For Sales Leaders

Forecast with receipts, not hope

Actioner turns the messy reality of emails, calls, and CRM activity into a weekly Forecast Brief—what will close, what won't, and why. You get a clean exceptions list and the evidence behind every number.

Forecast Brief Monday 8:00 AM

Exception: Close date slipped

"Legal won't review until next week" — email thread

Risk: Champion disengaging

3 missed meetings · sentiment trending down

Divergence: Rep vs AI

Rep: Commit · AI: Best-case (missing mutual plan)

Pipeline reviews become spreadsheet theater

You're accountable for the number—but the truth lives across calls, emails, and tribal knowledge. By the time you learn what changed, it's too late to save the quarter.

🎲

Forecast feels like guesswork

Stages and close dates shift quietly. You don't know what to believe until a deal slips—or dies.

🕵️‍♀️

You find out too late

Procurement pulled in, security raised, champion went dark—these signals show up days or weeks before they hit your forecast call.

🧑‍🏫

Coaching without evidence

Managers ask "what's happening?" Reps give stories. Without receipts, coaching turns into opinion and optimism.

🧹

CRM hygiene tax

RevOps nags, reps resist, and the CRM stays stale. You're still expected to run the business on it.

Know exactly where you stand—every Monday

Actioner combines CRM data with real customer interactions and produces a Forecast Brief with receipts. It highlights exceptions, risks, and confidence—so you can intervene early.
