1. A method of classifying a survey response, comprising:
- gathering survey data reflecting at least one response to a survey query, said survey data including an identifier related to an entity that provided the response;
generating a lead file containing information identifying the entity that provided the response;
generating a qualification value indicative of an attribute by statistically correlating the response with the attribute;
reading the qualification value; and
routing the lead file based on the qualification value.

Abstract
A system, method, and computer-readable medium for processing and qualifying multiple data sets supplied by one or more information sources. In certain illustrative embodiments, the invention can be advantageously employed to qualify or classify survey data and, more particularly, generate and categorize leads according to one or more attributes of interest to the data gatherer, such as time sensitiveness. In still other embodiments, a system automatically generates qualified lead profiles based upon responses to an electronic survey.

14. A system for classifying a survey response comprising:
-
a lead engine to receive and process data reflecting at least one response to a survey and to selectively forward a lead file based upon a qualification value associated with the lead file;
a qualification module to statistically correlate the response with one or more attributes and generate the qualification value based on that correlation; and
a plurality of recipients to selectively receive the lead file based on the qualification value. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)
