Stress-test this forecast

A committed number you have to defend at the end of the week.

Longforecastingpipelinereview
Review the forecast below and tell me where it breaks.

Check: coverage against target, how much depends on the largest two deals, how many deals need to close in the final fortnight, whether the stage-weighted total matches the committed number, and how this cohort compares to historical conversion by stage if that data is included.

Give a best case, a likely case and a bad case, each with the assumptions that produce it. Name the single deal whose slip would do most damage.

Making it yours

  • Paste your own material where the prompt asks for it. Everything above that line is instruction, not content.
  • Delete any rule that does not apply to you. A shorter prompt that fits beats a thorough one that does not.
  • If the answer comes back vague, add a line saying what you do not want. Constraints work better than encouragement.

Reports and forecasting. Turning a question about the business into a report, a query, or a number you can defend.
