Once you know what your coaching processes look like, we need a way to configure Truly to detect when these key events are happening.

What Data Points Can I Use For Detection?

Across All Activities/Deals

Being Salesforce-Native, our analytics platform can cross-reference any object or field in Salesforce. This means that you can segment coaching rules not just by the activity itself, but also things like the related "Account Tier" or "Opportunity Size".

The default objects supported out of the box are:

Activity

Lead

Account

Contact

Opportunity

TrulyTranscription

Within Call/Meeting Transcripts

Within calls, Truly can zero in on the following signals:

Signal

Example

Keywords

Salesforce

Keyword Variations

Salesforce, Sales force

Phrasing Variations

"This call may be monitored or recorded"

"My boss may monitor this call, and I am recording it"

"Are you okay if I record this call? Great, also it might be monitored by our training team as an FYI."

Phrase Timing

Was Agenda set at the beginning of the call?

Did the rep attempt to schedule a follow-up at the end of the current call?

Within Activities

Truly automatically calculates a variety of activity level metrics by modeling the back and forth behavior across all forms of engagement (calls, texts, emails, meetings). You define what a 'high quality' interaction is between your reps/customers and Truly will do the rest. You can find a full list of computed metrics here.

Within Deals:

Truly automatically calculates a variety of opportunity level metrics by overlaying Activity and Opportunity History data. These can be used to further add context to activity or deal coaching (full list of metrics here)

Example1: Reps Spending Too Much Time On 'Stuck' Deal

For this, you could use the 'Talktime in stage' metric (which sums up all rep talking in the current stage) to determine if the rep is spending far too much time on this deal without seeing any progress.

Example2: Rep Needs To Chase More OR Abandon Pursuit

Below, we have two deals alongside two computed Truly metrics - this illustrates how a state metric (deal stage), an event metric (what happened), and an activity metric (what the rep has done) make it easy to prescribe an automated next step

Touches Since Last Engagement
