Fill the Actual column from the CRM at the end of each cycle. Targets are a starting point — we tune them together.
| KPI (outcome) | Weekly target | Actual | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| New qualified leads added to CRM (ICP fit + need signal) | 5 | — | Builds real pipeline, not noise |
| Replies / positive conversations | 8 | — | Proves the outreach actually lands |
| Meetings / calls booked | 2 | — | The real conversion step |
| Proposals / quotes sent | 1 | — | Turns conversations into revenue |
| Upwork applications submitted (quality, ICP-fit) | 15 | — | "No ideal job" ≠ zero output |
| Deals advanced a stage in CRM | 3 | — | Pipeline must move, not sit |
Not every connection is a lead. Most connections never enter the CRM.
The filter: ICP fit + a need signal = lead. Everything before that is just warming.
Log real numbers each day, pulled from the CRM. This is what we review next Thursday.
