Ask ten owners about speed to lead and you will get ten different answers. The common thread among the successful ones is that they treat it as a system, not a one time project.
Owners also stressed the human side. Technology handles the reminders and follow ups, but the relationship is still built on the mat and at the front desk.
The schools getting it right start with consistency. They pick a simple process, write it down, and make sure every staff member follows it the same way every week.
