Sales funnel audit
Find out exactly where your B2B sales pipeline is losing deals, from first contact to closed revenue.
Most B2B companies don't have a lead problem. They have a pipeline problem. Leads come in, get lost in the CRM, follow-up is inconsistent, and nobody can trace a deal from source to close. This 25-question audit diagnoses your sales infrastructure across 5 layers and shows you which leaks to fix first.

A sales funnel audit, condensed to 25 questions across 5 layers.
Most B2B companies losing deals don't have a lead volume problem, they have a conversion problem. This audit surfaces which layer is responsible, so you know where to dig first.
What teams ask before and after the audit
The Sales Funnel Audit focuses on what happens after a lead enters your pipeline: pipeline planning, CRM structure, follow-up sequences, call quality, and reporting. The Digital Acquisition Audit focuses on what happens before that: whether your channels are attributed, your phone calls are tracked, your website converts, your SEO targets commercial intent, and your trust signals are strong enough to convert skeptical buyers. They are designed to be used together: fix acquisition first, then ensure your sales infrastructure converts what acquisition generates.
For B2B companies in equipment, industrial, and professional services sectors, 0.5–2% lead-to-sale conversion is common before infrastructure improvements. After implementing structured lead management, including routing rules, response SLAs, qualification frameworks, and follow-up sequences, conversion rates of 2–5% are achievable with the same lead volume and the same sales team. A large equipment dealer group audited by Synapse Edge saw conversion improvement from 0.24% to 2.3% following full infrastructure implementation.
In most cases, no. The majority of sales funnel improvements are process and configuration changes to existing CRM systems. Companies using HubSpot, Salesforce, or Pipedrive typically have all the technical capability they need. The gaps are in how the system is configured and how consistently the process is followed. The most common exception is call tracking: companies relying solely on web forms often need a dedicated tool such as CallRail or WhatConverts to attribute phone leads to their source.
Response time improvements and CRM routing fixes show results within 2–4 weeks, measurable as an increase in contact rate and first-conversation quality. Follow-up sequence implementation typically shows impact within 60–90 days as leads that would previously have gone cold begin to convert. Full infrastructure improvements generally produce measurable pipeline improvement within one sales cycle, which is 90–180 days for most B2B companies with 3–6 month deal cycles.
The right qualification framework depends on deal complexity and sales cycle length. BANT (Budget, Authority, Need, Timeline) is well-suited for transactional B2B sales with cycles under 90 days. MEDDIC (Metrics, Economic Buyer, Decision Criteria, Decision Process, Identify Pain, Champion) is better suited for complex enterprise sales above $50K. For most mid-market B2B companies, a simplified custom framework covering budget, decision-maker access, timeline, and pain severity performs well without the overhead of a full MEDDIC implementation. The specific framework matters less than having one and applying it consistently.
