What belongs in a project status report?

It is important for every sales manager to prepare a regular project status report to ensure that the team is working effectively and that goals are being achieved. A project status report is a summary of a project's progress that includes data and information that represents the status of the project and its success or failure. In this blog post, we'll take a look at what belongs in a sales project status report.

1. Introduction

‍

In the introduction, the sales manager should summarize what the project is about and which goals are to be achieved. This should also include a project overview that contains the most important information about the project, such as the scope of work, the project deadline, the budget and the people involved in the project.

The main part of the project status report should be a summary of the progress of the project. All important events that take place in the course of the project should be documented here. This includes developments in the sales process, obstacles that slow down the project, and progress made to achieve the goal.

3. Business goals

‍

To better track the progress of the project, the sales manager should define the business goals and success of the project. This could be used, for example, to increase sales, increase the pipeline, improve customer relationships, open up new geographical markets or develop new customer profiles. These goals should be reviewed and updated regularly to ensure that the project stays on track.

4. Visualization

‍

Another important part of the project status report in sales is the visual presentation of the results. The dashboard should make the progress of the project transparent and enable medical monitoring. By using graphics and tables, the sales manager can show the team how the project is progressing and quickly see where changes need to be made.

5. Summary

‍

The final part of the project status report should be a summary of all important information that went into the progress report. This should also include consolidation, warnings, and measures and recommendations for action. The summary should be short and concise so that it is easy for the team to read and share to make changes.
