Answer Tough Questions
How does my pipeline look?
The Sales Pipeline Dashboard is designed to break down the key metrics of the sales pipeline. From here, sales reps can see which stage is currently most successful, and which are slowing the cycle and may need specific attention.
What are my top opportunities?
The Opportunity dashboard shows that open deals can act as a kind of to-do list. It also adds a bit of motivation: if all of those open deals can close, imagine what the company will generate in revenue.
Am I doing enough to achieve my quota?
A dashboard that lays out the current performance of your sales team can be highly motivating for your reps. A sales leaderboard will depict how each of your reps rank in terms of the metrics determined to be most impactful for your particular business.
