Lead scoring

Ranking contacts by how likely they are to convert, usually as a single number.

Most scoring models blend fit (do they match the ICP) and intent (are they in market) into one number. That is convenient and it is the source of most of the confusion, because a perfect-fit account that has never done anything scores the same as a poor-fit account that is very active.

Splitting them is almost always better: fit is a filter, intent is a queue order.

What GTM does about it

Membership is binary and decided before a contact exists. Heat is a separate 1–5 score and it is the only thing the queue sorts on, so every contact in the list is already in-ICP by construction.
