Get your forecasting resources ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Commit Deal Essentials: Reps must report four details for commit deals: dollar amount, close date, economic buyer, and their engagement. If not engaged, share the plan to involve them. Three Forecast Methods: Use a top-down pipeline view, a bottoms-up deal analysis, and AI tools for better forecast accuracy. Combining these improves reliability. Quarterly Milestones: By month one, secure 50% of forecasted deals. Month two should see 60% closed, leading to 100% by month three. Prioritize Best Case Deals: Spend less time on commits with clear criteria. Focus on best-case deals and strategies to convert a few more into wins.

Right? And I'm not talking about like we're getting ready to come into a new year. We already know the sales capacity plan.

Home sales have been falling fast since interest rates rose last year. After a spree of house shopping and record-low mortgage rates, homeowners sit comfortably in 2023. They've got affordable monthly payments, a home that is (probably) bigger or better than their last one, and expect a potential recession sometime soon. So why would today's homeowners give up all that security to buy in a hazardous market? Mark Fleming from First American has been trying to uncover the answer. Mark serves as Chief Economist for First American, one of the United State's leading title companies. Mark's job is to predict and forecast the housing market, home sales, and buyer activity. And in 2023's topsy-turvy economy, this is becoming a little more difficult. Mark has built a model to help predict home sales, looking at key factors like household formation, affordability, current mortgage rates, demographics, and more. And he's got some interesting findings to share. The days of low interest rates and property upgrading may be over. Homeowners are now staying in their houses for twice as long, holding off on buying their next home until favorable conditions arise. But, this creates a “prisoner's dilemma” for home sellers and buyers. With most of the United State's potential property inventory sitting in the hands of those who refuse to sell, we're answering, “What happens next?” in this episode. In This Episode We Cover Home sales predictions and what happens when there is NO available inventory  Loose monetary policy and how low interest rates caused an affordability spike  Two critical factors that drive the market to soar or slump  Home turnover and why today's homeowner is “locked-in” and refusing to move The “prisoner's dilemma” that's caused the housing market to stagnate  A return to the “new normal” and what future homebuying could look like  And So Much More!

Do you know who the true magicians are in the business world? Salespeople. That's right, and that's all down to their forecasting abilities. Historically, salespeople have relied more on gut feeling and opinions instead of data when forecasting. But things don't work like that anymore, and, as a result, sales forecasting is broken. So how can we fix it? Why is it not working anymore? How can we fix mistakes and create better predictability? Udi Ledergor, the CMO of Gong.io, joins us today to answer the questions and fix the problem. Join us as we discuss: -Why is sales forecasting broken? -Less guessing, more data -Four steps to get the right data and make better predictions -Does swearing on sales calls really work?

Of course, everyone wants to hit their government contracting forecast every time. It's not easy, perhaps impossible. Government procurement activity has strong potential to develop twists and turns that produce surprises. In fact, the biggest surprise is when there is no surprise. In this episode of Myths of Selling to Government, we disclose the only solution we've found in our many years of selling to government that counters the unpredictability of government sales. Join host Rick Wimberly of Government Selling Solutions as he unveils the secret... (which, as it turns out, is not really a secret after all).

Creating a valuable and accurate sales forecast is dependent on your ability to anticipate the success of sales. So how does the founder and CEO of forma.ai Nabeil Alazzam motivate and drive his team to maintain momentum? Through sales incentives! Using sales incentives and data-driven forecasting, Nabeil encourages his salespeople to reach specific and measurable objectives. How Nabeil defines sales forecasting: It depends on whether the forecast is for a team leader or a representative. As a leader, it's taking data across the team and using it to aggregate results. On the rep level, accuracy is critical. If you're confident which accounts close, you can better visualize what else is needed to do to hit a target number. Common forecasting mistakes: Being overconfident with deals without a data-driven element to justify the belief. Instead, utilize checkpoints throughout the sales process to know if a prospect will move forward. Another common mistake is that a lack of nuanced checkpoints leads to overprioritizing a fast-cycle sales prospect. As a sales rep, use data to allocate time free of bias towards the accounts most likely to close (without taking the speed of the sales cycle into account.) Segmentation and forecasting go hand-in-hand. Use data when thinking about an audience cluster. A checklist sales reps have for different groups of people can and should look different depending on the best likely outcome for each group.  For managers, don't think of data points as averages across the board. Understand your different customer segments and establish guidelines within each audience as data points. Start data-driven forecasting: Forecasting is a crawl, walk, run approach. When running, you can automate the segmenting approach. In the crawl, it's simply acknowledging that people buy differently and may need different buying propositions. Think about the types of clients you serve and what success looks like with each of those groups, segmenting by sector, growth stage, and the number of employees. Think about the forecasting method and sales practice you should apply to each (and create data points based on these audiences.) How can incentives help our forecasting? Incentives drive behavior. And, ideally, better salespeople get paid more. If you can't set forecasting successfully, you can't allocate the proper incentives to the right salespeople. If you start to novice a prospecting segment is beginning to lag, you can be specific in your incentive to correct your trajectory. The goal should be to design incentive structures so the rep understands how much time they should allocate to that goal without detracting from the overall performance.

As a restaurant operator, you know that a modern point of sale (POS) solution generates tons of data. The question is, how do you use that data to materially improve restaurant operations? One of the best applications for POS data is as a tool to make more accurate restaurant sales forecasts. Data-based sales forecasts can give you a degree of precision that was previously out of reach, as well as set you up to better allocate staff shifts, improve your COGS control, and instill a culture of financial responsibility in your management team. The above benefits are earned from having access to properly contextualized POS data in a place that you consistently check. The ideal solution is not to try to manage your restaurant directly through your POS; but rather to integrate your POS data into a comprehensive system like a restaurant management software suite. RASI offers easy data integration of leading POS systems transferring your POS data into the same unified software you utilize for payroll, accounting, financial goal setting, and tracking.
