Marketing and Sales: Same Funnel, Shared Responsibility

Marketing and Sales: Same Funnel, Shared Responsibility


Marketing brings the leads.
Sales turns them into customers.
But neither wins alone.

The real engine is the feedback loop.

Lead gen isn’t just about volume — it’s about quality, intent, and timing.

And the only way to know if a lead is working?



🔁 Feedback from sales:


  • Did they book a call?
  • Were they the right person?
  • Did the message resonate?
  • Did they convert or ghost?


Every insight helps us improve the hook, the targeting, the offer.

Marketing owns the why now.
Sales owns the why us.
Together, we own the outcome.

Want better performance? Start by tightening the feedback loop.
