Your CRM Already Has the Data. Dear Lucy Provides the Visibility.

Most businesses don't have a revenue data problem.

They have a revenue visibility problem.

Your CRM already contains the information needed to forecast future revenue. Deals, products, subscriptions and billing schedules all describe what's expected to happen next.

Dear Lucy automatically transforms that commercial data into a live revenue forecast, giving leadership a clear view of where the business is heading.

From Deal Value to Revenue Visibility

Most CRM reports tell you what you've sold.

Leadership needs to understand what that business means for the months ahead.

Dear Lucy combines recurring subscriptions, one-time services and future pipeline into a single revenue forecast, so you can answer questions like:

  • How much revenue do we expect next month?

  • How much is recurring versus one-time?

  • Which products and services generate future revenue?

  • Are we on track to reach our revenue targets?

  • What does next quarter or next year look like?

Instead of maintaining spreadsheet models, you can answer those questions directly from your CRM.
