Frequently asked questions

### Questions, answered.

Explore the details. Open a question for the answer.

How should I navigate the Lead Source use-case library? +

Choose your business type, industry, marketing channel, or operating challenge. Each page connects a representative call journey with the tools and review questions relevant to that situation.

Can more than one use case apply to my business? +

Yes. An HVAC company running search ads may use both the HVAC and paid-search pages. One describes the business request; the other explains source attribution.

Are the use-case journeys reported customer case studies? +

No. They are illustrative workflows, not customer testimonials or measured results. They explain how a team can evaluate the product for a particular situation.

Where should an agency begin in the use-case library? +

Start with the agency solution and client-reporting workflow. Then explore the industry and channel pages that match the clients you manage.

Which use cases apply to buying and selling calls? +

Lead generation, pay-per-call networks, publishers, buyers, and call supply and demand cover commercial call operations. Those workflows go beyond measuring a business's own advertising.

Can a use-case page help me choose a first campaign to test? +

Use its example to define a source, intended receiving team, and meaningful next step. Keep the first test focused enough that the result is easy to inspect.

Do the use cases assume every incoming call is valuable? +

No. Review service fit, repeated inquiries, answer coverage, and actual outcomes. A total of calls does not show that every inquiry was useful or converted.

How are use cases connected with the feature library? +

Each detailed use case points to relevant tools, such as tracking numbers, schedules, or conversation review. Use those pages to examine the capability behind the example.

Can I use the library if my exact trade is not listed? +

Look for a similar receiving and follow-up process, then review the channel or challenge pages. The important connection is the way inquiries arrive and become useful work.

How should I evaluate a use case during early access? +

Compare the described workflow with your actual requirements and run a representative test. Include a missed or unsuitable inquiry so you can assess handling as well as attribution.

Does choosing a use case change Lead Source's US-only scope? +

No. Every calling and texting workflow remains limited to United States phone numbers, regardless of the industry or marketing channel described.

What can I find in the by business type use cases? +

Start with the way your team operates. These pages use that perspective to explain the source, receiving process, and outcomes worth reviewing.

What can I find in the by industry use cases? +

Follow the calls your customers actually make. These pages use that perspective to explain the source, receiving process, and outcomes worth reviewing.

What can I find in the by marketing channel use cases? +

Connect the promotion with the conversation. These pages use that perspective to explain the source, receiving process, and outcomes worth reviewing.

What can I find in the by business challenge use cases? +

Find a clearer way to handle the next step. These pages use that perspective to explain the source, receiving process, and outcomes worth reviewing.
