With Scratchpad, all of this is possible - AND MORE!

✅ You can effortlessly manage your team's sales opportunities each quarter with the help of Automations. Notifications are seamlessly delivered when there are changes in stages, close dates, or decreased amounts, allowing you to stay up-to-date without any manual effort.

✅ During your weekly 1:1 meetings with your managers, you can have access to a forecasting Grid View that spotlights any changes made to the opportunities. The opportunities can be Grouped by forecast category, such as best case, pipeline, or commit, for the current quarter.

✅ At the end of the quarter, your focus can shift to evaluating things like decision makers, next steps, estimated rep ARR, and the paper process or methodology used.

This can all be done with ease, freeing up time to focus on strategic initiatives and driving growth for your organization
