More deals from the leads you already have.
You already pay for inquiries. We build the response and follow-up system that keeps them moving, so your team spends more time in real sales conversations and less time chasing.
Built around your existing tools and the way your team sells.

Why speed matters
8×
higher reported conversion rate
First contact within 5 minutesversus5 minutes to 24 hours later
InsideSales analyzed more than 55 million sales activities involving 5.7 million inbound leads at over 400 companies. In its 2021 report, it found that reported conversion rates were about eight times higher when a representative attempted first contact within five minutes rather than waiting between five minutes and 24 hours.
InsideSales, Lead Response Study, 2021 · Research infographic · Observational vendor platform data. “Conversion” is the study’s reported measure; this is not a claim of eight times more closed sales, a result produced by Zero Leak, or a predicted result for your business.
Where leads slip
The gap starts after the lead arrives.
A business can pay to create demand and still lose momentum in the handoff. These three findings show where to look first.
02 / After hours
40%+
High-intent inquiries arrive outside the workday.
Over 40% of high-intent web inquiries in Blazeo’s service-business research arrived during evenings and weekends.
Blazeo, 2026 · Research across 573 service businesses; web inquiries only.
03 / Missed calls
69%
Most missed calls received no callback within 48 hours.
Quo analyzed 16.7 million missed calls logged by its customers over three months.
Quo, 2026 · Vendor customer data; a callback means an outbound call to the same number.
These are separate external studies, not Zero Leak results or a calculation of your lost sales. Your own inquiry and call records show the size of your gap.
The system
Every inquiry gets a next step.
We start with the handoff between marketing and sales. The system can expand once that part works reliably.
Capture
Bring inquiries from your active channels into one visible pipeline.
Respond
Start a timely conversation through the right channel, including outside office hours.
Follow up
Keep useful conversations alive according to interest and timing.
Measure
See response times, bookings, and where conversations stall.
73.3%
Respond where customers prefer to talk.
In a Meta-commissioned Kantar survey, 73.3% of consumers said they prefer messaging when communicating with a business. The right first reply should fit the channel and lead, with a clear handoff to your team.
Kantar for Meta, 2025 · 11,056 online adults across 22 markets. Messaging overall, not WhatsApp specifically; preference, not measured sales uplift.
What we actually build
A working sales handoff, built around your team.
We design the workflow, connect the relevant tools, test the edge cases, and make the pipeline visible. The exact channels and automations depend on how your business receives and closes inquiries.
01 / Intake
One place for new demand
Connect the forms, ads, calls, or message channels you use. Record source and arrival time, assign an owner, and put each inquiry in a stage your team can act on.
02 / First reply
Respond while intent is fresh
Set up timely, channel-appropriate acknowledgements and qualification questions, including after hours where useful. Route replies and exceptions to a person when the conversation needs one.
03 / Follow-up
Keep the next step moving
Trigger relevant reminders when a lead has not replied, is not ready yet, or needs to book. Stop or change the sequence when someone responds, books, opts out, or a team member takes over.
04 / Visibility
See what happens after capture
Track time to first reply, conversations, booked appointments, and stalled stages. Give the owner a clear view of what needs attention and where to improve the process.
We start with response and follow-up. Once that works, the same foundation can support reactivation, appointment reminders, and further sales automation.
The starting point
Find the leaks before you rebuild anything.
The Growth Plan maps your current lead flow, tests the response path, reviews how follow-up works, and prioritizes the fixes. You leave with a 90-day plan and a clearer view of what needs attention first. We use your own data to quantify the gaps that outside research cannot.
Findings are based on the access and data available during the review. Estimated value is identified as an estimate, never presented as booked revenue.

What if even a small share gets stuck?
Use your monthly inquiry volume and explore a possible share that receives a late reply or no clear next step. Even a modest process gap repeats every month. This is a scenario to investigate, not a measure of your actual lost sales.
