Dispositions

– Lead Dispositions

Lead dispositions are attached to the client/contact itself (primary phone number) and typically determine a lead is new, a live transfer, or a converted lead (tied to the first converted policy). CRM Vendors can dictate initial lead status, that is: Vendor settings determine what a “new” lead is labeled as when first created by the CRM. When a policy on a lead/contact is converted for the first time, the lead’s disposition is almost always changed to “Converted” and all info is saved. Therefore, any lead with a policy disposition of Application or better should be labeled “Converted.” Leads cannot be dispositioned after they are converted. They will always be converted from then on.
