Measurement and optimisation

Every enquiry reaches an owner, with a clock on it

Operloom defines and builds the path an enquiry takes from first contact to a named owner with a next action, and makes each step measurable.

01Business problems

Most leaks are between the steps

Capture usually works. What fails is what happens in the hours after: no owner, no clock, no escalation and no record of the source.

  • Enquiries assigned by whoever notices first
  • No agreed definition of a qualified lead
  • Source and campaign lost at the form
  • No escalation when nobody responds
  • Conversion reported without a denominator

02The workflow

Seven steps, each with an owner

The process is defined end to end, and every step has an owner, an input, an output and a measurement.

  1. 01Capture, with source and consent recorded
  2. 02Enrichment against agreed sources
  3. 03Qualification against criteria sales signed off
  4. 04Routing by territory, segment and availability
  5. 05Ownership, with a response-time target
  6. 06Follow-up sequence with escalation
  7. 07Measurement against the agreed definitions

03Qualification

Criteria the sales team actually agreed

A scoring model only works if the people acting on it helped write it and can explain a score without opening the CRM.

  • Fit and intent separated, not blended
  • Thresholds agreed with the receiving team
  • Negative scoring for disqualifying signals
  • Decay so old activity stops counting
  • Scheduled review against closed outcomes

04Service levels

A clock somebody is accountable for

Response-time targets are only real when a breach is visible to someone who can act on it.

  1. 01Response target per segment
  2. 02Automatic escalation on breach
  3. 03Visible queue and ageing report
  4. 04Named deputy for absence
  5. 05Weekly review of misses

Common questions

Question: Do we need lead scoring?
Operloom replies:

Not always. If volume is low enough that every enquiry gets worked, routing and a response-time target deliver more than a scoring model that nobody trusts.
