What is Sales Cycle Length?

Sales Cycle Length measures the average time it takes to close a deal from the first interaction to the signed contract. Shorter cycles generally mean better efficiency, but the ideal length varies by deal size, industry, and sales motion. Tracking this over time helps identify bottlenecks in the sales process.
