Define a qualified lead before comparing campaigns
Campaign comparisons become more useful when everyone agrees what a suitable opportunity looks like. Write the definition with the people who deliver the service and handle the enquiries.
Start with service fit
List the requirements the business can support and the conditions that rule an enquiry out. Include relevant location or order constraints. Keep the definition specific enough for two team members to apply consistently.
Separate contactability from suitability
A missing response or failed contact attempt is different from an unsuitable requirement. Use separate statuses and useful reasons. This prevents operational gaps from being attributed automatically to campaign targeting.
Keep qualification proportionate
Collect enough information to prepare the next conversation without turning every initial form into a long questionnaire. Some details are better confirmed during discovery. Agree who owns each stage.
Review the definition as the offer changes
Update the criteria when services, coverage or capacity change. Apply the same definitions when comparing sources. Record qualified opportunities and later outcomes rather than relying only on the initial submission count.
Bring a useful brief to the review
Record the current setup, the decision you need to make, who owns the next action and how completion will be checked. Keep business evidence separate from assumptions.
Questions before you begin
Should an uncontacted enquiry be labelled unsuitable?
Keep response status separate from service fit. Without a useful contact attempt or adequate information, the team may not have enough evidence to judge suitability.
