Where the handoff breaks.
Unqualified enquiries inflate a pipeline and leave follow-ups scattered across personal notes.
SALES TEAMS
Keep leads separate from real opportunities.
Give the next conversation a responsible owner and a qualification decision before it enters the pipeline.
A clearer next step.
A deliberate lead-to-opportunity handoff with source context and a visible next action.
Capture the enquiry
Keep what the person actually asked separate from assumptions about budget or intent.
Qualify deliberately
Review the need, responsible decision-maker and useful next conversation.
Convert once
Carry the record forward without duplicating it or losing the source.
