# Level of Detail

> Understand the Level of Detail score and use it to coach your team toward stronger, buyer-aligned business cases

Every business case in Minoa has a **Level of Detail** rating: **Low**, **Medium**, or **High**. This rating reflects how mature and complete a business case is — from a bare-bones draft to a fully developed, buyer-engaged asset.

Level of Detail gives sales leaders a quick read on which deals have strong value narratives and which ones need attention. It's not an exact science — think of it as a directional indicator that helps you prioritize coaching and pipeline reviews.

## What goes into the score

The Level of Detail score considers several factors that, in practice, correlate with stronger business cases and better deal outcomes:

* **Collaboration**: Are collaborators — especially buyers and champions — actively engaged with the business case?
* **Use cases**: Have specific value drivers been added to quantify the impact?
* **Executive summary**: Has the rep drafted an overview that frames the value story?
* **Scenarios**: Are there multiple scenarios (e.g., conservative vs. best case) to give the buyer options?
* **Investment and pricing**: Is the financial ask defined so the buyer can evaluate ROI?

<Info>Not all factors are weighted equally. Customer engagement is the strongest signal of a healthy business case — and it's weighted accordingly.</Info>

## Why customer engagement matters most

Our data shows that **business cases with active buyer engagement forecast more accurately**. When a champion or stakeholder is corresponding, giving feedback, and engaging with the content, it's a strong signal that the deal is real and moving forward.

Some teams describe it as a "lie detector" for internal forecasts — if the customer is truly engaged with the business case, the deal is far more likely to close as forecast. If there's no external engagement, that's worth investigating during pipeline reviews.

<Tip>Coach reps to share business cases with their champions early and often. External engagement is the single biggest driver of a strong Level of Detail score — and a strong deal.</Tip>

## Where to find Level of Detail

**Home page**

Each business case on your home page displays a Level of Detail indicator with one, two, or three bars corresponding to Low, Medium, and High.

<Tip>Use the **Level of Detail** filter on the home page to quickly segment business cases by Low, Medium, or High. This is a powerful way to identify which deals need more work before presenting to buyers.</Tip>

<Info>Business cases that have been marked as excluded from analytics do not display their Level of Detail score on the home page.</Info>

**CRM**

If you have a CRM integration enabled, the Level of Detail is synced automatically. Your CRM also exposes the underlying numeric score, which gives you more granular data for dashboards and reporting.

## Using Level of Detail for coaching

Level of Detail is most powerful as a coaching tool for sales managers. Here are practical ways to use it:

**Identify business cases that need attention**

Filter for **Low** Level of Detail to surface business cases that are still in early stages. These are opportunities to coach reps on fleshing out their value narrative before it reaches the buyer.

**Drive buyer engagement**

If a business case has strong internal content but no external collaboration, it's not yet doing its job. Encourage reps to invite their champion into the business case — even early-stage engagement improves deal outcomes.

**Use the numeric score in CRM for reporting**

While the Low / Medium / High labels are great for quick prioritization, the numeric score available in your CRM gives you finer-grained data for dashboards and reports. Track trends over time to see if your team is building more comprehensive business cases.

**Look at it directionally**

Don't obsess over the exact score. Instead, use Level of Detail as a directional signal during pipeline reviews. Is this a low-detail case on a high-value deal? That's a coaching moment. Is a medium jumping to high? The rep is doing the right things.

<Note>Level of Detail updates automatically as the business case evolves — no manual input required. As reps add content and engage buyers, the score reflects their progress in real time.</Note>
