When to use it, when not to

Use it

  • Use it when reps are organized by vertical (for example healthcare, financial services, retail) rather than by territory or size, and each vertical has its own rep pool.
  • Use it alongside lead-routing-006 or lead-routing-007 when the org splits by both geography/size AND vertical; chain the branches, vertical first or territory first depending on which dimension has fewer, cleaner pools.

Skip it

  • Do not use it if industry data on the associated company is largely unpopulated or unreliable. Add an enrichment step, or fall back to a self-reported form field, see Variants.
  • Do not use it for named/strategic accounts with a fixed owner regardless of vertical; exclude those first, see lead-routing-011.
