On a Daily or weekly basis review inbound MQL, SQL data to be responsible to Marketing. Create an SLA for SQL leads so Marketing can report on the value they create.
Marketing is one of your customers, treat them that way, but expect that they understand that Sales is a customer of marketing. Breed mutal respect.
