With 10 reps at an average quota of $1,000,000, your team is currently generating $6,000,000 in bookings at 60% attainment. If you can increase attainment to 80%, your team could generate $8,000,000 – unlocking an additional $2,000,000 in annual revenue.

What Is Quota Attainment?

Quota attainment is the percentage of a sales rep's or team's assigned quota that has been achieved within a given period. It's one of the most important metrics for measuring sales performance and forecasting revenue.

Quota Attainment (%) = (Actual Sales / Quota) × 100

For example, if a rep has a $1,000,000 annual quota and closes $600,000 in deals, their quota attainment is 60%.

Why Quota Attainment Matters
  • Revenue Predictability - Consistent attainment across your team makes forecasting more accurate and reliable.
  • Headcount Planning - Understanding attainment patterns helps you plan hiring and capacity more effectively.
  • Enablement ROI - Tracking attainment improvements shows the impact of training and tools investments.
  • Ramp Expectations - Setting realistic attainment targets for new hires helps manage expectations and reduce churn.
  • Board & Investor Conversations - Attainment metrics are key indicators of sales team health and go-to-market efficiency.
Your Performance Gap in Dollars

The revenue gap calculated above represents the cost of under-execution. This isn't hypothetical money – it's revenue you're already paying for through headcount, quotas, and infrastructure. The question is: how much of that investment is actually being realized?

Most sales teams have a significant gap between their average performers and top performers. Closing even part of that gap can unlock substantial additional revenue without adding headcount.

How to Improve Quota Attainment (Without Adding Headcount)

Reduce Ramp Time

Get new reps to full productivity faster with structured onboarding, playbooks, and access to institutional knowledge from day one.

Turn Methodology into Real-Time Guidance

Don't just train on MEDDIC or your sales process – embed it into the tools reps use every day so it shows up in the flow of work.

Capture and Reuse Tribal Knowledge

Your top performers know things that aren't written down anywhere. Capture their winning approaches and make them available to the whole team.

Automate Meeting Prep

Reps spend hours researching accounts and preparing for calls. AI can do this in seconds, freeing up time for actual selling.

Provide In-the-Moment Coaching

Don't wait for quarterly reviews. Give reps actionable feedback and guidance while deals are still in play.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is quota attainment?
Quota attainment is the percentage of an assigned sales quota that a rep or team has achieved. It's calculated by dividing actual sales by the quota target and multiplying by 100. For example, a rep who closes $600K against a $1M quota has 60% attainment.
How do you calculate quota attainment?
Quota attainment is calculated with a simple formula: (Actual Sales ÷ Quota) × 100 = Attainment %. For a team, you can calculate individual attainment for each rep and then average them, or calculate total team sales divided by total team quota.
What is a good quota attainment rate?
Industry benchmarks suggest that 60-70% of reps hitting quota is healthy for most B2B sales organizations. However, this varies significantly by industry, deal size, and sales cycle length. The key is to track your own trends and continuously work to improve.
How can I improve quota attainment?
Focus on execution levers like faster ramp time for new reps, better deal qualification, improved win rates on qualified opportunities, and scaling the behaviors of your top performers across the team. Tools like sales intelligence platforms can help automate and scale these improvements.
Do I need to hire more reps to improve attainment?
Not necessarily. Often the biggest gains come from improving the performance of your existing team. If you can move average performers closer to top-performer levels, you can unlock significant additional revenue without the cost and risk of new hires.
