Leads were sitting in a shared inbox for hours before anyone replied, and by then many had already gone to a competitor. Prowess built an automated triage and response pipeline that qualifies and routes leads the moment they arrive.
The Challenge
Leads sat unanswered in a shared inbox for hours, and by the time someone replied, many had already gone to a competitor.
“By the time we replied to a lead, they had usually already booked a call with someone else.”
The Requirement
The automation needed to do three things well:
1. Pick up a new lead the moment it arrives, any time of day.
2. Score and qualify it automatically using a few simple rules.
3. Route it to the right person and log everything in the CRM without manual data entry.
The Approach
Prowess mapped the existing lead flow — where leads came in, how they were qualified, and who should see what. Rather than a heavy CRM add-on, we built a lightweight automation layer that plugs into the existing inbox and CRM.
What We Built
The automation covers three pieces:
01 / Instant Reply: A first response sent the moment a lead comes in, before anyone opens their inbox.
02 / Auto-Scoring: Simple rules that qualify each lead and flag the ones that need a person right away.
03 / CRM Routing: Every lead lands with the right person automatically, fully logged, with no manual entry.
The Outcome
New leads are automatically scored, get an instant first reply, and are routed to the right person without anyone having to check an inbox.
