Lead Scoring Your Sales Team Will Actually Trust

Hands sorting profile cards with one highlighted in orange

Not every lead deserves the same attention. Without a shared definition of "qualified," marketing celebrates volume while sales complains about quality.

Agree on fit and intent

Score on two dimensions: does this company fit, and are they showing buying intent?

Keep it simple

Start with a handful of signals:

  • Industry and company size
  • Role of the contact
  • Pages visited or actions taken
  • Stated timeline or need

Review with sales monthly

Compare scores with real outcomes and adjust. A model nobody trusts is a model nobody uses.
