Classifying a call as support or spam can complete its review without making it a sales inquiry.

Do not move an inquiry to another campaign merely because a later call scored higher.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a denominator is zero, show the metric as unavailable.

Compare confirmed results as well as qualification; an average score alone cannot explain campaign value.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If qualified outcomes are sent to Google Ads, map the intended stage, verify event delivery, and prevent duplicates.

A legitimate estimate inquiry may come before the caller knows the final price. Keep \u201cbudget not discussed\u201d separate from evidence that a mandatory requirement cannot be met.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Can calls be scored without recordings?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, using structured intake answers, reliable agent notes, and relevant CRM information. The limits are evidence quality and auditability. Record which facts were established and leave missing facts unresolved. If recordings or transcription are added, check the requirements that apply to their use.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Can multiple branches use one scorecard?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They can share core definitions while applying branch-specific service and geographic requirements. Compare scores only when the criteria mean the same thing. Keep temporary appointment capacity separate from whether the inquiry fits the business.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Can a score change after a callback?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, when follow-up provides new evidence. Keep the original assessment, updated result, reason for the change, and timestamps. This separates the quality of the original inquiry from what was established later.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Does an 8\/10 score mean an 80% chance of a sale?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No. It means the inquiry earned eight points under this rubric.
