How to set up Deal Risk Triggers 😁

Once we hover over the Yellow boxes within the Deal Risk column, it will show you the potential deal risk within each opportunity.

Deal Risk can be customized per team basis.

To enable this feature we must do the following:

  • Click Settings 
  • Go to Organization
  • Go to Teams
  • Click All Teams
  • Click Deal Risk   

    (Follow these simple steps)

2. Now that you have selected Deal Risk, a box should have appeared on your screen as shown below.

Now looking at this box, this is where you will tailor the boxes to what's important for your team. This will be tailored based on your sales process, your sale length of cycle or how you like to run your sales motion. 

You can create individual Deal Risk as a team as shown below. 


Cheat sheet to understand what each box represents

No Recent Activity (In days) If there has been no activity with client for X days, it creates a deal risk.

No Response (In days) 
If client hasn't responded in X days, it creates a deal risk.

Deal Value Decreased (in %) If a Deal value decreases by more than X%, it creates a deal risk.


Single Threaded Deal (number of contacts) Define how many contacts need to be actively engaged at a minimum. Single point of contact is a major risk generally. 


No Future Activity Scheduled - If there are no future activities related to a deal, It creates a deal risk.


Close Date Passed - If a deal goes passed a closed date, It creates a deal risk.

Competitors Mentioned - Turning this on will mean that Jiminny tracks all competitors that you've identified (when you've curated a list in Themes -> Deal Risk, Topic -> Competitors) and automatically triggers a deal risk when they are mentioned in a customer interaction. If you want to exclude any competitors, you need to manually enter them in the box shown below:

No Change In Deal Stage For (In days) If a deal hasn't been updated in X amount of days, a deal risk will be created.
