Revenue teams
Open the board. See the four deals that need you today.
A rep carrying thirty open deals cannot track thirty reply gaps. Macklore does that part, ranks what changed, and hands you a draft for each deal that has started to drift. The rest of your pipeline stays quiet until it needs you.
Where deals leak
Three reasons good reps lose deals they were winning.
None of them are about skill. They are about capacity, and capacity is a tooling problem.
01
You cannot hold forty deals in your head
The deals you spoke to this week are the ones you remember. The silent ones are invisible, and silent is exactly how a deal dies.
02
Admin time is time not selling
Logging calls, updating fields and writing notes to tell the CRM what already happened is the least valuable hour in a rep's day.
03
Generic reminders get muted
A task that says follow up with Hexfield gives you nothing. You still have to reconstruct the thread before you can write anything useful.
A day with Macklore
Thirty minutes of pipeline work, then back to selling.
This is the rhythm teams settle into by the second week. It is short on purpose.
First ten minutes
Open the today list
Four or five deals, ranked, each with one line explaining why it is there. Not a board of forty cards that all look identical.
Next twenty
Clear the review queue
Read each suggested follow-up, check the reasoning, edit what you want and send. Most take under a minute because the draft already quotes the thread.
Through the day
React to changes as they happen
A proposal opened three times this morning moves that deal to the top of your list with a close-window question already drafted.
End of day
Nothing to write up
Calls, mails and document views are already on the records. You add judgement where it matters and go home.

Twenty seven other open deals are quiet today and stay out of your way.
The reply-gap clock
Every open conversation carries a counter: days since the buyer last replied, next to the normal gap for that deal. Once the counter passes the norm, the deal starts climbing your list.
What you actually get
Six things that exist on day one, not on a roadmap.
- A reply-gap clock on every open conversation, so silence is visible
- Follow-up drafts that quote the unanswered question, not a template
- An alert when a champion who always replied goes quiet
- Single-threaded deals flagged before they become a late-stage surprise
- Document opens and forwards, so you know when a proposal is circulating
- No field updates required to keep the pipeline accurate
The best outcome is a boring one.
No heroic end-of-quarter rescue because nothing was allowed to go quiet for three weeks. Deals either move or they are honestly marked as dead, and both of those are better than a commit list full of hope.
You find out on day nine, not in the post-mortem
You know when your proposal is being circulated
You never start a recovery email from a blank page
Questions
What reps ask in the first week.
The score reflects buyer behaviour, not rep effort, and it is calculated the same way for everyone. Reps generally find it works in their favour, because a deal that went quiet despite seven follow-ups is now visibly a buyer problem rather than an activity problem.
No. Keep your mailbox, your calendar and your stages. Macklore reads activity and adds a health read. The one new habit is opening the today list before the board.
Dismiss it with a reason. It will not reappear until the deal's activity changes, and the dismissal shapes how aggressively similar suggestions are raised for you later.
Yes. Call activity, duration and whether follow-up actions agreed on a call actually happened all feed the score. Teams that sell mostly by phone usually see the stage-dwell and next-step rules doing the heavy lifting.
Three deals in this sample board have a draft waiting for review.
Tomorrow morning, start with four deals instead of forty.
Connect a mailbox, import your open pipeline, and the first ranked list is ready the same afternoon. No workflow rebuild, no new fields to maintain.
