Hypothetical question: It’s week 3 of your quarter. Do your marketing, sales, and enablement teams know where your deals typically fall out of the funnel? 🌪 Are they collaborating to prevent this leak in the future? 💧

As a CSM, I see this as a common question my customers are always asking. Especially the late-stage, commit deals. Being able to inspect those deals and then group by owner or any other field has unlocked important conversations internally.

Another neat ‘trick’ to isolate x stage/forecast category conversion rates is to ‘uncheck’ all other buckets. For example, I may have 35% Stage 2 opps converting to Stage 3, but when I uncheck all stages between Stage 2 and Closed Won, now I have a direct conversion analysis from Stage 2 → Won, which could be lower (e.g. 28%).
