Why it matters

  • A calibrated score routes the right leads fast and protects reps from garbage. It's the brain of lead management.

Best practices

  • Design from outcomes (closed-won), not activity.
  • Weight behavior and fit deliberately.
  • Test and calibrate against results.
  • Keep it explainable.

Common mistakes

  • Scoring engagement, not intent.
  • Weights set by opinion, never tested.
  • A model that never gets recalibrated.

Key questions

  • Does a high score predict a sale?
  • What would make the model more accurate?
