Review source quality, caveats, and approval boundaries before turning prospecting funnel handoff readiness checklist into a prospecting action.

Funnel math and scenario quality

Evidence to review: Traffic unit, stage conversion, offer value, expansion path, revenue timing, and confidence label.

  • Separate observed inputs from assumptions before treating a scenario as decision evidence.
  • If the model is sensitive to an assumed number, keep the recommendation as a scenario until the source is verified.
  • Funnel math and scenario quality is supported by visible inputs and the caveat is clear.

Commerce and revenue quality

Evidence to review: Product performance, order quality, payment signal, cash timing, and margin or payback caveat.

  • Connect campaign or funnel movement with commerce and payment context before judging quality.
  • If revenue quality or cash timing is missing, avoid turning source movement into a payback conclusion.
  • Commerce and revenue quality is supported by visible inputs and the caveat is clear.

Operating failure modes

Evidence to review: Implementation status, lead flow, delivery quality, follow-up owner, and customer-result feedback.

  • Separate a funnel leak from an operating leak, such as no follow-up, no promotion, weak delivery, or no owner.
  • If the operating owner or follow-up path is unclear, mark the recommendation as a process fix before a creative fix.
  • Operating failure modes is supported by visible inputs and the caveat is clear.

Conversion quality and measurement confidence

Evidence to review: Conversion action, diagnostic event, downstream quality source, attribution caveat, and value signal.

  • Separate decision-driving conversions from diagnostic events and caveated attribution signals.
  • If conversion quality is unknown, keep the recommendation caveated until the downstream source is reviewed.
  • Conversion quality and measurement confidence is supported by visible inputs and the caveat is clear.

Lead source and prospect fit

Evidence to review: Traffic source, prospect segment, lead magnet, qualification clue, and approval state.

  • Check whether the source is attracting prospects who match the intended funnel decision.
  • If source fit is unclear, refine the prospect definition before increasing traffic or handoff volume.
  • Lead source and prospect fit is supported by visible inputs and the caveat is clear.
