drift conversions to Salesforce using Ruler Analytics

The Ruler integration with Drift and Salesforce lets you create leads and contacts from chats in Salesforce and assign lead source data. Here’s how it works.

Capture each anonymous visitor over multiple touchpoints and traffic sources

Ruler is a marketing attribution tool that tracks your anonymous website visitors every time they engage with your content and campaigns giving you a full picture of their marketing journey.

Looking at this specific journey, we can see that a visitor clicked on a Google Ad after searching the keyword “marketing attribution” and converted via a form fill.

Pass Drift conversion and marketing lead source data to Salesforce

When a visitor converts into a lead via Drift, Ruler will match them to their marketing journey and pass captured data over to Salesforce. It means you can see the full conversion and lead source data directly in your CRM.

⚠️ Important note: You’ll need to set up custom fields in Salesforce to send first/last click data from Ruler Analytics. We have a guide on how to create custom fields in Salesforce that can help you get started.

Attribute Salesforce revenue from closed/won deals to your marketing tactics

When a lead agrees to a deal or completes a sale, the revenue data will get sent back to the Ruler dashboard so that you can measure the impact of your marketing sources, campaigns, keywords and ads based on monetary values.

Send Salesforce revenue data to the tools you use every day

Ruler can scrape Salesforce for key revenue and deal data that you can then push into marketing apps like Google Analytics, Google Ads, Facebook and Microsoft Advertising.

This allows you to report back on revenue and accurately attribute closed sales back to your marketing campaigns.
