​What is Lead Management? 

Lead management encompasses the continuous procedures of drawing in leads (potential customers), assessing their suitability, and employing focused strategies to transform them into customers. 

Effective lead management is the cornerstone of a successful sales process. The focus is on acquiring qualified leads, those that align with your target personas, and navigating them through the lead lifecycle with optimal efficiency.
