Criza Pipeline Visibility (2025)
CRM-uri pline cu date stale, forecasts nesigure, deals stuck fără next action clar:
Probleme Pipeline Manual
- 📊 72% pipeline data e incompletă sau stale (Salesforce State of Sales)
- ⏰ 5-8 ore/săptămână AE pe CRM data entry (nu pe selling)
- ❌ 45% forecast accuracy mediu - predictability scăzută
- 🔮 Pipeline bloat: Deals vechi 90+ zile, nimeni nu curăță
- 🤷 70% deals nu au clear next step definit (stagnează)
Impact Business
- 💰 Revenue predictability scăzută = planning imposibil
- 📉 Deals slip din Q în Q pentru că nu sunt monitorizate
- 😤 Management frustration: "Nu știu ce se întâmplă în pipeline"
- ⚡ Late intervention: Deals at-risk identificate prea târziu
- 🎯 Resurse misallocate: Focus pe wrong deals (optimism bias)
