Inbound Conversion Benchmarks by Company Stage
Data from over one million inbound form submissions reveals patterns that challenge conventional wisdom. Early-stage and late-stage companies often outperform the middle. Vertical SaaS consistently beats horizontal positioning. And the median qualified-to-booked rate across B2B SaaS sits at 62%, not the 35% many teams assume is normal. If your team converts at 40% and considers that acceptable, you're leaving significant pipeline on the table.

The 30 Seconds That Decide Whether a Lead Ever Converts
The 30 Seconds That Decide Whether a Lead Ever Converts
A visitor lands on your demo page. They've read your case studies, compared you to competitors, and decided you're worth a conversation. They fill out the form, hit submit, and then... nothing happens. A confirmation message promises someone will reach out soon.
