Once the reporting requirements are defined, the next step is to gather the relevant sales data from your CRM or any other source where the sales information is stored. With ChatGPT, you can create a tailored sales report template that aligns with your specific needs, including metrics, formatting, and the desired period or sales channels.

How can I use the collected sales data attached to generate monthly sales reports? Please provide a 1 page template based on these specific metrics that can be shared with the sales leadership team to populate at the end of each month.
