Sales operations pipeline hygiene research
A repeatable review model for CRM stages, next actions, stale records, and sales-owner exceptions.
How the study was structured
assess records for stage evidence, next-action date, contactability, and owner assignment.
What the evidence shows
pipeline hygiene is useful when it surfaces decisions; changing stages without evidence only hides uncertainty.
Define allowed stage transitions, a stale-record queue, correction notes, and a weekly sales-owner review.
