Lowest average score
Cold calling and getting past gatekeepers remain the two most challenging exercises for B2B sales reps. Closing scores improve significantly after 15+ simulations.
Frequency of occurrence in analyzed simulations
Average gain on overall score based on simulation volume
Bar widths illustrate the relative magnitude of gains compared to the observed maximum (+41%), for reference.
The strongest progression occurs between the 5th and the 30th simulation. Beyond 50 sessions, gains become marginal, suggesting a natural mastery threshold.
Aggregated averages across the six axes of the Pitchbase radar (scale 0 to 100)
The typical profile shows a radar stronger on pitch and discovery than on opening and negotiation. The opening axis remains the lowest on average, confirming the value of targeted training on the first seconds of a call.
