Set fair, achievable, stretching quotas. Inputs: 1. Company revenue goal. 2. Number of reps. 3. Historical attainment (what % hit quota). 4. Market capacity (total addressable market, saturation). 5. Sales cycle length. 6. Average deal size. Bottom-up calculation: Company needs $10M revenue. Reps: 10. Individual quota: $1M each (100% coverage). Add buffer for 80% attainment: $1M ÷ 0.8 = $1.25M quota per rep. Ramping: new reps 0% month 1-2, 50% month 3, 75% month 4, 100% month 5+. Segmentation: enterprise reps higher quotas ($2M), SMB reps lower ($750k). Validation: sanity check with outside data (SaaS benchmarks show similar company size has $1-1.5M quotas). Adjustments: ramp-up time, territory quality, available leads. Review quarterly: if <60% hitting quota, quotas too high. If >90% hitting, quotas too low. Sweet spot: 60-70% attainment rate. Communicate transparently: show math, rationale, FAQ doc.

Options (Post-observation debrief): Coach shares data. They brainstorm multiple strategies to achieve the goal. ('What could you do differently? What have you tried before?'). 4. Way Forward (Action Plan): Teacher chooses one strategy to implement. Coach and teacher define what success looks like and schedule the next observation. This non-evaluative, teacher-centered approach fosters trust and growth.

Build compelling ROI calculator for prospects. Inputs from prospect: 1. Current process metrics (time spent, volume, error rate). 2. Team size and labor costs. 3. Current tool costs. Calculations: 1. Time saved per transaction. 2. Annual time savings (volume × time saved). 3. Labor cost savings (hours × hourly rate). 4. Error reduction value. 5. Total annual benefit. Subtract your solution cost. Show payback period (solution cost ÷ monthly benefit). Example output: $50k solution, $15k/month benefit = 3.3 month payback, $130k first-year ROI. Make interactive (spreadsheet or web app). Use conservative estimates. Provide sources for assumptions. Include in proposals. Industry benchmarks add credibility.

Qualify inbound leads with BANT framework. Budget: 'Have you allocated budget for this initiative?' or 'What's your expected investment range?' Authority: 'Who else is involved in this decision?' Identify all decision makers and influencers. Need: 'What's driving this evaluation now?' 'What happens if you don't solve this?' Timeline: 'When do you need this implemented?' 'What's driving that timeline?' Scoring: Each element 0-2 points. 7-8: hot lead (immediate action). 5-6: warm lead (nurture). 0-4: unqualified (marketing nurture or disqualify). Sample questions: 'Walk me through your decision-making process.' 'What does success look like?' Disqualify respectfully if not a fit. Document in CRM. Pass qualified leads to AE within 5 minutes for best conversion.

Improve free trial conversion rates. Trial design: optimal length 14-30 days (long enough to see value, short enough to create urgency). Friction: minimal (credit card optional for PLG). Activation: define 'aha moment' (e.g., send first campaign, create first report). Drive to activation: Day 1: welcome email with quick-start guide. Day 2: in-app prompts to complete setup. Day 3: personal outreach from AE if high-value. Day 7: success check-in call. Day 10: case study email. Day 14: upgrade prompt with limited-time offer. Metrics: signup-to-activation rate (target 40%+), activation-to-paid rate (target 25-40%). Improve conversion: 1. Reduce time-to-value (better onboarding). 2. Demonstrate ROI during trial (analytics emails). 3. Offer incentives (20% off if paid before trial ends). 4. Human touch for enterprise (white-glove onboarding). 5. Remove friction from payment (one-click upgrade). Track where trial users drop off, optimize those moments.
