Imagine the monthly sales performance meeting, for instance, where your organization collectively discusses projections like the number of leads generated, qualified, and converted, the number of deals won, lost, or stalled, the highest performing products, and the lowest performing territories. Zia Presentations is handy for recurring reviews like this which normally require you to collate cumulative data each time, as it saves you a substantial amount of time and effort.

Note:

Zia produces its monthly analyses on the first day of the subsequent month and releases them as notifications in the Zia Notification panel. Click here to learn how to access these statistics.

Behavioral analytics in Zia Presentation

Cohort analysis

Quadrant analysis

Notes:

1. The number of insights or KPI displayed is subject to the type of data available in your CRM.
   
2. With regards to the behavioral analytics, Zia selects the module based on your usage. In other words, if the activity is mostly around the Deals module, then Zia will display a behavioral study of the Deals module.
   

Advanced analytics in Zia Presentation

Apart from the insights and behavioural analytics charts, Zia also incorporates advanced analytics into the presentation, such as the Best Time Analytics and VoC Forecast charts. These features provide more in-depth understanding of customer interactions and future patterns, enhancing your presentations with valuable data that reinforces your storyline.

Best time to contact analytics

Zia presents significant charts for Best Time Analytics, such as optimal contact times and customer interaction trends. These charts are generated either from specific user data or from the entire organization's data if Zia is configured to make the decision. When a manager adds team members, the Best Time Analytics will automatically include the data of these team members without any additional setup required.

VoC Forecast charts

Zia decides which graphs to display and organizes them in a logical manner in Story Mode. For example, if Zia recommends graphs from the Deals module and discovers a relevant forecast, it seamlessly incorporates this forecast to maintain a smooth flow in the story. In cases where Zia believes you do not frequently utilize the Deals module and does not suggest any graphs from it, the forecast is instead added at the end.

The charts that you'll see for VoC forecast:

1. Open deals categorized by the intent in the form of a pie or donut chart.
2. Table for the deals lost based on the intent.
3. Tabular representation of the main keywords for analyzing a forecast.
