A lead from an ad turns into revenue only if someone calls it and hands it to the right person. This list covers what must be ready in the CRM, on the calendar, and between teams, from the moment a form lands to a won or lost record.

Lead capture and first response

9 items
  • Each form (demo, trial, quote, webinar, ebook) lands in the CRM with its own source tag, so a demo request never mixes with an ebook download.
  • A demo request reaches the rep by email and phone notification within seconds, and a test submission measured the delay.
  • After-hours requests have a morning call queue and an auto-reply that tells the person exactly when they'll hear back.
