The #1 Metric for VPs of Sales
How Fast DoesYour Pipeline Move?
Find out which lever — leads, deal size, win rate, or cycle length — moves your revenue the most
Pipeline velocity measures how fast revenue moves through your sales pipeline, in dollars per day: (Number of Opportunities × Deal Value × Win Rate) ÷ Sales Cycle Length. This calculator computes yours, benchmarks it, and simulates which lever delivers the biggest gain.

About This Calculator
Pipeline velocity measures how fast revenue moves through your sales pipeline, expressed in dollars per day. The formula is: (Number of Opportunities x Deal Value x Win Rate) / Sales Cycle Length. It is the single most important metric for sales leaders because it captures all four levers of pipeline performance in one number. Most teams focus on the wrong lever — this calculator shows you exactly which one to pull. It compares your velocity against industry benchmarks from OpenView Partners SaaS data and the Winning by Design Revenue Architecture framework, then simulates a 25% improvement in each lever to reveal which change delivers the biggest revenue impact for your specific pipeline.
