You Need to Pay Attention to Sales Conversion Rate, and Here’s Why

The number one goal for sales and marketing teams is pretty simple – generate more revenue. The best way to do this is to convert target accounts from the top of the funnel to closed-won more efficiently and effectively. If more marketing qualified accounts (MQAs) convert from opportunity to paying customer, your company makes more money. This is known as your sales conversion rate, and to recognize the value of it you need to understand how the sales funnel works.

Why Is This Important?

CRM software like Salesforce uses the sales funnel to track where prospects are in the buying process. It’s an upside-down pyramid that represents the entire process of selling a product – from prospect to closed-won. The sales funnel is an invaluable tool for evaluating metrics at every stage in the buyer’s journey and understanding the bottlenecks that are affecting your bottom line.

If your sales conversion rate improves, that means that a higher percentage of accounts are progressing through the funnel and converting to closed-won. Simple as that.
