I Spend Every Friday Building Sales Reports in Spreadsheets

You export data from the CRM, copy it into Excel, build the charts, format the slides, email it to leadership. Every. Single. Week. This is several hours of manual work that adds no value — just translating information from one format to another.

Frequently Asked Questions

Sales managers report spending 20–30% of their time on administrative tasks including reporting. Automating weekly reports can recover 5–8 hours per manager per week — time that can be spent coaching reps and working deals instead.
HELM automatically generates: weekly pipeline reports (stage distribution, new deals, stage changes), activity reports (calls, emails, meetings per rep), forecast reports (committed, best case, worst case), performance dashboards (win rate, deal size, cycle time by rep), and deal health summaries.
Yes — HELM can schedule automated email digests to any stakeholder with a summary of key metrics. Executives can receive a weekly revenue summary without logging into HELM; managers can receive daily team performance highlights.
Building reports in Salesforce requires configuring report types, choosing fields, building filters, and often significant admin knowledge. HELM's reports are pre-built for common sales use cases and update in real time — no configuration required for standard sales metrics.
