Sales Doesn’t Need More Dashboards. It Needs a Daily Briefing.

Written by Hive Perform | Apr 8, 2025 7:09:17 PM

Last week in Las Vegas, at Transact ETA 2025, the premier event for payments and fintech innovation, Microsoft’s Mike Pell stepped on stage with a rare kind of message.

In a week dominated by AI demos, automation breakthroughs, and product roadmaps, Pell didn’t unveil a new feature. He asked a question instead:

“What if we’re looking at the wrong things?”

And then, the line that stuck with us:

“Dashboards aren’t decisions. They’re inputs.”

It was a refreshingly honest moment that cut through the noise.

Because in today’s data-obsessed world, more numbers don’t help you lead better.

Clarity does.

Sales leaders are overwhelmed, not under-informed.

Every team has CRM dashboards, call summaries, deal stages, and win-loss data.

But despite all that, sales leaders still find themselves asking:

Which deals are slipping and why?
Who on my team needs support?
Can I actually trust this forecast?

There’s no shortage of metrics. But there is a shortage of focus.

What’s missing isn’t the data. It’s the signal.

“I don’t want more reporting. I want to know what to do on Monday.”

That’s how one VP of Sales at a 60-person B2B SaaS team put it.

They’re not looking for another dashboard, they’re looking for operating clarity.

Dashboards weren’t built for modern sales leadership.

If you're leading a 50-person sales team managing hundreds of open opportunities, you don't need more dashboards. You need decisions.

Dashboards track activity but they don’t surface what’s missing.

They show what happened but not where to intervene.

They offer data but not direction.

And that’s why senior sales leaders lose hours every week to pipeline reviews, rep syncs, and Slack follow-ups trying to piece together what should already be clear.

It’s not a visibility problem. It’s a prioritization problem.

That’s exactly what Perform Intelligence delivers.

Hive Perform doesn’t wait for you to check a dashboard.

It delivers a weekly report straight to your inbox that surfaces:

Which deals are gaining or losing momentum
Where key actions are missing across an active pipeline
Which reps need coaching based on how they’re executing, not just what they’ve closed
The top risks and opportunities shaping your forecast

It’s everything you need to run your pipeline before Monday’s first meeting.

From data to decision: that’s the shift.

This isn’t another dashboard. It’s your sales operating system in motion.

Designed for sales leaders who don’t want to spend time guessing.

Built to help teams move faster, coach smarter, and forecast with confidence.

Because visibility isn’t enough anymore.

What matters is knowing where to act and doing it in time.
