  • The structural and organization factors that contribute to poor follow-up on lead generation.
  • The statistics and research around what really happens with the leads being passed to sales.
  • Three real-world scenarios where significant opportunities slipped through companies' fingers.
  • A five-step program for closing the gaps, providing proper oversight, and ensuring accountability.
