Interactive RevOps framework for assessing Sales-Marketing alignment across four pillars (10 criteria each): Definitions & Qualification, SLAs & Handoff Processes, Communication & Collaboration, and Shared Metrics & Accountability. Uses a 0-5 rubric with normalized category scores (0-100), overall alignment score (0-100), equal-weight average, executive classification, gap analysis, and auto recommendations. Includes practical prompts for MQL/SQL/SAL consistency, ICP and qualification framework alignment, SLA adherence and feedback loops, meeting cadence, shared pipeline transparency, and joint KPI ownership. Export CSV for Excel/Sheets/Notion/PDF use.
The Problem This Solves
When Sales and Marketing operate with different definitions, handoff expectations, and KPIs, pipeline quality drops, follow-up slows, and revenue planning becomes unreliable.
Who It's For
RevOps leaders, Sales leaders, Marketing leaders, and GTM operators responsible for shared pipeline and revenue outcomes.
Use Cases
- Diagnose misalignment in definitions, SLA adherence, and KPI ownership
- Standardize MQL/SQL/SAL criteria and qualification frameworks
