A Conversation Qualified Lead (CQL) is a prospect who has engaged in a meaningful two-way dialogue on LinkedIn, demonstrating genuine interest in a B2B solution through direct messaging or LinkedIn messaging interactions. Unlike Marketing Qualified Leads (MQLs) that show passive interest through content downloads, a CQL has actively participated in conversation about their business challenges, making them warmer and more sales-ready. This designation prioritizes engagement quality over volume, allowing sales teams to focus on prospects with clear buying signals.
