Who reads it

The SDR manager reads it every week. The account executive lead reads the held and accepted rows. Sales operations checks the definitions once a month.

Keep the definitions fixed

Write down what counts as a meeting held and a meeting accepted. Do not change them mid-quarter. The meeting to opportunity rate guide shows the formula.
