Guest Booking Pipeline Schema

Record candidate identity, relevance thesis, source basis, public contact path, introducer, outreach permission, owner, priority, first contact, follow-up count, next date, response, decline or do-not-contact state, scheduling constraints, consent, guest brief, recording readiness, assets, release review, publication, thank-you, correction, and future relationship.

Use visible stages and explicit exit criteria. Separate editorial qualification from contact authority. Respect declines, channel rules, outreach frequency, time zones, accessibility, and data retention.

The pipeline exists to create better conversations, not to maximize outbound volume.
