month-over-month lead growth

LVR = (this month − last month) ÷ last month × 100. It's a leading indicator of future revenue.

What is Lead Velocity Rate (LVR)?

Lead velocity rate (LVR) is the month-over-month percentage growth in your qualified-lead pipeline. Because leads precede revenue, LVR is a leading indicator of future growth.

LVR = (this month's leads − last month's) ÷ last month's × 100

How to read your result

  • LVR is a leading indicator — it predicts revenue before it lands.
  • Measure qualified leads, not raw signups, for signal.
  • Steady positive LVR is a healthier sign than a one-off spike.
  • Track it monthly to catch pipeline slowdowns early.

Frequently asked questions

Why is lead velocity rate useful?

Because leads convert to revenue later, LVR gives you an early, real-time read on where revenue is heading — well before it shows up in the numbers.
