SQL (Sales Qualified Lead)

An SQL is a lead that sales has vetted and accepted as a real opportunity worth actively pursuing.

The SQL is the moment a lead becomes a deal. The gap between MQL and SQL is where marketing and sales alignment lives — or breaks.

If your MQL-to-SQL conversion is low, the problem is usually lead quality or a fuzzy MQL definition, not sales effort.
