🚨 Not every lead is going to be a perfect ICP fit. We get it.
But that doesn’t mean sales gets a pass to ignore the leads marketing is generating. When growth matters and efficiency matters, every signal needs to be treated with care.
Too often, leads fall into a black hole. Marketing tosses them over the fence. No one catches them. No one follows up. No one even notices.
That’s not just a missed opportunity—it’s wasted budget, broken trust, and lost revenue.
Sales and marketing have to work together to close that gap. Catch the ball. Run the play. And if a lead isn’t a fit? Great—disqualify it with clarity, and help your marketing team refine targeting.
🎧 Tune into the full episode of Growth Driver with Evan Liang, CEO and co-founder of LeanData, where we dig into why alignment isn’t optional—and why lead handoff needs to be a two-way street.
