Win/Loss Analysis Framework

Win analysis:

• Why did we win? (Product fit, relationship, pricing, competitive advantage, rep execution)
• Buyer sentiment score (0–10)
• Next steps (expansion, renewal, reference request)

Loss analysis:

• Why did we lose? (Competitive threat, budget, product gap, pricing, buyer changed roles)
• Lost to competitor? (Name competitor)
• Could we have won? (Yes/Maybe/No + justification)
• Re-engage timeline (immediate, 6 months, never)

Patterns to track:

• Win rate by segment (Enterprise vs. Mid-Market)
• Win rate by rep
• Primary win reasons (top 3)
• Primary loss reasons (top 3)
• Competitive win/loss patterns
