Predictive Analytics
Definition
The use of statistical models and machine learning to analyze historical data and predict future outcomes like deal close probability, churn risk, or lead conversion likelihood.
Predictive analytics in GTM applies machine learning to historical CRM data, product usage, and engagement signals to score leads, forecast revenue, identify churn risk, and recommend next-best actions. Unlike descriptive analytics (what happened) or diagnostic analytics (why it happened), predictive analytics answers what is likely to happen. This enables proactive intervention -- reaching out to at-risk accounts before they churn or prioritizing the leads most likely to convert.
