Decision card screener

Pre-call tiering for coaches who can’t waste calendar slots.

Prospects answer your tailored screener first. Briefcue scores fit and readiness, then sends a 30-second Decision card so every call starts with context.

Buying signal

Has invested ~$4k in an ops hire + a course. Spent willingly when he believed it'd work.

Opening move

How many deals did you personally close last quarter — and what would happen if you didn't?

May resist letting go of the closer role.

The quiet cost of open calendars

A booking link tells you who wants time.
A decision card tells you who deserves it.

Bad-fit calls do not just cost an hour. They dilute your attention before the real buyer shows up. Briefcue makes pre-call tiering visible before the calendar opens.

Calendar link vs Briefcue

Calendar-first

Everyone gets the same path. You discover fit, budget, urgency, and risk live on the call.

Briefcue-first

Each lead arrives as A/B/C/D with the real signal, the risk, and the opener to use if you take the call.

How it works

I

Tailor the screener

Tune questions, scoring weights, and tier criteria to match how you actually decide.

II

Qualify before booking

Share the screener before your calendar. Prospects answer a focused form first.

III

Read the decision card

Get tier, signal, verdict, risk, and the exact opener to use if you take the call.
