Do not rely on previous rules, model, and work with your current process and make decisions based on that. It is human nature to try and create formulas to rely on, but businesses are always changing and it is up to you to adapt.
Monitor your pipeline to make sure it aligns with your key performance indicators. You should always be on the look out for bottlenecks in your process and tracking the right performance indicators will expose them to you.
If generating more leads appears as a wasted effort, there are likely some inefficiencies in your sales process. Solid leads are always good for business but if leads increase and revenue do not be sure you know why.
Always look at the big picture, small moves now may pay off 2 years down the road. As a manager, you must have foresight. For example, studies show that SEO (search engine optimization) initiatives usually take at least 12 months to pay off fully.
Establish the true transit time of your sales pipeline. This means to know how long it takes on average for a leads to move through your sales funnel.
