What is the Fix the Forecast course about?
Every week, the forecast process breaks down: reps don’t update CRMs until Thursday, managers override deals without documentation, and leadership questions the number on Friday morning. This creates a cycle of rework, misalignment, and last-minute pressure that distracts from real pipeline health. The cost isn’t just time, it’s trust. The fix isn’t better willpower. It’s a documented, repeatable system for forecast integrity.
