Scoring criteria:Hot — Senior digital or IT title (Director and above) at a state government, large municipality (500k+), or qualifying public-sector agency, with meaningful engagement (3+ page views or content conversion).
Warm — Public-sector or state-government entity at any title with a conversion, OR senior digital title at any organization with 3+ page views and a conversion.
Cold — Baseline activity that doesn't yet signal a target buyer.
Job Seeker and Spam are applied only when form content makes the signal unambiguous.
Strong public-sector fit: Michigan Supreme Court is a state-level judicial organization with multi-region digital footprint, adjacent to the executive-branch state agencies that anchor the campaign.
Senior operational title — Region V Administrator runs a defined slice of court operations, the type of role often involved in digital and governance discussions.
Personal Gmail address used on the form rather than a .gov email, which limits enrichment depth and warrants quick qualification.
Inbound originated from LinkedIn, consistent with the campaign's primary paid and organic channel.
Single-page session prior to conversion — the contact-form intent is the primary signal; engagement breadth is light.
Right ecosystem: New York State court system is a large public-sector digital footprint with the kind of multi-site governance challenges the campaign speaks to.
Engagement is at the threshold: a single page view from an Act-On email click, no form fill, no enriched profile.
Worth keeping in nurture — a .gov email and state-court affiliation make this a contact to watch in subsequent reports if engagement deepens.
Outsourcing-company domain, no public-sector signal, no title — outside the primary target buyer profile.
Decent engagement (4 page views with conversion), but contact-form submissions from outsourcing/services firms often reflect business-development outreach rather than buyer intent.
Worth reviewing the form-message content in Act-On to confirm whether this is a genuine inquiry.
Flagged as job seeker: Senior Drupal Developer at a peer Drupal agency contacting Lullabot via the contact form is the classic pattern for a developer outreach or job inquiry, not a buyer.
Flagged as spam: "John Doe" at "Example Company" with john.doe@example.com is placeholder data — either a test entry or an automated form-fill bot.

Monthly Budget Pacing
Combined daily cap: $40/day (LinkedIn $25/day + Google $15/day). May MTD spend: $450.35 through May 14. At the current pace, projected May total is approximately $965, sitting within the $1,500–$2,000/month combined ad-spend baseline. The LB-011 Digital Modernization Playbook LinkedIn campaign ($1,000/month) has not yet launched — that budget will activate once the ebook publishing path is confirmed.

The Google Branded Search campaign delivered the expected pattern for a branded-intent placement — high CTR (24.3%) on tight impression volume, with traffic landing on the site for further qualification rather than triggering an immediate conversion event. The LinkedIn State Website Governance campaign generated one lead-gen submission this week (matching prior-week volume) at a $129 CPA on $129 spend. Week-over-week LinkedIn CTR softened from 0.92% to 0.45%, which is consistent with the campaign-fatigue observations noted earlier this spring — worth monitoring as the LB-011 ebook-promotion campaign comes online to refresh the creative mix.
Email
No email campaigns were sent during this period. The most recent send was the May Newsletter (LB-NL526) on May 5, just before this window. The next scheduled send is the June Newsletter (LB-NL626) later this month.
Note: Detailed performance metrics for the May 5 send are not included here because they fall in the prior reporting period and the live API connection returned an authentication error at report time. Full email metrics will resume next week.
