|---|---|---|

Unexpected improvement
Validate source freshness, scope and account; segment; persona; stage; region; campaign before crediting the change. Require evidence beyond a single platform or status field.
Efficiency or readiness decline
Break the decline into account tier; persona; journey; campaign; sales feedback; protect contact inflation; duplicate accounts; long-cycle attribution; privacy; then choose a reversible response to change account focus, content, orchestration or handoff.
Conflicting signals
