You can use the Lead Status report to see all of the leads you received within a specific timeframe. This allows you to look across the data to investigate why certain leads go well and others do not. For example:
You may realize that bad leads all have a long contact time
A specific sales person never sends quotes
The sales team doesn't follow up frequently enough
By reviewing this report and identifying areas of opportunity, you can improve your workflows and book more jobs.
