Lead value calculator
What is a meeting-ready lead worth to you?
Set your deal size and your own funnel rates. The calculator compounds them into one number: the most a lead can cost you before it stops paying for itself. Nothing here is a quote, and nothing here promises a volume.
Or what the whole project pays, if you set retention to one month.
One for project work. Your real average for retainers, not your best client.
A lead who replied, fits, and asked to talk. This slider models a volume; it does not promise one.
Your reply-to-calendar rate. Half is a normal starting point.
Ninety is typical with a reminder in place. Lower it if you don't send one.
Your close rate on a first call with someone who asked for it.
Month one delivers a quarter of a normal month and month two three quarters, because inboxes warm before they send. Judge it from month three.

Customer lifetime value times your compounded lead-to-close rate. Pay more than this per lead and you lose money on every one.
It models your funnel and nothing else. It does not know your market, your list, or whether the volume exists, and it will not pretend to. Two of the three rates are yours to move, and the slider that moves the answer most is the close rate on a held call.
Want to know if the volume exists in your market?
That is the question this page can't answer. We size a market before anyone signs, and if the numbers don't hold we say so on the call.
