No. It is most useful when phone leads matter and knowing which marketing generated them can change budget, follow-up, or operational decisions.
Should calls be recorded?
Only when the business has a legitimate need and the workflow complies with applicable recording, consent, privacy, retention, and industry requirements.
What should be measured besides call volume?
Qualified leads, answer rate, missed calls, appointments, opportunities, sales, or another meaningful downstream outcome can add important context.
