What are Leads

Lead Value and Quality is a key performance indicator (KPI) that measures both the potential revenue that incoming leads represent and the likelihood that those leads will successfully convert into customers. This KPI helps businesses predict future sales revenue and refine their lead generation strategies to focus on attracting high-quality prospects. High-value, high-quality leads are more likely to move through the sales funnel efficiently and contribute to long-term business growth. Monitoring this metric enables better resource allocation, more targeted marketing efforts, and improved sales forecasting.
