## Formula

Capacity = (ramped reps + ramping reps × ramp %) × quota × expected attainment.

- Methodology: ramp-adjusted headcount capacity model.
- Ramp productivity and attainment come from your own history — nothing is assumed.
- Attrition and hiring during the period are not modelled.
- Capacity = (ramped reps + ramping reps × ramp %) × quota × expected attainment.
- Inputs used: Currency (symbol only, never converted), Fully ramped reps, Reps still ramping, Full quota per rep for the period, Average productivity of ramping reps (your estimate), Expected attainment (your historical figure).

## Inputs

- Currency (symbol only, never converted)
- Fully ramped reps
- Reps still ramping
- Full quota per rep for the period
- Average productivity of ramping reps (your estimate)
- Expected attainment (your historical figure)

## Worked example: A growing team

8 ramped, 4 ramping at 50%, $150,000 quota, 85% attainment.
1. Equivalent reps = 8 + 2 = 10.
2. 10 × 150,000 × 0.85 = $1,275,000.

## Common questions

### Where does ramp % come from?

Average attainment of new reps in their first months, from your own data. Check the formula, example, and limitations on this page before using the result for a real sales decision.

### Why apply attainment?

Quota assumes 100%; teams rarely all hit it. Use your measured average.

### Is there a good benchmark?

Benchmarks vary widely by market, deal size and sales motion. This page shows only your own figure and does not judge it.

### How do I use the Sales Capacity Calculator?

Enter the required values for Currency (symbol only, never converted), Fully ramped reps, Reps still ramping, Full quota per rep for the period, Average productivity of ramping reps (your estimate), and the other fields shown. The calculator applies the formula on this page and shows the main result with any supporting breakdown so you can check the arithmetic.

### What formula does the Sales Capacity Calculator use?

Capacity = (ramped reps + ramping reps × ramp %) × quota × expected attainment. The visible formula section above lists the calculation path and the edge cases the page handles, so the result can be checked without relying on the form alone.

### Can the Sales Capacity Calculator be used for exact decisions?

Use it as a calculation aid, not as a substitute for checking the underlying rule, contract, policy, or professional advice that applies to your situation. When a result depends on local rules, personal details, prices, or dates, enter those values yourself and confirm them before acting.

## Limitations and assumptions

- Single average ramp rate.
- No attrition or mid-period hires.
- Results are educational estimates built only from the figures you enter. They are not personalised investment, tax, legal or accounting advice. Rates, growth and discount assumptions are always yours to choose.
- The result depends on the values you enter for this sales capacity calculator; it does not supply missing rates, rules, prices, dates, or assumptions for you.
