This KPI shows the number and percentage of requests from your sales
leads turned into closed deals. Percentage of Requests Converted into Sales is
measured by the formula below:
Percentage of Requests Converted into Sales = Number of Sales/Number of
Requests
For example, if you have 50 of 100 requests from your customers turned
into real saless, Percentage of Requests Converted
into Sales is equal to 50% (50/100= 0.5 or 50%).
This KPI helps measure the performance of your sales representatives.
To calculate Number of Requests Converted into Sales please follow the
steps below:
- Add the custom workflow that would include the statuses associated with the request lifecycle. For example, to track the statuses of requests you can create the following six-state workflow: Scheduled – in Progress – Cancelled – Failed – Completed – Succeeded:
