Definition
CPL tracks what it costs to generate a lead form, call request or WhatsApp inquiry. It is the entry metric for lead-gen businesses - schools, clinics, real estate, B2B - where the lead still has to be qualified and closed by a human.
Why it matters
CPL only matters with lead quality attached. We manage cost-per-qualified-lead and cost-per-booking, not raw form fills.
