Why do we generate many leads but close few sales?
A large lead count can hide poor intent, duplicated records, slow response, weak qualification, unclear ownership, inconsistent follow-up, or an offer that does not address the buyer’s risk. Audit the complete path from enquiry to lost reason before demanding more volume.
