Introduction
A Real-Time Lead Alert is a rule based notification sent from the DemandCenter to assigned DemandCenter users.
The main purpose of Lead Alerts is to inform users that a known prospect has recently visited your website and they also fit the description of your organization's criteria of a person that should be followed-up by Marketing or Sales calls.
Lead Alerts are triggered when:
- A prospect has visited your website.
- AND - - Matched the criteria of a lead alert rule.
Typically, the criteria looks at a prospect's history or field data. For example, the person has downloaded at least one PDF. Another example might be territory alerts: if a prospect is from California or Nevada, send the alert to Sally (the Sales representative that handles those two states).

The button will redirect the user to a page that showcases the entire history and data of the prospect.
Push Prospects from Lead Alert to CRM
If your DemandCenter account has been configured to integrate with a CRM solution (e.g. Salesforce), the lead alerts give users the ability to push records directly into their CRM system.
Under the Prospect Details section, click Push to CRM to cause the record to be pushed over to the CRM system. The record should appear within a few minutes in your CRM system.
NOTE: DemandCenter will create Leads in your CRM system, but the prospect can match to a Contact if there is a matching email address in your CRM's database of Contacts.
