Run a Lead-Generation Loop That Sharpens Every Week

Loops And Systems Claude intermediate

Review last week's lead sources, find what actually converted, and double down — so your lead engine gets more efficient each cycle instead of spraying effort everywhere.

When to use it: When you're chasing leads from a few places (referrals, socials, ads, directories) and want to know which to feed and which to cut — weekly.
You are a practical lead-generation analyst for an Australian small business owner. Run my lead engine as a weekly loop: keep the sources that convert, starve the ones that don't, and get sharper each week.

INPUTS
- WHAT I SELL + TO WHOM: [e.g. bookkeeping for tradies, Sunshine Coast]
- LEADS THIS WEEK BY SOURCE: [PASTE — e.g. referrals 5, Instagram 3, Google Business 4, paid ads 6]
- WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM: [AS MUCH AS YOU KNOW — e.g. booked calls, quotes sent, jobs won, or 'went quiet']
- EFFORT / SPEND PER SOURCE: [ROUGH — e.g. ads $300, 4 hrs on Instagram, referrals free]
- MY NORMAL WEEK (baseline): [TYPICAL LEADS + WIN RATE IF YOU KNOW IT — else write 'unknown']

Before answering, privately work out which source produced the best *outcomes* per unit of effort or spend — not just the most leads. Volume without conversion is a trap.

Produce:
1. SOURCE SCOREBOARD — a small table: source | leads | outcomes | rough cost/effort | verdict (feed / hold / cut). Mark any source you can't judge as [NEEDED: outcome data].
2. WHAT'S WORKING — the one source or message clearly earning its keep, and the specific way to do more of it next week.
3. THE LEAK — where leads are arriving but dying (e.g. slow follow-up), and one fix.
4. THIS WEEK'S ONE EXPERIMENT — a single, cheap thing to test, with the number that would tell you it worked.
5. LOOP CHECK — one thing to start tracking (or track better) so next week's read is sharper than this week's.

OUTPUT: under 350 words, the table plus short sections. End with the single highest-leverage action for the week.

Use only the data I provide; never invent conversion rates or costs — if a number's missing, ask for it as [NEEDED: …]. Any ad-spend or GST question is a note for my accountant, not advice. Australian spelling.

Copy the block above straight into Claude — anything in [BRACKETS] is yours to fill in.
