Lead analytics turns guesswork into wins. Track where leads come from, how fast you respond, and what happens at each funnel stage. With Toolsey Analytics, Unified Lead Inbox, 2-Way Texting, and Lead Mapping, you see which channels convert, fix drop-offs, and route reps to what works—so more estimates turn into jobs.
What Is Lead Analytics (and Why It Matters)
Lead analytics = measuring the full journey from source → contact → appointment → estimate → win and improving every step.
Why it matters
- Targeting: Spend on channels that create booked appointments, not just clicks.
- Speed: Faster first touches mean higher booking rates.
- Personalization: Tailor offers by neighborhood, service, and season.
- Forecasting: Predict pipeline, staffing, and inventory with confidence.
The Lead Analytics Stack (Built Around Toolsey)
- Unified Lead Inbox: All sources (web, LSA, socials, phone/text) in one queue.
- Source & Campaign Tracking: UTM/route tags on forms, QR codes, and numbers.
- 2-Way Texting & Click-to-Call: Higher contact rate; conversations stay tied to the lead.
- Automations: First reply, reminders, and follow-ups measured by outcome.
- Calendar & Availability: Book on first contact; track show-ups vs. no-shows.
- Analytics Dashboards: Speed-to-first-touch, contact rate, booking rate, win rate, AOV, CAC, ROI.
- Lead Mapping: See where wins cluster; target those blocks again (mailers, canvassing, EDDM, door hangers).
Metrics That Actually Move Conversion
Acquisition
- Leads by Source/Offer (daily/weekly trend)
- Cost per Lead, Cost per Booked Appt, Cost per Win
- Lead Quality Index (contact + booking likelihood)
Speed & Engagement
- Speed-to-First-Touch (median/P90)
- Contact Rate (24 hrs)
- Booked-Appointment Rate & No-Show Rate
Sales Outcomes
- Lead→Estimate %, Estimate→Win %, Lead→Win %
- Average Ticket / Gross Margin by Source
- Cycle Time (lead to scheduled to completed)
Rule of thumb: if a metric can’t change a decision today (budget, staffing, script), don’t surface it on the main dashboard.
How Lead Analytics Lifts Conversion (Step-by-Step)
1) Fix first contact
Most drop-offs happen before the first conversation. Use Toolsey Auto-Replies (SMS + email) with two time windows and track response time. Coach reps below your 5-minute SLA.
2) Book on the first touch
From the lead record, call/text and book directly into Toolsey Calendar. Track booking rate by rep, source, and time of day.
3) Reduce no-shows
Enable reminder sequences (T-24h, T-2h) and measure no-show rate by channel. Test wording and timing.
4) Tighten estimates → wins
Attach photos, scoped line items, and send via Forms & E-Sign. Track turnaround time and follow-up touches per win.
5) Double down geographically
Use Lead Mapping to see win clusters. Re-invest in those blocks with EDDM/door knocking/jobsite radius, then watch the map light up again.

Dashboards to Set Up in Toolsey
- Speed & Contact – SLA timer, first-touch distribution, contact rate by hour.
- Bookings – by source/rep/day; no-shows and reasons.
- Wins & Revenue – Estimate→Win %, AOV, margin by source and service.
- Geo Performance – wins per 1,000 rooftops, map heat layer, route/ZIP rollups.
- Attribution – QR/URL/number per campaign; first-touch vs. last-touch.
Lead Scoring & Predictive Signals (Practical)
- Score on urgency (active leak), channel, time of day, geo, past engagement.
- Auto-route “high score” leads to your fastest closers; trigger a tighter follow-up cadence.
- Review score calibration monthly—compare predicted vs. actual win.
Common Pitfalls (and Fixes)
- Lots of leads, few bookings: first-touch too slow → add auto-reply + assign “speed desk” shift.
- Great bookings, poor wins: estimate follow-ups weak → add 48-hr check-ins + proof photos.
- Good wins, tiny AOV: upsell not offered → add template line items and post-estimate SMS.
- Data chaos: inconsistent sources/tags → lock required fields & standard UTM/route naming.
Implementation Checklist
- Standardize sources, UTM/route tags, and form fields
- Turn on auto-reply (SMS/email) with two time windows
- Set SLA: first touch < 5 minutes (live timers on)
- Create rep templates (first SMS, voicemail, 24-hr nudge)
- Enable reminders + ETA texts; track no-shows
- Build dashboards (Speed, Bookings, Wins, Geo, Attribution)
- Use Lead Mapping to plan geo campaigns (EDDM/canvassing)
- Review weekly: reallocate budget by Cost per Win
FAQs
Isn’t this just “more reports”?
No—this is reports that change behavior: budget shifts, staffing windows, scripts, and offers.
What if my data is messy?
Start now. Standardize source fields going forward; backfill top 3 sources over time.
How fast should we respond?
Aim for < 5 minutes. The first helpful reply usually books the appointment.
