Finding an Alternative to the MQL with Andrew Nadeau
In this episode of RevOps Corner, our host Mallory Lee chats with Andrew Nadeau, founder of Align.ly, to explore different ways of qualifying leads other than the "dead" MQL.

The conversation highlights how companies can improve lead routing, the nuances of automating lead to account matching, and how AI can assist in these processes. Both agree that while MQLs serve a purpose, a refined approach leveraging Salesforce campaigns and intent signals can streamline revenue operations.
