Generate a report template that compares win rate, ACV, and margin across your agency's service lines.
foundermanagerAdvanced⏱ Sharper investment decisions worth 5–10 pts of agency margin
When to use
Use monthly or quarterly when you sell more than one service (SEO + paid + web, etc.) and want to know which line actually drives the business. This template puts win rate, ACV, retention, and margin side-by-side so you can double down — or kill — a service.
The prompt
You are a sales ops lead at a multi-service digital marketing agency. Agency: [AGENCY_NAME] — [SERVICES] | Reporting period: [REPORTING_PERIOD] | Audience: founder + leadership | KPIs: [KPIS] | Service lines to compare: [SERVICE_LINES] Design a service-line performance REPORT TEMPLATE that compares each service line head-to-head so leadership can decide where to invest, raise prices, or sunset. - One page summary + one detail page per service line max - Must include 'What's the action?' — invest / hold / fix / sunset call per service - Apples-to-apples metrics across all lines - Include delivery margin if data available (sales without margin = misleading) Markdown template with: (1) Summary table (rows = service lines; cols = pipeline $, win rate, ACV, gross margin, 12-mo retention, NPS), (2) Headline (3 bullets — biggest signal), (3) Per-service detail block (one per line: trend, top win, top loss, biggest issue), (4) What's the action? — recommendation per service (invest/hold/fix/sunset) with rationale. 1-line prompt per section.
Variables

Pro tips
- Watch the margin column closely — a high-win-rate, low-margin service can quietly sink the agency.
- Pair this with the Lost-Deal Report tags to see if losses cluster on one service.
- Run it BEFORE pricing changes — never the other way around.
