How do you build multi-touch attribution for 18-month B2B enterprise sales cycles?
Direct Answer
To build multi-touch attribution for 18-month B2B enterprise sales cycles, focus on one measurable outcome, a single owner (RevOps or revenue ops), and a CRM-native implementation so reporting stays honest. Document the current state, define 3–5 fields or reports that prove progress, pilot on one segment, then scale.
Steps: audit tools and data → design the workflow → automate only what is validated manually → train the team → review weekly against a Pulse metric (conversion, cycle time, or data quality).

B --> C[Pilot one team or segment]
C --> D[Automate validated steps]
D --> E[Measure and iterate]
What good looks like
- Clear definition of done (field fill rate, sequence enrollment, forecast accuracy).
- No shadow spreadsheets — source of truth stays in CRM or your RevOps stack.
- Rollback plan if automation misfires.
Common mistakes
- Automating before the process works manually.
- Skipping data hygiene (duplicates, bad titles, missing owners).
- Measuring activity instead of revenue outcomes.
Bottom line
Treat this as RevOps product work: small bets, CRM-first, measurable wins.
