Field guide / measurement

“Bad leads” is a complaint, not a usable classification. Turn feedback into a small set of consistent reasons.

## A practical sequence

- Agree on a short rejection list that sales can apply reliably. Distinguish unsuitable demand from failure to reach the person.

- Assign an owner and a working review schedule. Make the operating commitment realistic for the sales team.

- Return structured status and reason fields. Keep unnecessary personal details out of marketing events.

- Review disputed examples together and version the rule when it changes. Preserve older cohort definitions for comparisons.

### Take this into the brief

```text
Record ID / Accepted or rejected / Reason / Reviewed at / Owner / Rule version
```

## The decision to take away

Judge whether feedback changes decisions. A field nobody uses does not close the loop.
