To score a fast tracked lead or not?

Our revamped scoring model consists of behavioral and demographic scoring, segmented by critical, important, influencing and negative attributes. Our behavioral model has an additional segment, qualifier, which could be considered "fast track" attributes. My question: should we score "fast track" attributes at the MQL/SQL score thresholds, or are the leads merely sent to sales? Or do you have other suggestions? Our behavioral scoring model is as follows:

Lead Scoring Model Criteria Score Frequency

Re: To score a fast tracked lead or not?

Hey Amber,

I'd meet with your inside sales manager or someone in sales that has a leadership role (and if they like marketing that helps) and discuss if those "fast track" leads really are good MQLs for them.

In my previous company, the sales team was very cooperative and we decided on certain criteria (mostly from events and some combinations in wbrs) that would make a lead a "hot lead". I had these leads auto +100 which made them MQLs and assigned out to the team.

It all depends on your scoring and buying models.
