Forecasts help us align year-end performance with goals. I’ve been using Forecast to predict inbound pipeline generation and other key marketing KPIs that I report on each month. In a recent meeting with my VP of Marketing, I used the graphs to tell a more compelling story about our 2025 planning and how we’ll finish the year from a marketing perspective. It’s helped us align our year-end performance with the targets and goals we set at the beginning of the year. Forecasts have been an incredibly useful tool, and we’re planning to leverage it more next year as we set new goals.”
