What's in this article?
Here’s the truth:
Even great reps miss the mark when they reach out too soon—or too late. Timing is everything, and most CRMs offer zero help.
Predictive AI gives sales teams two key advantages: knowing who to contact—and exactly when to make the move.
Why Timing and Targeting Are Hard to Get Right
Without predictive guidance, reps rely on:
- Task lists based on lead age
- Rigid cadences and playbooks
- Gut instinct or “who’s next in line”
This results in:
- Missed high-intent moments
- Wasted time on leads not ready to convert
- Inconsistent performance across the team
Predictive Scoring Solves Both Problems
ProPair’s model scores every lead using:
- RANK: Conversion probability
- MATCH: Best-fit rep
- SCORE: Urgency of follow-up, tied to recency, behavior, and timing
The SCORE value is what powers timing precision—helping reps act before the window closes.
What It Looks Like in Action
With predictive timing, reps see:
- Which leads need attention now
- Which can wait or go into nurture
- Which time of day they’re most likely to connect
- Which channel (call, email, SMS) works best
You go from “check-the-box” tasks to intent-driven prioritization.
The Results of Better Timing
Sales teams using ProPair for predictive timing report:
- +31% increase in demo-to-close rates
- Up to 70% fewer calls to reach the same outcomes
- Higher rep confidence and smoother customer journeys
- More reliable forecasting based on lead-level behavior
It’s not about doing more—it’s about reaching leads when they’re most likely to say yes.
