Reference & Evidence

Source: Author's synthetic assignment worksheet grounded in Virtanen, Parvinen, and Rollins (2015), Friend, Curasi, Boles, and Bellenger (2014), and Friend, Ranjan, and Johnson (2019). The fields are prompts; the example values are illustrative, not benchmarks or service levels.

Each line is a claim from the register this journal publishes against, resolved from the register at build time.

  • A Virtanen et al. classify leads as won, lost, or canceled, with canceled separate from a customer decision to purchase elsewhere Virtanen, Parvinen, and Rollins (2015), full-text receipt · V07-VPR-C2
  • A Their study combines salesperson interviews, CRM analysis, and executive discussion and does not provide a general close-rate benchmark or individual lead explanation Virtanen, Parvinen, and Rollins (2015), full-text receipt · V07-VPR-C3
  • A A buyer-side account is a distinct evidence layer from seller explanation, and the qualitative study is not a universal reason taxonomy Friend, Curasi, Boles, and Bellenger (2014), full-text receipt · V07-FCB-C2
  • A Friend, Ranjan, and Johnson describe failing fast as collecting prospect intent, interpreting it, and deciding whether to stop pursuing early Friend, Ranjan, and Johnson (2019), full-text receipt · V07-FRJ-C1
