*Deal economics in Consumer Financial Services make this stage too variable for a single industry floor — set your own target in the tracker from your last two months.

If connect rate is under 10%

Below the floor means you're not reaching decision makers — better opening lines, better timing, better targeting.

If close rate is under 10%

Below the floor means proposals aren't closing — objection handling, case studies, urgency, a follow-up sequence.
