With Einstein Forecasting, Pepper can get predictions about her sales team’s opportunities. A prediction graph shows her team’s past opportunities and forecasts about future performance. She can also see the top key performance indicators, including:

  • Einstein Prediction: Einstein’s forecast prediction for your sales team’s deals this month
  • Einstein Prediction to Quota Gap: The difference between Einstein’s prediction and your current sales quota
  • Closed to Quota Gap: The difference between your closed deals and current sales quota

Einstein Forecasting

Pepper can see even more detail on the forecasts page. List views display the Einstein prediction amount broken down to show the median predicted amount for each of her sales reps and sales teams (1). Einstein bases the predictions on all open opportunities with close dates by the end of the month.

Pepper can check the Einstein Prediction Details panel (2) to see more details related to her teams’ deals. They include the range of prediction values, a breakdown of open deals in different stages, and the top contributing factors to the Einstein prediction.

And that’s not all! She can also access some Einstein Forecasting information on the go. Using the Analytics app, she can see key performance metrics and the prediction graph on her mobile device.

Pepper’s thrilled and does a little dance. You smile between sneezes in happy agreement.

Conclusion

So now you’ve seen how artificial intelligence can optimize a sales team. You’ve seen how Sales Cloud Einstein, in particular, takes busywork and guesswork out of the sales process and replaces them with productivity and insights. AI will never replace the sales teams, but it can make them smarter at every step of the process.
