Imagine your sales team has a long line of people waiting outside the store, but only a few will actually buy. AI lead scoring is like a smart bouncer that looks at each person’s behavior and history, then quietly tells your reps, “Talk to these five first; they’re most likely to buy today.”
Sales teams waste time chasing low-quality leads and rely on gut feel or static rules to prioritize outreach. AI lead scoring automatically ranks leads by their likelihood to convert, so reps focus on the hottest opportunities and managers can forecast pipeline more accurately.
