Questions & answers

These answers are written to be useful to practice leaders and easy for search and answer systems to interpret in context.
How does Dentist Orbit define a qualified lead?
The definition is documented for each engagement and may include source, service area, treatment interest, contact validity, duplication rules, exclusions, and non-clinical qualification criteria.
Can revenue attribution always be complete?
No. Attribution quality depends on connected sources, call and form tracking, CRM adoption, appointment outcomes, system integrations, identity matching, and the practice providing permitted feedback.
