Stop Losing Revenue - Help Your Sales Teams Identify and Close More PQLs with Journy.io
Sales teams in product-led growth (PLG) companies struggle with poor lead qualification, slow outreach, and missed upsell opportunities due to a lack of real-time product insights. Journy.io solves this by transforming user behavior data into actionable insights, helping sales teams identify Product-Qualified Leads (PQLs), personalize outreach, and accelerate sales cycles.
Empower Your Sales Team Identify and Close More PQLs with Journy.io
Sales teams in product-led growth (PLG) companies struggle to effectively qualify, prioritize, and convert leads due to a lack of visibility into user behavior and product engagement. Traditional lead scoring methods fail to capture true buying intent, resulting in wasted time on low-intent prospects, slow and generic outreach, and missed upsell opportunities. Additionally, poor alignment between sales and customer success leads to ineffective onboarding and increased churn risk.
Without real-time product usage insights, sales teams operate reactively, leading to longer sales cycles, lower conversion rates, and missed revenue opportunities from expansion.
1. Poor Lead Qualification (MQLs ≠ SQLs)
Traditional lead scoring methods (e.g., based on firmographics or marketing touchpoints) often fail to predict true buying intent.
Journy leverages product-led scoring, analyzing in-app behavior and user engagement to identify Product-Qualified Leads (PQLs).
Sales teams can focus on leads that have demonstrated real product adoption, rather than wasting time on low-intent prospects.
2. No Visibility into Product Engagement
Sales teams often lack real-time data on how leads interact with the product, making it difficult to tailor outreach.
Journy provides individual and account-level usage analytics, helping sales teams understand which features prospects use, how often, and where they get stuck
This allows for hyper-personalized sales conversations, increasing the chances of closing a deal.
3. Weak Expansion & Upsell Opportunities
In PLG companies, expansion revenue is critical, but identifying when and which customers are ready to upgrade is a challenge.
Journy monitors user behavior to identify upsell triggers—for example, when a customer consistently hits usage limits or explores premium features.
This helps sales teams proactively reach out before a competitor does.
4. Slow and Generic Outreach
Without knowing a lead’s true intent or pain points, sales teams rely on generic, spray-and-pray outreach.
With Journy, sales reps receive real-time alerts via email, Slack or directly in CRM when a lead takes a high-intent action (e.g., invites teammates, integrates another tool).
This enables timely and relevant outreach, improving response rates and accelerating the sales cycle.
5. Misalignment Between Sales & Customer Success
Many Sales teams struggle to handoff customers effectively to customer success (CS) after a deal closes.
Journy enables seamless sharing of customer behavior data between Sales and CS, ensuring that the onboarding and retention teams have context on why a customer bought.
This results in better onboarding, fewer churn risks, and stronger customer relationships.
How Journy Helps Sales Teams
Journy empowers Sales teams by providing real-time product usage insights and behavioral intelligence to improve lead qualification, outreach timing, and deal conversion. Let's deep dive into this:
1. Identifies Product-Qualified Leads (PQLs)
Traditional MQLs (marketing-qualified leads) don’t always reflect true buying intent.
Journy scores leads based on in-app behavior (e.g., feature adoption, session frequency, team collaboration).
Sales reps can prioritize leads that have demonstrated real engagement and readiness to buy, not just those who filled out a form.
2. Enables Data-Driven, Personalized Outreach
Sales teams often lack context on how a prospect is using the product.
Journy provides real-time insights into user activity, such as:
Which features they use most
Where they drop off
When they reach key milestones
This allows reps to tailor their messaging to specific pain points or trigger outreach at the perfect moment (e.g., when a user invites a team member or integrates another tool).
3. Accelerates Sales Cycles
Instead of waiting for marketing handoffs, sales teams get instant alerts when a lead reaches a critical usage threshold.
Journy integrates with CRM and sales engagement tools, automating follow-ups when users show buying signals.
Reps can engage leads while they are most active, increasing response rates and shortening the time to close.
4. Surfaces Expansion & Upsell Opportunities
In PLG businesses, expansion revenue is key—but knowing when to pitch an upsell is difficult.
Journy detects upsell triggers, such as:
Users consistently hitting usage limits
Exploring premium features
Increased team adoption
This enables Sales teams to reach out proactively before a competitor does.
5. Improves Sales & Customer Success Alignment
Poor handoff from Sales to Customer Success often leads to drop-offs in onboarding.
Journy ensures CS teams receive full user engagement data, so they can proactively assist in onboarding and prevent churn.
This results in better customer retention and long-term revenue growth.
