Before Starting

Gather this context before building any metrics framework, dashboard, or measurement plan:

• What is the current sales motion? PLG, sales-led, agent-led, or hybrid.
• What is the pricing model? Per-seat, usage-based, outcome-based, or hybrid.
• What is the current ARR or MRR? Stage determines which benchmarks apply.
• What CRM and data tools are in use? HubSpot, Salesforce, Attio, or spreadsheets.
• What analytics/BI tools are available? Metabase, Looker, Mode, or Google Sheets.
• How many reps or GTM team members exist? Solo founder vs. team of 50 require different metric depth.
• What does the buyer journey look like today? Touches, average sales cycle, primary channels.
• Is there a weekly review cadence in place? If yes, what gets reviewed and by whom.
