Qualify a Lead
Use the BANT framework to qualify the prospect systematically.
Step 1: Budget: Ask what budget range they are working with and how purchasing decisions are made in their organisation.
Step 2: Authority: Confirm whether you are speaking with the decision maker. If not, ask who is and whether they can be involved.
Step 3: Need: Understand the specific pain point. What problem are they trying to solve? What happens if it stays unsolved?
Step 4: Timeline: Ask when they are looking to make a decision and when they would need the solution running.
Output
After gathering responses, classify the lead and summarise your findings:
- Qualified: clear budget, authority confirmed, defined need, decision within 90 days
- Nurture: one or more gaps; recommend a follow-up in 30 days
- Disqualify: no budget, no authority, or no real need identified
