Confidence 84/100B2B SaaS · $5M–$10M ARR · EMEADemo benchmark data

This is an illustrative report for a fictional mid-market B2B SaaS company, shown so you can see exactly what you receive after completing the assessment. Demand generation is producing enough raw volume, but conversion from attended meeting to opportunity and from proposal to closed won is behind the cohort median, so a large share of created pipeline never converts. Unit economics are workable — gross margin and retention sit near the cohort median — while CAC payback is longer than most peers at this stage. The fastest available gain is qualification discipline before a meeting is booked, followed by a tighter proposal and follow-up process. Every figure below is calculated from the sample inputs using the same engine applied to real submissions.

Biggest constraint: Proposal → won; 12.7pp below the cohort median
Strongest area: Unit economics; Scored on 3 of 5 inputs; weight reallocated because LTV : CAC ratio, CAC payback period are missing.
Revenue at stake: $167,040; Per reporting period, from fixing the top leak alone

Biggest pipeline leak

Proposal → won

12.7pp below median

Proposal → won converts at 29.3% against a benchmark median of 42.0%. Lifting only this stage to the median, with every other rate unchanged, adds 5.22 deals per reporting period.

Improving this stage to the cohort median could produce approximately 53 additional attended meetings, 32 opportunities and 5 customers per reporting period.

Modelled estimate

Each stage is re-run at the benchmark median while all other stages hold their reported rate; the largest resulting revenue gain identifies the bottleneck.

Top three priorities

1GTM Strategy & ICP
Tighten qualification before a meeting is booked
Problem
Only a minority of attended meetings become opportunities, so sales time is spent on prospects who were never a fit.
Evidence
121 attended meetings produced 74 opportunities in the reporting period, below the cohort median conversion.
Benchmark gap
Meeting → opportunity sits under the cohort median for this segment.
Recommended action
Apply a written qualification checklist at booking time, and require a named business problem plus a confirmed decision process before a meeting is accepted.
Expected impact
Likely to increase opportunity quality and reduce time spent on unqualified meetings.
Timeframe
30 days
2Sales Enablement
Rebuild the proposal and follow-up sequence
Problem
Proposals stall after they are sent, with no consistent follow-up cadence or mutual close plan.
Evidence
41 proposals produced 12 closed-won deals in the same period.
Benchmark gap
Proposal → won trails the cohort median.
Recommended action
Standardise a proposal template with pricing rationale, and attach a mutual action plan with dated next steps and a scheduled review call.
Expected impact
Likely to shorten late-stage cycle time and lift close rate on live proposals.
Timeframe
60 days
3Demand Generation
Shorten CAC payback with channel reallocation
Problem
Acquisition cost recovers slowly relative to peers, which constrains how fast new spend can be added.
Evidence
CAC of $21,400 against an average contract value of $32,000.
Benchmark gap
CAC payback is longer than the cohort median.
Recommended action
Report pipeline and closed-won by channel monthly, then shift budget from the highest-cost channel into the two with the shortest payback.
Expected impact
Likely to improve payback period and marginal efficiency of new spend.
Timeframe
90 days
