Glossary term

Speed to lead

Speed to lead is the time between a lead's submission and the first meaningful contact. Faster responses generally improve the chance of reaching and converting a lead, which is why teams automate first touches with CRM workflows.

Why agents care

Calculator leads arrive while the visitor is still thinking about their numbers. Automating a consent-based first text or email, and calling quickly, makes the most of that moment.

Example

Example: a webhook triggers a HighLevel workflow that sends a personalized text within a minute, referencing the payment the buyer tested.
