Every lead you have, whether they've shown interest or not, is a lead that you've paid for. Whether you spent money on an ad to generate them, or you paid reps to find and research them, or you bought tickets to an event to meet them. Optimizing your lead qualification and routing is a practice that not only helps increase ROI on these leads going forward, but it can be applied to all of those contacts you've already spent money on.
