qualification & routing
not every call is an opportunity. not every opportunity goes to the same place.
both run on a framework agreed with you before the first call, not a caller's impression of a good call.
fit · intent · timing · need · readiness · next action
fix what counts as qualified and where it goes next, and the rest of the lane has something worth acting on.
the qualification framework
six inputs, agreed with your team before the first call.
before a single call goes out, we agree on what "qualified" means for your business: the criteria a caller checks live, on the call, before an opportunity is marked ready. what counts differs by industry and by lane; the six inputs do not.
-
01
fit
the account matches the target profile agreed for the lane - customer, size, territory.
-
02
intent
a stated signal surfaced on the call, not someone who stayed on the line.
-
03
timing
a real window - this month, this quarter, this season - not "maybe someday".
-
04
need
a requirement the contact surfaced themselves, not one assumed from a list.
-
05
readiness
budget awareness, a decision role, or a next approver named on the call.
-
06
next action
a defined next step leaves the call with it, not an open question to chase.
the criteria are yours. we hold the line on them, call after call.
opportunity routing
the same criteria that qualify an opportunity decide where it is routed.
routing is not an afterthought bolted onto the handoff. it runs off the same qualification data, so an opportunity lands with the right team, market, or pipeline stage instead of a shared inbox someone has to sort by hand.
-
by market or territory
multi-location and multi-market operators get each opportunity routed to the branch, region, or rep that actually covers it.
-
by team or rep
routing rules are configured against your org structure and workload, not a single queue everyone works out of order.
-
by pipeline stage
an opportunity enters your crm at the stage that matches what the call actually surfaced, not always the same "new" stage.
-
by follow-up path
no-shows, callbacks, and not-now responses route into a re-nurture workflow instead of falling off the list unnoticed.
how it moves
the call ends. the record is scored, routed, and written into your crm before anyone has to chase it.
call ends ai summary + score checked against your criteria routed to the right queue written into your crm
every opportunity arrives as a structured record: call notes, source, status, the qualification context it was scored against, and the next action.

an opportunity that misses the criteria does not count. it gets replaced.
if a record reaches your crm marked qualified and it does not actually meet the criteria you agreed to, it is replaced. every opportunity is delivered with the notes, status, source, and next step attached, so there is nothing to take on faith. the first 30 days of a lane are a live calibration window, tuning the qualification criteria and routing rules against how your market actually responds.
omnikom does not promise what your sales team must close. we guarantee the operating standards of the acquisition lane: data, outreach, qualification, delivery, reporting, replacement, and optimization.

set the bar for what reaches your crm before the first call.
walk through what "qualified" should mean for your business and how a lane would route each opportunity into your team.
no commitment. we will tell you honestly if this is not a fit.
