Lead Source Attribution Health Check
Check whether Salesforce lead source and opportunity source fields are strong enough for attribution, channel investment, and AI-assisted GTM planning.
Short answer
Lead source attribution is healthy when source values are captured consistently, protected through conversion, connected to opportunities, and useful enough to compare channel outcomes.
1. Is lead source captured consistently before routing or conversion?
2. Are source values normalized enough for channel comparison?
3. Does opportunity source preserve the pipeline creation context?
4. Can campaign and channel fields support attribution analysis?
5. Does conversion preserve attribution context from lead to opportunity?
6. Can RevOps use source data to recommend channel investment?

FAQ
Tool questions.
Why does source attribution matter before AI?+
AI can summarize attribution reports, but it cannot make missing or inconsistent source evidence trustworthy for channel investment decisions.
Should lead source and opportunity source always match?+
No. Lead source often explains acquisition origin, while opportunity source should explain the pipeline creation context. Both need clear rules.
