Can this task be automated?
Lead qualification can be automated by comparing a described workflow with explicit fit criteria and recording the reasons for each decision. The system identifies repetitive work, integration access, process stability, and risk. Uncertainty belongs in a review queue rather than a confident rejection, and a human handoff must always remain available.
How does the workflow run?
01 / Trigger
A form, email, or chat handoff provides a contact method and an operational problem.
02 / Decision
Evaluate repeatability, volume evidence, process stability, tool access, and review needs. Use business criteria only, excluding sensitive personal characteristics.
03 / Action
Record fit reasons and missing facts. Route production-graphics work to an audit and less familiar operational work to founder review.
04 / Failure handling
Vague descriptions receive a clarification draft. A low score never automatically deletes an enquiry or blocks a requested human handoff.
Which tools and how much effort?
Make; ClickUp; Gmail drafts; approved FRONT DESK knowledge base.
Low–medium · 2–4 implementation days. Planning estimate for the constrained scope above, not a delivery commitment or measured average. Integration access and source quality can change the work.
When should a person keep this task?
Do not rank buyers on speculative revenue or manufacture urgency. Qualification should direct attention to a useful conversation.
What should the acceptance test prove?
Submit a proof workflow, a one-off design request, and an ambiguous logistics task. Confirm evidence-backed routing and a working human handoff.
How do you measure whether it is worth building?
Measure hands-on minutes for representative jobs before the pilot. Subtract review, exception handling, and maintenance time afterward. Multiply the per-job difference by actual monthly volume. Keep waiting time separate from labor time, and publish the sample size with any savings claim.
