Overview
Uncover untapped opportunity at customer accounts by calculating their user saturation rate. Determine the total number of potential users at an account (by counting all the contacts that have job titles, functions, and levels consistent with your typical user base), then divide the number of their current user licenses into the number of total potential users. Focus your efforts on expanding accounts that have relatively low saturation rates, but show enough adoption to indicate that they value your product. Start by focusing on accounts with a user saturation rate between 10 and 60 percent.

Driver Definitions
Conversion Rate (CR) This metric indicates the proportion of leads that convert into customers. A higher conversion rate suggests a more effective engagement and follow-up strategy.
Average Deal Size (ADS) This refers to the average revenue generated from each successful deal. Maximizing the average deal size is essential for increasing overall revenue, especially when the number of conversions is limited.
Volume of Low Saturation Accounts (VLSA) This refers to the total number of customer accounts identified as having low user saturation rates and thus presenting potential for expansion. It provides the base number of target accounts for this expansion strategy.
