For practical diagnosis, monitor your notification setup to confirm that alerts are being received as intended and test using sample leads. Failure to respond quickly to new leads may point to a breakdown in your alert workflow or landing page handoff. Lead response speed can affect your campaign’s cost per lead (CPL) and overall conversion rates, so ensuring flawless delivery and visibility of incoming leads is essential.
