Possible added annual profit — a scenario range, not a guarantee
210 high-intent leads a year wait a median 31 hours. Leads answered within 4 hours converted at 16%; those answered after a day at 9%. This is a correlation, not proof.
Why this matters
If even part of that gap comes from speed, faster replies could win several extra clients a year at little cost.
Recommended action
“Run a controlled follow-up experiment for high-intent leads and measure whether faster response times improve conversion.”
