Quick Start
Revenue Forecasting
python scripts/revenue_forecast_model.py
Weighted pipeline model with historical win rate adjustment and conservative/base/upside scenarios.
Churn & Retention Analysis
python scripts/churn_analyzer.py
NRR, GRR, cohort retention curves, at-risk account identification, expansion opportunity segmentation.
Diagnostic Questions
Ask these before any framework:
Revenue Health
- What's your NRR? If below 100%, everything else is a leaky bucket.
- What percentage of ARR comes from expansion vs. new logo?
- What's your GRR (retention floor without expansion)?
Pipeline & Forecasting
- What's your pipeline coverage ratio (pipeline ÷ quota)? Under 3x is a problem.
- Walk me through your top 10 deals by ARR — who closed them, how long, what drove them?
- What's your stage-by-stage conversion rate? Where do deals die?
Sales Team
- What % of your sales team hit quota last quarter?
- What's average ramp time before a new AE is quota-attaining?
- What's the sales cycle variance by segment? High variance = unpredictable forecasts.
Pricing
- How do customers articulate the value they get? What outcome do you deliver?
- When did you last raise prices? What happened to win rate?
- If fewer than 20% of prospects push back on price, you're underpriced.
