MWITA-SBO-2026-006 · Evidence B · P1
Field-service technicians initiated about 10% more selling activity in situations with approximately 22% lower success probability, while promising failed out-of-warranty service visits were comparatively underused for selling.
What this does not establish
Single industrial-machine supplier and one market with older data; does not transfer directly to SaaS or pure inside-sales models.
Counterevidence & uncertainty
Technicians' activity was highest where sales success was lower, showing that more service-to-sales activity is not equivalent to better opportunity allocation.
What would change the reading
Track replication, revised records, denominators, confidence intervals, context changes and deployed commercial or human outcomes.
