  OK, maybe not zero prep, but Align does dramatically reduce the number of times you’re prepping on a Sunday night trying to remember all the promises you made to customers last week Align’s role in inspection -- Clari customers Align integrates directly into Clari’s Insights Panel on the Opportunity Inspector. Assuming your Org has enabled MAP Status in CRM, you can filter your opportunities or build out dashboards by “On Track”, “Late” or “No MAP”.This will help managers spot risk faster, especially on critical deals. Use MAP Summary to summarize key events or just jump over to the full plan from Clari.Best practice is to create a dashboard widget or Saved View for your key dealsHey Clari -- Which of my $50K+ commit deals for this quarter are missing a MAP? Align’s role in inspection -- Align standalone If you don’t have Clari, you can still incorporate Align into your deal inspection calls.All the details are in one place so your manager can review on their own and then you can spe

HI @Ariadne Smith,Good day. Currently, we categorize pipeline to “closed”, “Forecast call”, “Upside”,and “Value Unassigned”. During the forecast call with sales leaders, we go through the category one by one by clicking the “Closed”, “Forecast call”, “Upside” on the left panel to talk through the deals with each category, but there is no “Value unassigned” category on the left panel. so we click “Pipeline Coverage” to review “Value Unassigned” Category. but it’s a aggregated view of all categories. it’s difficult to scan through all the “Value unassigned” deals.Ask Option 1: Add filter “Value Unassigned” to panel on the left Option 2: Add filter “Value Unassigned” to on the top of pipeline coverage. Please see the screenshot pasted below.  Thank you very much!Bobby

How have you set up salesforce to allow for one account owner but multiple opportunities?  For example, we have a customer success manager who has a handful of account execs working on their accounts.  We are having issues keeping the heirarchy and also giving the correct permissions in salesforce. 

Understanding stage conversion is one of the biggest unlocks in running revenue and stopping revenue leak. It's one of the few moments where marketing, enablement, revenue excellence, product and sales leadership all converge. Are deals choking from because of product-market fit or pricing? Do specific reps have a skills deficit? Where is your leak? 

Kevin Knieriem, CRO of Clari, walks through the steps to creating a successful, scalable 13 week revenue cadence. WIN EVERY REVENUE MOMENT. Charge is a virtual event filled with thought leadership and practical advice for revenue pros who want to turn obstacles into opportunities – regardless of market conditions. 

In the Quarterly Retro, the CRO, Business Ops team and Revenue Ops team use actuals to optimize the financial model and adjust the revenue strategy accordingly.In highly dynamic environments, assumptions can change fast, so you need to keep your hand on the pulse. 

Al is getting better, but we still need an accountable human to make a final call and provide insights to what the numbers mean for business. The CRO Call needs to balance predictive analytics against external macro and value judgements on rolled up forecasts to come up with a single number that the rest of the organization can rely on for everything from building up inventory to investing in marketing to making headcount decisions.  

New Logo ForecastSenior leadership has the scope to look down at individual deals and up at the broader landscape. Depending on the size of your org, there could be multiple layers of management and roll ups. Leadership should meet on Mondays to game-plan out the week and on Fridays to update your forecasts. 

We switched from Outreach to Groove 18 months ago.Here were the main problems we were having:👻 The "shadow CRM"Outreach and other sales engagement solutions manage contact data outside of CRM platforms. This effectively creates a secondary CRM, which causes major compliance issues with the GDPR regulations of the world. It also creates major data sync issues between Outreach and CRM. Only about 60 to 70% of our activity data ever made its way back into CRM, so we had an incomplete sense of what people were doing and what was working. Ultimately, we couldn’t easily A/B test our outbound messaging, which was challenging and frustrating for our team.💔 Incomplete analyticsBecause of the activity and contact sync errors, I couldn't do any meaningful analysis on the revenue outcomes our team was driving. Yes, there are analytics built into Outreach, but most of the success criteria there have to do with call dispositions or meetings booked. That's useful, but ultimately is not what I am ac

Building a legendary revenue career depends on your ability to bring new ideas that shape how others think about your business.To do this, you have to go from reactive to proactive. For example:Reactive: Waiting to be told to chase down a report that answers a question someone else is asking.Proactive: Guiding the conversation by asking (and answering) the right questions that challenge and guide your company’s strategy.Even more simply:Reactive: Let me get that for youProactive: Let me tell you what we should be askingWhen I think about rising stars at Clari, these are people who have the courage to take big swings on new ideas.I’m aware, it’s risky. But playing it safe rarely leads to remarkable results. Instead, bring new ideas that shape your company’s strategy and how executives think.Here’s how to put today’s advice into practice:1. Where are you currently being reactive?2. Where are there more opportunities to be proactive?Think it through, identify where you can add value, then

We have a manager who is responsible for two segments, which we have split out in Clari for forecasting purposes.  He is able to switch between the two users in the Forecast module.  However, when he goes to the Opportunities module, there is no way for him to switch between the two users.  Could you add the same multiple user functionality available in the Forecast module to the Opportunities module?  Thank you!   

Hi there! Is there a way for a Clari admin to login as (impersonate a user)?  I would like to be able to log in as one of my AE managers and set up some personal dashboards and troubleshoot but am not sure if this is entirely possible. 

Clari supports both the Salesforce Role Hierarchy and Territory Management. In fact, Clari relies on your Role Hierarchy or Territory Management in Salesforce to ensure that each user sees what they expect to see when they log into their Clari account. The Role Hierarchy is the standard hierarchy in Salesforce, while the Territory Management has to be enabled in Salesforce  There are benefits and drawbacks to the Role Hierarchy and Territory Management. I’m not an expert, but I can certainly speak to some of them as they relate to Clari. In this topic, I’m going to focus on how you can address a specific challenge as it relates to the Role Hierarchy. Role Hierarchy: Benefits and Drawbacks The Role Hierarchy allows you to be extremely straightforward in that each opportunity is owned by one rep. It’s really easy for reps to run queries for the opportunities that they own, and it’s easy for managers to run queries for the opportunities that their reps own.All users are assigned to one Ro

Hello, I have a suggestion for how we can view the Adjustments when we adjust the numbers for our reps.  I like how the reps forecasts automatically add up and so that I can see the total that my team is calling, but i think it would be really useful if it would show both numbers side by side when I do an adjustment.  this would allow me to see what they are calling to me side by side with how I am adjusting that up or down. Thanks!
