From my biased sales lens my first thought was: I wish all salespeople had a pipeline like this. But then again, I’d have less job security!
So here are a few questions to ponder:

- Is it exciting?
- How much do you discount the data? Why?
- How much time is your sales team wasting on futile follow up?
- Does it provide a false sense of security to the sales team?
- Is your pipeline report like ground hog day with the same opportunities in the same step of your milestone sales process?
