What are the steps?
Deal Risk Review Cadence (QA)
- 01
Pull the week's active deals from the CRM into a single review workspace
Aggregate pipeline data from the client's CRM, meeting transcripts, and email threads into one view so every deal is assessed against the same criteria.
- 02
Score each deal for risk using a 1-5 scale across momentum, stakeholder coverage, and data completeness
Momentum measures recent activity, stakeholder coverage checks if all decision-makers are mapped, and data completeness flags missing fields or stale records.
- 03
Flag deals with low momentum or missing stakeholder data for immediate attention
Deals with no activity in 14+ days or with unidentified economic buyers are prime candidates for intervention before they stall.
- 04
Cross-reference ecosystem signals for expansion or co-sell opportunities
Check partner overlap data to identify accounts where a warm introduction or co-sell motion could accelerate the deal.
- 05
Document the top three risks per flagged deal with a recommended action
For each risk, specify who owns the action and the expected timeline, so the review translates into concrete next steps.
- 06
Review the risk list with the client's revenue lead and agree on priorities
A 30-minute call ensures the agency's analysis aligns with the client's own view and that the highest-impact deals get the most attention.
- 07
Log the review outcomes and track follow-through in the next cycle
Maintain a running log of actions taken and their impact on deal movement to refine the review process over time.
