Stamp four fields onto the lead record at first touch — source, landing page, timestamp and a declared “how did you hear about us” answer — then join them to closed-won amounts in your CRM. Analytics alone will not do it: across 56 AI landings in our own server logs — ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Copilot and Gemini, 22 Aug to 5 Sep 2026 — the referrer header alone missed 31 of them, 55%.
What this covers
- Why do my ChatGPT referrals show up as direct traffic?
- Crediting AI search referrals to closed-won revenue
- MAKE MORE SALES.
- Why a channel report can never credit pipeline on its own
- The four-field stamp: what has to reach your CRM
- How do I stamp first touch without overwriting it later?
This is a technical summary. The full guide — with the data, tables and worked examples — is on our site: *How to Attribute Pipeline to AI Search Referrals*.
